I know exactly what you mean about the new sensations making you think you are
having a flare-up or a new lesion. I go through that daily. I have found
that I am more accepting and less anxious about it if I am well-rested. On
days that I am not tired I can really say to myself, "whatever happens happens
and you can't change it or prevent it." It is not easy to do that if I'm
tired, though.

I was having trouble with cognitive function but my neuro said it was the
fatigue. It still hits sometimes but the Cylert she gave me seems to help me
so much. My days spent in bed are fewer and farther between.

I had dental work done today and being almost upside down in a chair with my
neck bent (right where my lesion is) was very odd for me. It left my body
kind of "jello-like."

Remember, you are not alone!! I hope you feel better. Maybe ask about drugs
for the fatigue? I was first told there was nothing but was then given 2
options!

I'm off to bed so I can function at work tomorrow!
