It is just kicking my butt. My legs are like jelly and my knees were buckling earlier. I worked hard my two 12 hours nights Friday and Saturday, but I can't believe that would be it alone. I knocked myself out last night to ensure good sleep, but I still feel like crap. Geezus, I hate this shit. And to know it doesn't get better ever! Just worse. Pisses me off really. I have so much stuff to do this week. And to top it off, 8 inches of more shitty crappy snow again tonight. I need green grass and spring flowers NOW! And perhaps a new pair of legs, just for today, anyway. Like my piggy pic? That's how I feel. Except that he's cute. I took that last year at our county fair.

Oh, honey...but how do you REALLY feel?!? LOL
I just love your directness in expressing yourself, even though it comes from feeling so very awful...and I'm so sorry to read you are experiencing such CRAP right now. It DOES suck...like a shop vac...I commiserate with you. May you feel a relief of pressure under the knuckles of your MS soon!

Thanks Linda, I too hope you are on the mend. It amazes me how a little thing to people without MS can absolutely wipe us MSers out for very long periods of time
Callie, I was just reading through the history of your MS and thinking how I wish I had found your blogsite last year. I had been having a variety of neurological problems that looked on the surface like MS. I searched the Internet for personal accounts like yours, but for some reason could never find anything. My brain scan was relatively clean, and my neurologist left off with me in a "let's wait and see" mode. The only real diagnosis I got was chronic nerve damage in the neck, which was detected in an EMG. He wanted to do a full MRI on my spine, but by then I was tired of tests and said no thanks. I'm doing fine now with only some occasional vertigo. I can see how blogsites like this are very beneficial for those with MS. You definitely need a community so that you can know someone is in your corner, even when idiots say things like, "Well, you look fine to me." I hope you have better days ahead.
