Good morning All

[Eliza3]

We are getting ready to go for Elizabeth's follow up. We are hoping that the doctor will start her on one of the MS drugs.  

Well Quix the massive spasms or what ever it was started to happen at church. (this was before the Depakote) Elizabeth grabbed my knee and squeezed and gave me a look like don't you dare let this happen right here in church. Like I could stop it. And of course after church we had a good laugh while eating breakfast.  What is really neat Elizabeth knows when it is about to happen so far she gets complete body humming then inside out nerve shocks that are so bad that she starts to scratch, then she starts to rock and roll. The Depakote has helped.
Need to go.

I'll check back after the dr visit today. If Elizabeth is up to it we are going out for lunch then shopping.
The heat is really bad right now 100+ is hard on her.

Talk to all later

We'll Elizabeth's visit was interesting. The doctor took her off the Depakote bad side effects. Legs and feet swelled double their size and she has had liquid this is gross diarriha and yellow since she started the medication. We all decided to take her off ALL meds except the insulin and protonix and start over next month. She has problems taking medications.
The doctor did tell me to keep a diary of what I saw and heard her say of how she felt and what was happening. I thought that was pretty interesting. Elizabeth has said NO to another LP. She has already had 2 in 2 months time last year. The first 2 dr's could not get the needle in and she was in back pain for weeks. The second they completely sedated and it was negative for MS.
everything points to MS even the MRI's.
The doctor read her time line again and said each time you have a flare it gets worse. DUH! This time the shocks and vibrations and balance and back pain and weakness leg weakness and eyes has stayed for a year now.

Elizabeth got an up close picture of a buck. He was by our fence and she went out spoke to him and walk right up and took his picture he poised for 5. I have started calling her My "dear" whisperer.

Cute humor Zilla!!!

Good Morning to All and to All have a great day.

When SL says, Let us know how you 'make out,' she means let us know what happens...  We don't need any lessons or personal details!

Weak attempt at humor!

I hope Eliza continues to get some improvement on the Depakote.  And some solid answers.

Feel well,

Hi Bob, Hi Eliza!

Wishing Eliza a pleasant Dr. visit today.  

I wish she didn't get the spasms so badly, but sure do hope w/the help of this med, they start to subside for her.

Please tell Eliza she is in my thoughts and prayers, and that we are all pulling hard for her.

Let us know how you make out.

be well,
Shelly
