Some days are good and some are bad. I limp quite a bit because of my left leg weakness, and my eyes are still bad making it difficult to read and see sometimes, especially when I am fatigued. My left arm is still weak and not 100% with coordination, but I think it is a bit better. It all sucks though because I just never know what kind of day I will have until I roll out of bed in the morning.

Back on Gilenya… again
I’m so incredibly tired and sleepy tonight. I started back on my Gilenya today and am wondering if it’s making me more sleepy.
I have been off of it for the past 10 days. I had developed a bad cough, and they weren’t sure if it was a side-effect of the Gilenya or a remnant cough from my illness. The cough finally went away over this past week, and now I am back on the med.
Hopefully, the cough stays away, else I will have to go off Gilenya permanently.
Back at Christmas time I was off of it for 4 days because I was sick and then went back on until this latest break.
Coughing and coughing
I finished my antibiotic course yesterday and have raised the humidity in my house to 55%. I am doing everything I can to cure my chest cold. I am drinking hot organic tea with apple cider vinegar (ACV). I’ve heard about the amazing healing properties and have been witness to a lot of them, but this time around this is lingering for way too long. I am using an inhaler to try to breathe better, but earlier yesterday I was struggling so much with my breathing, which turned out to be a full-blown panic attack. I think I was just freaking out that my symptoms were more apparent yesterday.
I just need sleep. It’s just so hard to sleep when your coughing with every breath you take. On the couch I go again.
Let’s just hope tomorrow morning will be a healing day.
