Had a bit of a stomach bug the last couple of days. Whenever I am slightly down because of illness my MS seems to flare up a bit and I get more achy and wobbly on my feet etc.
It’s just one of those things that happens, so not really anything to worry about or do anything about. I’m lucky that I don’t get ill very often, quite a rare occurance for me.
A few days rest and I’ll be back to normal, whatever normal is classed as now lol!
I don’t really bother with pain killers nowadays, they don’t really do much anyway. I find that if I just take it easy and rest a bit I tend to not really notice the pain so much.
It’s not a case of trying to be brave or ignoring the problem. It’s just a case of getting on with my life the best I can.
It’s not nice having MS, but it is what it is. Nothing I can do about it, just got to keep my fingers crossed some really intelligent scientist comes up with a cure in the near future.
I don’t really get stressed about it, that really wouldn’t help. I will always just carry on with the fight, way too stubborn to let it get the better of me.
So please don’t worry about me too much. I’m not writing stuff like this looking for sympathy or to cause concern. I am doing this purely to get my story down, and if it inspires anybody to never quit then I’ve played my part.
Only a short blog today, just thought I would have a day off from posting old blogs.
If anybody has any questions about me or my MS then ask away, I don’t mind. Or if there is anything in particular you would like me to write about then just let me know.
