”You are something magical”
Remembering this today, especially after receiving 2 letters from my neurologist via my GP

The letters are from my latest routine #appointment with #neuro for my #ms review which was back in September.
The letters speak briefly about my MS but mainly about my weight gain

I know this is part of a medical practitioners job but I could have cried whilst reading it!
He says about how we discussed my increase in antidepressant which I also use for pain relief and the possibility of this being a reason for the rapid increase in weight.
Well Mr hoity toity, I’m doing the best I can right now & I’m happy with that!
Looking forward to my lovely Yoga teachers return from her jollies so we can make a start on me being one of her health coach case studies.

The things I’m grateful for that may seem odd to others

I’m grateful to my MS Nurses even though they still haven’t returned my calls 2.5 weeks later

I’m grateful to my GP even though ‘he’ was the one that compared me to another MS patient regarding my inability to work AND has just prescribed me what I like to call ‘Satans Smarties’ aka Methylprednisolone – Steroids

I’m grateful for all my wonderful friends & family that notice when i start to walk a bit ‘odd’ – actually I’ll correct that, very ‘odd’ even when i don’t notice it myself! If it wasn’t for you guys I’d still be happily walking along like I’ve lost my horse or had a very unfortunate accident in my underwear!

I’m also very grateful for all my wonderful friends/family that will have to endure me for the next week or so as I begin my course of Oral steroids! (yes, I said Oral! Who sniggered?)

I WILL be grateful if all of my wonderful friends/family could resist the temptation to bring cakes, biscuits, sweets & most importantly chocolate round if you come to visit whilst I’m resting at home. No matter how many times I beg, plead or even if I bribe you to bring me treats, please resist!
