Thanks for the support. Move went well and things are getting better. About time too. Toe nail is growing back slooowlyyy. Is very annoying to have to soak my toe daily, but it is what I gotta do. Is 1/2 way grown now. Karina

Hi Karina,

So great to hear from you and that your house situation is ok and that the meds seem to be working!  We'll be hanging out to hear more good news from you.  Particularly that the toenail is growing back! :)

Take care!

Glad you got to get away for awhile, is nice to escape sometime. Storage isn't to bad, cost wise. Am filing fo bankruptcy too next month.

Copaxone is doing well. Been on it a month now. I have had some reaction at injection site, but Shared Solutions nueses, said it was normal. Is mild now. I think I was icing the spot to long. Now I only ice it a few minutes before injection and that seems to work out well. You can call me sometime, if you want. My # is the same, as I gave you.

I moved on Sunday. Went pretty well. Got my small room organized as well as space lets me. Hope it works out there for me. I hate to move..    Karina

We were away for the weekend, which we NEVER do.  I wish I'd been home to talk!  Thanks for phoning!!!

I hope storage isn't that expensive.  Will it still save you money in the end?  How's the Medicine working?

How long until you move?

Hi Chris .  I tried calling you this past sat, but you weren't home. I'm glad about moving, but dred packing. Got 2 rolls of duct tape today. My older sister, her husband, an aunt and an uncle are going to help me move.  I'm putting most in storage, so will cost some, but I feel I need to move there. Zoanne ( the ladies name) is real nice. I'm sure things will work out. Now if I could have a magic wand, so I DON'T have to pack, I'd be happier, Oh well.   Karina

Really glad things are starting to improve a bit.  Glad the treatment is working..you are very brave.

Look after yourself and that toe...sounds nasty.  I think if a doctor had taken my toe nail off I would have hit him...!

Take care

I'm glad the copaxone is working for you.  We all need a break once in a while.  Yours certainly did'nt last long with your toe and all.  I hope it gets better soon.  

You sound like you have a good attitude and that's exactly what it takes.  If we stay on top of the world then there is no way it can bring us down.  That's what I try to do everyday.  Sometimes it's not easy when everything goes wrong at once but you gotta bounce back up.  I know you can do it, I can feel your strength.

I'll be praying,
Carol

Hi, there!  I just knew you'd come back to us.  Yea!!! for the library.  Wow, you think the Copaxone's helping?  That's wonderful, you were due for some relief!  I like the idea of renting a room.  Easier to keep clean and less to pick up.  I took a big step toward minimalism a couple years ago.  

We'll see you Tuesday!  Quix

Hey!  So good to hear from you!  

Where are you storing your stuff?  Somewhere cheap or your sister's I hope.  Don't want to waste your money renting more space, right?  I'm glad you found a room!  How do you like the lady?  

I'm SO happy the medicine is working so well!  That's wonderful.  Things are getting better and better.

That same toe thing happened to my son when he was about 9.  Ew!  Youch!  It did grow back and it looked great.  I was amazed at the way it grew back so quickly.  

Thanks so much for checking in!  Take care!  See you Tuesday!

Love,

I'm at the library again. I am moving next month. Need to get busy packing. I am renting a room from a christian lady. Is 1/2 what I pay now for rent. Will have to storre my stuff, as the room is furnished. Less to cart up and down stairs. It's 2-3 blocks from neuro.

I went last week to dr. had an infected big right toe. He numbed it and took the nail off. Said it would take 2-3 months to grow back. So I have to soak it 2x a day til then. What fun. Been doing some overtime at work lately. Need the money and my boss needs the help.

I have started to get some feeling back in my legs and feet, since been on copaxone. Hopefully soon, I wont have to look at the ground, so I can tell I'm walking.  That's it for now. Will check in next tues. Karina
