Tecfidera, here I come!

Hello!

I went to my Latham NY MS specialist appointment!  I like this place.  I also realized how pretty Saratoga Springs is.  I would totally live there.

He says I should change my medication now, and that I probably have become allergic to it.

He suggests a twice-daily pill!  Imagine?!  No more injections every day!  Wow.

That will be a huge change for me... so, I've injected roughly 2,555 times now.  I would love if that could be over with... My skin has formed so many leathery bumpeys that the shot won't go into my skin most times.

So!  Tecfidera.  I think I should listen to the man with the Harvard Degree.  Yes :)  He was very knowledgeable, I wish I could have talked to him for hours and hours.  He did devote two hours to me, which was so great.

He is also setting me up with a Urologist, and they will do an exam to see if I am emptying my bladder every time I pee, because he does not think I do, which could make me have infections, which could be why I feel so lousy.  Then he says I should learn how to self-catharize.  :(  Sad Nom Nom.

Sounds scary, but, I gotta do it :)

Then he said I have a lot more brain lesions and obvious spinal lesions too, given my symptoms.  And he said my hearing problem is in my brain, not my ear.  I am not crazy :)

So!  Holy World of Changing Circumstances, Batman!

I will prevail!

Love always,

Jaime Lee
