I found out Monday that my MS is active and even though the neuro did not explain it me he told me he wants to treat it aggressively. Which will be Tysarbi.  Ok cool I have thought about this for awhile. For yesterday I had something happen that caused me to call my doc, I could not drive I was driving at the time and I had to actually move my foot with my hand from the gas pedal to the brake at first then it got easier.  I was scared never happened before and I stayed in and rested all day and called doctor after I tried to do dishes and water plants and walking was nest to impossible.  They want me to come into Milwaukee to get IV steroids and then i can finish them closer to home.  It is starting to get better already it is so weird.  He did increase my Requip and that appears to help me.     

Now comes the venting,  it is my friend again I know I should dump her we have been friends for ever but she is pushing me to the end.  She asked for a w/c at neuro she did not want to pull out the walker, then she hung onto the w/c like she was my caregiver at the doctor's office.  Then she was carrying on about how much steroids I was taking now.  I had just taken a small amount of oral ones and now they wanted to start me on iv ones I think she wants some of them.  I will get the speech about jumping ontop of all of the energy they will give me and tear into my house and clean it clean it.  I do believe that defeats the purporse.  I am trying to get a ride to Milwaukee and my daughter might or might not take me she just needs to answer the phone.   I will make it to the doctor!  I have taken myself off almost all percocets, I had found myself finding them wanted not needed for pain.   It was time to stop taking them.  Oh off to do the dishes, I may not walk very well but the dishes must be done and I got out frozen fruit and I need to make fruit salad.
