My Life With MS

Well now I am not sure what is going on with this MS,the doctor has taken me off my shots,I was getting sick,and having some bad side effects.
The doctor said they want another Lumbar puncture,and they are going to get me into MS clinic at OHSU,which is the college hospital.
I am worried,and will have to wait until they find out how this MS has progressed.I am still doing good,except for the side effects I was having with the shots,I still am having one,I break out in sweats a lot and mostly at night.I have been so very busy trying to plan a concert for my 65th birthday,I think it is going to be so much fun.It will be on the 27th of June,where I live.
I will have a country singer to preform for me,His name is Phil Bradley,and he lives in Gresham,OR.
If you would like to hear him sing you could go to myspace.com/oregonpeggysmith Please go and hear him sing,he is on my friends list,and go to his profile and listen he is so very good.
I will keep you updated as soon as I find out anything about my MS.

I was living in Bozeman,Montana I moved there in 2001,and during my time there I noticed something was not right with me medically.I had become very off balance and started to fall and get hurt, and when I would be walking in my house I also noticed that I was walking like I had been drinking,and I had not drank in years.Well that started my trips to the Veterans Hospital to see if the doctors could find out what was going on with me medically.
The test went on for over 2 years,the first test was for my eyes,and the doctor said there was a problem,and also said that I need to have a MRI.I did not know just what that was,and I found out 2 weeks later.I also found out that I was very claustrophobic,and went into a panic attack,and could not have the MRI taken that day,and had to reschedule the appointment for the next week.
I had to go to my primary doctor and told him what happened and he gave me some medicines to take so that I could get the test done.
Well after about 2 months I got a letter stating to be at the hospital in 2 weeks for more test.At that time the run a CT scan and of course blood tests.After a month they called me and set up an appointment with my doctor.When I went to see her she told me that I had to go back to the hospital and have more test.She said she would make the appointments and the hospital would send them to me.
It took 2 month and I got the letter it said I had to have a lumbar puncture.I did not know what that was,but I sure learned real quick that I did not like the test.While there they said they could not get very much fluid,so they called the doctor and he told them he need 10 cc Well after one and a half hours later all the got was 2cc.They did 7 lumbar punctures.They then wheeled me to the day stay center,and I had to stay there for 7 hours.I was so very tired,and when I started to doze off they would tell me to breathe.I was so glad to leave there that day,I sleep all the way home to Bozeman,which was about 92 miles.When I got home my husband had to help me into the house,and he put me on the couch and I stayed there for 3 days.
2 weeks later I had to go back and see the Neurology doctor,we talked and he told me there were 3 things that found it could be.He said when he got the results of the test he would call me and have me come back and we would talk about the test.I felt it was taking forever but it was only a week,the doctor called and said to come back in the next week.
