Do you think this might be progressing?

I am really fatigued again, like I was in the beginning, and at the same time my breathing is bad too.  As i remember before my diagnosis, I was also not breathing well either, but now I am on inhalers, which doesn't seem to be helping.  
I am up for a few min and have to park myself again.

I feel that the MS is getting worse so I emailed my doc to schedule an MRI, it is due soon anyway.  I am sort of at a loss again and have not felt like typing on here on here.  I have not disappeared ....just not up to it.

It gives me thrush too, making me nuts.  But my Dr said the other meds have there own issues...I need to see my pulmonary Dr. I think.

I have tried only using one or the other, not both, but that doent work either.  Still working on it..

thanks, meg

The advair gave me thrush. I thought Singulair was for allergies but my PCP said it is good for asthma. It may not help because we all are different but it sure has helped me. I use less inhalers now.

Hi Alex,

i am on spiriva and advair, i have asked for something else because these two inhalers or at least one of them cause thrush in my mouth.

I have not tried anything else but I may go back to my pulmonary Dr...ugh, i hate Drs now so i always put it off.

thanks, meg

Are you on support asthma medicine inhalers as well as rescue?  I am on symbacort and singulair which makes a big difference. I know when I forget my singulair pill.

I know I am slowly progressing but I have worse times than others.

Hey, thanks for that , but I have not had an episode for so long and if it is, it may mean something is achangin'..

I have always had fatigue too and i hate it too, but it was milder for a long time.  This sort of snuck up on me and it ***** big time.

Since my cognative is so bad, I can't find the right words, so i improvise.  I use 'thingy' and 'stuff'
a lot..lol

Thanks for the humor, its how i survive !

Are you progressing - who really knows the answer to that one, you probably have a better idea of your baseline than your doctors. I think i'd find it easier to answer if the question was 'do you think i'm in a episode?' then the answer i'd give you, would probably be yes.

Fatigue that never ends is a b!tch with a capital 'B', hate it! hate it! hate it! I've just made lunch and now i'm too fatigued to even eat it lol since when has pulling a cooked chicken apart and putting it in a roll become exhausting? Grrrrrr i've run out of spoons already!

Hang in there kiddo!
