I think my face is less numb than yesterday!!!!

*celebration dance*

I certainly hope I feel better, it's graduation week... :(  Must work.  Must work.

But, I got bumped up for my appointment with the Harvard MS specialist!  Yay!  I still see my neuro at Bassett, but, he wanted me to see the specialist.  I guess that's rather nice to have a neuro want me to see an ms specialist, I hope I get lots of answers.

I had an alarming side effect of my Copaxone injection the other night, but have not gotten an answer from anyone, not even Shared Solutions.  Pfffft.

I took my injection, right, and I had that weird immediate flushing, throat closed, panic, mind-numbing stomach pain, and rapid heartbeat thing.  But, it only lasts for about 30 seconds.

Thought that was over.

I go to bed.

I start shaking.  Violently.  All over, from my toes to my face, teeth chattering (it made me bite my tongue..).  I looked like I had Parkinsons... (I mean that in a nice way, I'm just saying that is exactly what it is).

SO!

I lay there trying to sleep but could not, because I had to concentrate on not shaking.  My poor cat jumped on the bed and put his paw on my jerky arm.  Awww, Goomba!!

So, it was like, seizure territory.  I looked it up and apparently nobody knows why, and nobody in the MS community of doctors of Copaxone people will say anything about it.

My brain will soon explode with Gummi Bears.

I was looking down... and my hair is short!

Anyways...

That's right...

My Bassett neuro said they will probably discuss with me the possibility of changing my meds, but I'm scared.  Do I take the pill?  But there is not much research on that one... do I take interferons and have flu-like symptoms half of the week?

I don't want to not feel good anymore.  I need to work :(

But!  I will not let it get me down, life is good!  Have my family!  I will have a house some day!  A puppo!  A cat!  And far far into the future, a nice man by my side.  Preferably older and more mature.  Yes.

I have to go now!

Love always,

Jaime Lee
