Hi, Couchies. Sending encouragement to all who need it. Seems my recent tiredness and feeling not so great wasn't just an MS flare--also got diagnosed the other day with a sinus infection. I used to get them all the time, now usually just once a year, late winter or early spring.
I took 3 doses of the med and woke last night because the soles of my feet were itching intensely. I called the clinic today, and the nurse called back and said the NP who prescribed said the itching isn't a usual side effect, and just to keep taking it. I, of course, (right, Hankster?) had googled it earlier and learned that it is a side effect, so I told the nurse I would take one more dose and if I started itching again I was going to call back. Sure enough, within 30 minutes, the itching started again. So now I have to go pick up the new script tomorrow. Too tired to go today.
I was hoping to have my son come for an overnight visit this weekend, but if I don't feel better tomorrow, I'm going to cancel. This weather is still indecisive, and it doesn't help me feel better! I did get outside with my dog last week Friday, and that was great. It was warm and quite breezy, and I walked just enough to get exercise and feel pleasantly tired. I want sunshine, rhubarb, and asparagus!
