I’ve been really busy with work and I forgot to write about med changes! They happened in September. Better living through pharmacology. This year, I saw not only my awesome neurologist but also a physiatrist. He’s also cool, a bit sardonic but that’s my jam so the appointment was great. He’s the doc who specializes …
Twice a year, I go to the city for an Ocrevus infusion to manage MS. It keeps my immune system from snacking on my brain and spinal cord. The first time was terrifying because I had no idea what to expect. What did they think might happen, given all the talk about infusion reaction, pre-medication …
Thankfully, the neurologist had nothing but good news to share. My appointment was in late September, so I’m pretty behind! My slow season for business usually starts in September, but it’s the end of November and I’m still going. It’s awesome but there’s definitely some things piling up as a result. I just can’t do …

I’ll get the results at the end of this week. The question is, is my immune system still attacking and destroying my brain and spinal …
The last few weeks have been fantastic. I’m hopeful that I’m finally recovering from this MS relapse. I’ve done two fasting mimicking cycles in three weeks (see my post about it here) and I feel really good. I had leg heaviness for six months that made stairs really hard. It resolved a few weeks ago, …
While I wait for the provincial healthcare system to get its act together, I’m trying a new fasting protocol to try and improve my symptoms. I’m still waiting to have my MRI re-booked. I had an MRI booked for June. It was requested urgently in November of last year and finally granted for June. Cuz, …
