At our house, it was the celebration of Pie-a-palooza that did us in. (Is there such a thing as too much pie?!) So you’re sitting there thinking, “Gosh, I’m full. I must’ve gained 10 pounds over the holidays. Why did I eat so much?” The dark specter of guilt raises it’s ugly head… What can you do?! Weightless blogger Margarita Tartakovsky has six suggestions on how to make it stop: 1. Accept your feelings and move on. OK, acknowledge that you feel guilty and realize that this is just another feeling. But like other feelings, it will go away. 2. Tell yourself you’ll go back to eating healthfully. N...

The spiders keep up their swinging routine to make cobwebs. Dust and dirt keep drifting in, along with dog tracks, dog hair, human clutter and laundry. Why doesn’t life realize I am not always up to all this work? Let us not leave out my least favorite chore of all and that’s the trip to the supermarket. Yuk. I love to cook, but hauling in the groceries is tiring, painful and irritating. Sometimes, I confess, as my sweaty, irritated self passes one of our dogs, wagging their little tails and jumping to greet me, I talk to them. “Hey, you guys. Some of this stuff is for you. Don’t just sit there looking cute, grab a bag!” The greatest response I’ve received thus far from my canine frie...

The last thing we want is to succumb to another person’s bug but, alas, there isn’t much we can do. We are in the heart of cold and flu season in my neck of the woods, and everyone seems to be either coming down with, just getting over or in the midst of suffering some viral thing or another. It’s like walking into a germ fog anytime you go out in public. I used to have a failsafe for this time of year. I used a tincture of echinacea and goldenseal, which a friend would brew up every year from her organic gardens. A few drops of this stuff at the first sign of a cold and I was good to go. Now, of course, I’m not really into the idea of boosting...

We seem to focus on the anger, the sadness, the acceptance; what we haven’t focused upon is denial. If this concept offends any of us that are “further along” with MS than others, I wholeheartedly offer an apology in advance. I think, however, that even people who are harder hit by their multiple sclerosis can understand the concept on some level. Have you ever thought (or even said aloud), “Do I really have multiple sclerosis?” It’s easy to see why we might query in such a way. MS is a disease that can (and does in a plurality of cases) go into long periods of dormancy or remission. Have you ever found yourself stable for months or even years and wondered if the docs got it right? ...

I won’t say I was in the best shape of my life; the kind of work/travel schedule I was on didn’t lend itself to that very well. Still, all and all, the forced reduction in activity due to a MS diagnosis was marked. In those first months, it seemed I was being told by just about everyone the things not to do. My neurologist told me not to go to a support group meeting for fear I’d be shocked. My yoga and pilates instructors said the in-your-face realization of how much I could no longer do would be devastating. When I was first getting to know my MS, I was advised not to do some of the very things I now find most helpful. Yesterday, I was at a fund raising dinner which was great fun. For those foodies among us, it was a di... Life with MS blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1149870 Mon, 14 Jan 2008 19:52:53 +0100 1149870
