Falling

I completely face-planted on my cement steps going out to my garage.  My left leg decided it would not go up the steps, and I bit it hard.  I am surprisingly sore everywhere and have a big lump on my left shin.

So far, Gilenya is working – I have not had any relapses since starting it, but the damage that was done from my prior flairs hasn’t gotten much better.

Ouch… the pain

Neuropathic pain is absolutely miserable!  I can’t believe I got hit with it so hard today at nearly every point of my body.  It still hasn’t completely calmed down yet.  Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

It’s like you roll yourself into a little ball to just try and find some comfortable position, which does not exist.  I have to call my neuro tomorrow because this is day 3 of on/off neuropathic pain with today being by far the worst.  Wonder if Gabapentin is something I may need to take – but the side effects of it suck 🙁 It’s like a no-win situation.
