Somehow this day felt uberlong.
I found several MS books I would like to read. I want to order them from Amazon.
Sensory:
-Pins and needles: 2, left leg this evening
-Tingles: 1
-Paresthesias (burning): 2, left foot
-Paresthesias (other): 0
-Numbness: 2
-Vision: 3, still blurry, some stabbing pain in my left eye
-Nerve pain: 2, a couple of times in my left leg--but fine most of the day
Motor:
-Walking: 1
-Sore muscles: 2
-Fine motor: 2
-Weak muscles: 5, I thought I would collapse a couple of times.. like I was on the edge of it most of the day. I pushed it when I was weak and tired, because I wanted to spend time with an old friend.
-Spasticity: 4
Cognitive:
-Language processing: 1, some paraphasias, which I was able to detect and correct
-Memory: 0
-Attention: 0
-Confusion: 0
General:
-Fatigue: 6--I got tired enough to take a nap in the afternoon, but I also stood and walked in three different stores. Before MS, that would have been nothing--I was a champion mall walker. Now it is a major achievement.
-Balance: 1
-Sleep: 4, I got eight hours but woke up about a half dozen times. Broken sleep is not the same.
-Bladder: 0
Emotions: I got choked up when an old friend (whom I have not seen in quite a while) brought up my MS. It is still hard for me to talk about.
