Ding Ding! Round 2

I've been rather neglectful of my blog of late, but unfortunately my MS has been unrelenting. Tweeting is about my limit at the moment. I was at the hospital for an appointment with my MS specialist yesterday and he feels I'd benefit from a second course of steroids for this relapse - IV this time. The course starts next Tuesday and finishes on the Thursday. Although I'm lucky enough to be attending as an outpatient, it means the last dose will be on hogmanay. There go my new year celebrations! hehe. Hopefully this time the steroids help to control my relapse.

I've migrated all of my blog postings to Wordpress.com and will be running both blogs for the next month or so to allow everyone to get used to the change (including me!) and then I'll be closing this blog. Hopefully everyone that reads this blog will continue to read after the move : ) I've changed the name of my blog too: although I'll still be blogging about my experience with LDN and MS, I don't feel I devote enough time to writing about LDN for the title to be solely about LDN. To read the new blog (still in early stages of design), please visit: http://lifewithms.wordpress.com/

A quick update on my LDN usage: I'm up to 2mg per day, but will have to stop it to take the steroids, then back on again. I still think my relapse is in too full a swing currently for any benefits of LDN to be felt, but hopefully as the symptoms improve and the dose increases, I'll be seeing the benefits : ) I experienced no problems increasing the dose from 1mg per day to 2mg, although some people do find there is an adjustment period.

I have a great series of posts in the pipeline and they'll be appearing very soon. More info to follow! Keep your eyes peeled!

Merry Christmas!
