Ok im so sorry i have been terrible at keeping track of doing a blog . its been a while since i have written one. so today i have been really sore . instead of my legs hurting , it has moved to my arms and ribs. im super tired and didnt want to drag my butt out of bed today.
 sitting in bed i started going over all my symptoms and when they started ect ect . i realized that even though im paying a dr to figure this ms crap out for me i need to do as much research as i can to get a complete diagnosis ... your probably thinking i thought you already have MS? yes the dr said i do , im not fulling convinced cause i do not have lesions anywhere !!!! i do have what they call O bands in my spinal fluid which people get with MS and inflammation in my fluid . still no lesions though. so while sitting here i thought it has to be all hormonal . i have to have a imbalance somewhere .
reason being is because:
i had my son in june 2012 - breastfed him for four and a half months and didnt have my first period till december ( ms symptoms started on the 28th) ever three weeks since then i have had a flare or relapse . its always one week from having my period . weird right ? and yes ive had hormones checked , i think it needs to be done when i have a flare though to see what my levels are doing. three months ago i started birth control to help with my ovarian cysts and yet the last three flares have been the worst i have ever had!!!! so the birth control isnt helping its making it worse. i cant help to think that there is just something hormonal and i need to fix it . i called my drs both neuro and family dr and i asked them if i could have a better test done on all my hormones during a flare . if i have to figure this out on my own i will do my best . well thats all i have for today im pooped . thanks for reading .

so today i have had so much energy but my legs hurt so much that i dont want to do anything but of course i do anyways. right now im sitting here doing my second iv steroid. i get a aweful taste in my mouth like im eating something metal. i cant wait to get this iv out.

so back in december i was watching a movie with my husband , batman and i stood up amd my right leg got heavy like i had put on my snow boot. i thought well thats weird .

hi there,
my name is kim and i recently was diagnosed with a illness called multiple sclerosis and it has been a bit of a struggle . not only is it a struggle physically but mentally it is very frustrating . i created this post because itll help me to let go some of my stresses but also it will hopefully help those either with ms or if they know someone with it. we have to find a way to let go and get out some of our fears and our discomforts of this disease. im only 24 and when i got the news i had ms i was completely crushed. i had watched my step mom suffer through it and now my mom has lupus that is another autoimmune disease. all autoimmune diseases are hereditary . she has pain every day and has to deal with way more than i have to but when im feeling down i call her first . i can relate with her in so many ways with these diseases so we can vent . today is the first of august of 2013 and im currently in the hospital hooked to a IV drip for steroids. they are much needed and i just want to feel better cause i have been hurting so bad. soory im a terrible blogger and i jump stories quite a bit and i never write in order so im sorry for that.


i will write on a day when i have time to tell you about when my symptoms first started and how it led up to the diagnosis . but for now im going to relax. see you soon
