Met with the neurologist today. MS is not a curable thing, but can be (hopefully) controlled. The treatment is shots. No pill has been developed yet, although there are clinical trials going on to produce it. There are basically two types of shots. Interferon and a synthetic compound. There are differences between the two treatments, and different side effects. The synthetic compound seems to have less side effects than the others, so Betsy has decided top go with that. It’s a daily shot and comes pre filled. It also has an AutoJect device that looks like a light saber from Star Wars.

For years, my wife has been experiencing problems with what we thought to be some rather strange medical ailments. things from random pains to limbs falling asleep for no apparent reason. On one occasion while walking, her leg went numb, making it difficult to feel where she was walking.

Taking care of posting and writing is not an easy task while at home. There are so many things that need to be taken care of when I return from the desert, that it just takes up too much time.

My goal is to try to write something at least once a week, but so far, it’s just a little bit hard to do. I’ll make a concerted effort to find something to blog about this week and post it.

As the Brit’s I work with say…

Cheers!
