Some people are idiots…
Like the ones who call pot a ‘gateway drug’
Sorry, but pot doesn’t lead to the use of harder drugs, if anything, it lessens inhibitions asscoiated with the fear of ‘trying’ other drugs.
Chronic potheads are just too damn lazy [read :stoned:] to care about other drugs, like; meth, coke, heroin etc. I grew [...]

Dizzy

Posted on August 16, 2007. Filed under: Another Day In The Life..., attack, blogaholics, dizzy, optic neuritis, vertigo |

I am dizzy all the time. My Doc wants to blame it on my middle ear. My Eye Doc wants to blame it on nerve damage to the optic nerve behind my eyes. My Honey blames it on blondeness. Honestly, I don’t know what causes it, it could be something simple like medication, but I [...]

This is my response to a comment made to my MS article.

Hi
Thanks for commenting my blog.
I sympathize with your plight.
Having MS sucks.
I seem to have a few bad months and then will feel somewhat better for

Medicinal marijuana

Posted on June 30, 2007. Filed under: Another Day In The Life..., Lyme Disease, Medicinal Marijuana, Multiple sclerosis, Surviving Cancer, blogaholics, optic neuritis, pain |

It’s a YES or NO question. Legalize marijuana or don’t. Medicinal marijuana should be available to patients who will truly benefit from using it daily. Cancer patients going through chemo say that it helps settle their nausea. Other patients have used it to stimulate their appetite to prevent weightloss during treatment. Others still have used [...]

Looking for answers that aren’t always forthcoming or obvious.

Posted on May 29, 2007. Filed under: Ambiguity, Another Day In The Life..., Multiple sclerosis, optic neuritis, vertigo |

So? Is there anyone out there reading my blog who has been diagnosed with MS?
I’m curious as to how long it took you to get a diagnosis.
Many people wait for years [YEARS!!] to get a definitive diagnosis, I think this is because even though damage is being done to our central nervous systems on a [...]

optic neuritis and vertigo w/ nystagmus

Posted on May 29, 2007. Filed under: Another Day In The Life..., optic neuritis, vertigo |

These are some symptoms I could well do without.
The optic neuritis is painful, if I look too far to the left or right when my eyes go back to straight ahead my balance is thrown off and I become dizzy for a moment. I also get shooting, stabbing pains in my eyes. It is momentary [...]

Another Day In The Life Of…..

Posted on May 17, 2007. Filed under: Another Day In The Life..., Multiple sclerosis, optic neuritis, vertigo |

It’s Thursday. May 17, 2007   10:01AM EST
My hands are playing a game of their own today and because of spasms [tremors/jerks] of both hands I have the tendency to hit wrong keys or add letters/numbers where they do not belong.  Sorry…[she said sheepishly silently cursing the need to explain]
So it takes me a while to [...]
