I just took my Klonopin and am waiting for it to kick in. The doctors at NW/Rush told me that I was finally accepted into the stem-cell study for MS. Hurray! Blue Cross/Blue Shield denied me several times, so I had to go on Medicare to get approval. That isn't so bad, but there's a period where I have to go on Medicaid, which is humiliating. I've said it before, but I don't even like using coupons because they make me feel poor. And wretched, in 19th century French parlance. Anywho...
Quick rundown:
I have multiple sclerosis (relapsing-remitting, with an emphasis on the relapsing), was diagnosed in January 2008 but began exhibiting symptoms in July 2007, which include the following litany: balance and gait problems, optic neuritis with nystagmus, numb fingers, vertigo, fatigue that dissipates at night (my nocturnality is pathological, and not simply an extension of depression), and sporadic nausea. I'm sure there's more, but that's enough for now.
I think it's nap time.
