Sooo I was doing my NYT crossword today. Had no idea. Read along and see who I am. Also couldn’t do the crossword for the last 2 years because my hands shook from MS. So glad I can write again. Anyway I’m figuring out the theme I think. Something to do with “ er”?
@1capplegate Having MS is exhausting. I was just diagnosed with MS. I’ve been taking care of my quadriplegic sister with MS for 15 yrs. What are the chances that I’d have it too. It didn’t stop me taking care of my sissy. 🙏🙏
@1capplegate I have MS and if you ever need to chat , reach out ❤️
@1capplegate Yes. ER in 12 boxes. I missed perfection by writing Rami/Papae vs. Rumi/Pupae. 😪
@1capplegate Please read the reviews and watch Living Proof on Amazon Prime. I can't tell you how many people we hear from whose lives have changed dramatically for the positive after their MS diagnosis. amazon.com/Living-Proof-M…
@1capplegate (1)Christina...sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I was you in 2012 at diagnosis. Lost eyesight in left eye. walking issues(veering left) Zero balance, stiff body and in pain. I opted against taking the immune suppressing drugs and I received no relief from steroids..I researched
@1capplegate It's a bit cold for me to sleep, even with pajamas and a thick blanket. Curious about your MS diagnosis. Have you adjusted your diet, as well, to combat your symptoms? My brother (close friend) was diagnosed and had to make major lifestyle changes.
@1capplegate Sleeping problems is a MS symptom. I have it. I have been on Ambien for 24 yrs. No side effects like driving while on Ambiem. I take a 1/2 tab and when I wake up once after 5-6 hrs, I take another 1/4 tablet. Also, tylenol PM helps and Tizanidine. My neuro prescribes them.
@1capplegate I also set TV to go to sleep, turn sound on real low and watch an bunch of old mindless comedies. In my case I watch The MTM Show from YouTube. On sound level 2 or 3. I can barely hear but it ALWAYS puts me to sleep if I close my eyes. But meds helps. It is a common MS symp.
@1capplegate Same here it’s only 2:57am I’m watching 80’s MTV videos Wtf. No pills just fall asleep when I can. To many horror stories with sleeping pills.
@1capplegate Chris - get some rest! But glad you’re able to the puzzle. I’m off to sleep too. We need to let our bodies repair for tomorrow. Night! 😴
