Aaack! It's getting to me.

I won't know results of the blood test till tomorrow, at the latest. Not sure why today is getting to me, except I'm in pain and I justerroneously paid an exorbitant amount on a bill. My brain justblinked and I hit send (ebill) adn now I'll bounce a check. I can'tremember the words to grace and my legs are killing me.I don't want to be this way. I want to be my cheerful, organizedself. And what if it isn't something easy? What if it isn't MS? AmI just losing my mind? AAAACK. Sorry to whine, been keeping thisunder wraps. DH is already worried about me, the bill, andhis ownconcerns, I hate to burden him.I tried laying down to rest, but I can't.SorryMona

-Hi Mona,

Ya, I tried to lay down to rest too, and couldn't...

I've done that, exactly that, during the summer, about four months in

a row I paid my gas bill twice every month... Then couldn't figure

out why I didn't have as much money to make it through... Didn't even

KNOW I was doing it until the month I called the gas company up and

asked them a question about the bill, which was good, because that

month I almost paid it 3 times!...

I'll give you a tip, the second you pay a bill, the very second Write

it on the calender..(this, from someone who knows). Don't stop to

get coffee, or look around, don't talk to anyone until you write it

down... Have you tried calling your bank yet and seeing if they will

let any bouncing charges slide? I've had a lot of luck with nice

bank people not charging me any bounce fee...

This seems the perfect place to go " Aaaaack " to me.. Everyone here

has Aaaaked also, and I'm sure many of us will Aaaaaack again in the

future... I hope your day is going much better now,

Wolfie

SORRY to hear about you paying the bills multiple times.

I always use the check register in my check book for anything, check, debit, on-line payment, etc. If you are paying bills on-line, you should print out your bank record each week or month before you start paying bills.

We actually only use the on-line stuff to check our numbers with the banks.

It's been a month and they still think we have more money than our personal records show.

Oh I am SO there girlfriend!!!

My hub and I were talking, I told him sometimes I feel like this is just not true, that I was misdiagnosed...hw said Honey, a brain lesion is a brain lesion...a rose by ay other name....I guess sometimes He seems to take it easier then I do!!! And HE is the one who has to so all the things I cannot...thereby tripling his load...and he does not complain...

Meanwhoo....tomorrow I have another MRI. THis time it is in an open machine...anyone else ever have an open MRI? I have no idea what to expect...but I know it is supposed to be much easier then the normal closed ones...

Hi Rich,

Glad to see you posting. I do not know the proper etiquette but I am so glad that the members of this group are out there.

Hello,

I am a student in the medical imaging field. First with X-Ray, and now because of my most recent episode I am in Ultrasound. Cardio-Vascular Ultrasound to be precise. The open MRI machine are easier to deal with typically for patients who are claustrophobic. Hope this helps Akiba

Now let me introduce myself. My name is Rich. I am 34 from Long Island, NY

First Dx in 1996 with RRMS. I'd have exacerbations every 12-24 months for 6 years or so that claered up within 3-6 weeks with no residual effects, Until May of 2002. I was admitted to the hospital because I couldnt stand on my own 2 feet or even move too good. I wound up being temporarily paralyzed from the naval down. I say temporarily because I am now walking (with the aid of a cane) and back to school and work Part-time. I am still not 100% but I am still hoping as I have been getting better (however very slowly) as time progresses.

Hope all goes well with your MRI and thanks for listening or reading whichever is proper etiquette for e-mails.

There is nothing wrong with being human and feeling upset over these things. There are tremendous changes happening, and a lot of adjusting to do as you realize the plans and ideals you've had for your life may not come as neatly. Each step of the way there may be adjustments to make, as your life changes. You are as free to gripe, to cry and mourn your losses as you are to smile, laugh and rejoice at your successes.

I believe you can retract a payment, can't you? Contact them. Contact the place you sent the payment to, explain to them. This can and does work at times.

Don't expect "easy". And allow yourself to feel what comes.

Hugs,

Challis

Reminds me of the tale Sharon/Mom tells so often. Of one of her moments thinking it's all a mistake, it's a misdx, I don't really have MS, it's all in my head. Then realizing it really is all ... she has plaques in her brain. lol

So, the MRI was yesterday? How did it go??

Hi Rich. Now I know your name. Maybe I'll go back and change my email. LOL

I'm impressed with your age. Rather, that you can remember it. If it weren't for my family, or a calculator, I'd never know my own. lol
