I'll match your feeling crappy and raise you one. In the middle of a relapse, awaiting a new MRI (last one only 4 months ago) looking for new lesions since weakness is now bilateral. Add in a little extra fatigue, a college graduate and another trip to Shriners in Chicago and you have a wonderful perfect storm.

PT has begun Occupational Therapy at the request of my neuro and the balance exercises continue.

I like your idea of going to the pool. There isn't one in easy driving distance for me and my driving is not good during a relapse. I would love to do a water exercise class!
I wish you well with the pool and getting yourself out in the world.

Take care,
Ren

hi ladies it is an indoor pool and it is quite cold so  i can move and swim quite well in it i surprise myself and swim for a whole hour at a time.i do enjoy the outdoor pool as well i dont htink it opens until june though. the only thing i find i dont like about the pool is the showers that are way to hot the last time i went which was qbout six weeks ago i had to sit on the bench to cool off for half an hour as the heat makes me feel faint i keep asking the staff about the temp of the showers i think i will have to write a letter to the manager as i did enjoy goingt i was also doing the aqua aerobics three times a week.

Sorry you are feeling awful!

I am glad that you are planning to get out of the house. Even a change of scenery (sp?) can make such a difference for me so I hope that it helps.

Hope you are feeling better soon.

Hugs,
Erin :)

   Sorry you are still having issues w/ bowels. Coming from another bowel sufferer
I can totally relate.

    You said that you are starting back going to the pool.....is it an indoor pool?  Heated?
Outdoor poll? In the sun?    The reason I am asking is because if you are already having your sx still in an uproar....Any type of heat being indoor heated or outside in the sun.....the heat may not be such a good idea.

     Hugs to you, and hope you can find some relief soon my friend.
Keep us updated...
