Mandatory Rest Period

Well, well, well... It finally happened! I'm having an attack. Darn! I almost made it two years since being on Fingolimod! So, a few weeks back my legs just didn't feel right. And not in that numb way I usually get. After a week, I couldn't rely on my legs holding me up. They would give out and my muscles were so tight it was painful with all movement. Of course the fatigue kicked in quite nicely so all around not so easy to deal with as my last attack of crazy numbness everywhere. So, I was taken off work to help me rest and heal. I was offered a round of the good ole' steriods, but I declined. Once I stopped working and and started sleeping I could see that I'm on the upswing. I'm back at work next week which will be a bit strange. I forgot how weird it is to just be here in my place out of society. Loads of time to knit at least ;) Speaking of knitting... have you all seen this? It makes me smile every time I see it.
