Thanks - she has an appt. tomorrow with the doctor. Her blood tests came back okay. She doesn't know what he was looking for.
She doesn't sound worried. She has become a real champ! She says she's not sorry she got MS. She feels that she really grew up and learned what's important from it. I am amazed at how she has grown! Her husband isn't home this week. He's working down here until Friday. I offered him an invitation to stay here, but he wouldn't be comfortable - he4 likes to lay down in his undershorts and watch TV after work. I don't blame him! I'll see what the doctor tells Jess tomorrow. If it's anything serious, I'll drive up and stay with her.

Jess went to the doctor today. He found nothing wrong with her blood or her neck on the MRI.
She has an appointment next week with a new neurologist upstate and with a cardiologist I think. The doctor today said it may be MS related - he can't find anything else. She's not sounding too worried about it, except that her wrist hurts. I'm hoping the pain subsides by the time she gets to the neurologist. I doubt if they'll figure it out - especially if it's related to the MS. Symptoms come and go with MS - some big and some small. As long as no other new symptoms pop up, it's part of what she has. Neurological disorders are very strange. They're not even sure she has MS - at least 2 doctors told her that and she has decided to believe them. There are a few other things that are similar and are treated the same. I figure if it makes her happy to not think she has it, fine. I pray a lot for her and that's all I can do.

Judy I am happy to hear that they did not find anything wrong with Jessie. That alone is good news.. I don't know to much about MS but I do hope they find a cure for these diseases.. My prayers are with you and your daughter always.

I'm glad they didn't find anything wrong...that's a good thing. As long as she's taking the best care of herself and keeping with her Drs., I'd just enjoy her. I don't know anything about MS either except that Montel Williams and Annette Funicello have it. They are doing so much research now and finding ways to help some. If this is indeed what your daughter has, I hope they can keep it in check.

I didn't know Annette F. has it. So does Teri Garr.
You're right. They are making strides in medicine. I take one day at a time with this.

Jessie has shingles. She woke up with a rash right where the pain is, and went to the doctor.
I hope it's not a long bout of shingles! She has to do without pain meds for it because she's on strong MS medication. The doctor told her that it's contagious and only people who haven't had chicken pox won't catch it. That's new to me. Anyway, of course her husband is down here working. He'll be home tomorrow though. I told her I would come up if it's an emergency. (I surely don't want to though - I want to stay home and continue getting my house in order). Her house is so hectic! I'll do what I have to but......; I feel sorry for her. Shingles is hard to kick isn't it?
