So thankful

I have been to see her Consultant today. After at least two years' waiting with no disease-modifying drugs available (previous treatments didn't work or caused bad reactions), subject to a couple of checks, I should be approved for 'Fingolimod', a new medication recently approved by the EU and now N.I.C.E. It is one pill taken every day, so no nasty admin methods. It 'works' by causing the white blood cells which would otherwise attack myelin surrounding nerves to be gathered to the lymph nodes instead. It apparently has a success rate between 60-70% which is unprecedented in the MS treatment field. So,I am truly thankful, and hopeful.

Here is a link to more imformation about it if you are interested.

Would really prayer

I am currently going through and relaspe and it has hit me mentally as well as physically. My mind is foggy and I am feeling a little sorry for myself, which is quite unusual for me. My right hand side is very weak and I should be going a 3 day course of steroids next week after I have seen my neurologist on Friday.
I have an occupational health visit today to see if I can get any adaptions for my home.
I would really value prayer on both of these visits.
I am very thankful I am the Lords, I do not know how people cope on their own.
