I make an effort everyday to have a positive attitude.

But sometimes…sometimes this disease gets the better of me. It baffles me, angers me, humbles me, confuses me, scares me and saddens me. 

Another UTI to treat this week. Does MS cause it or does the infection make the flare/relapse appear? Did I make a mistake discontinuing a DMT? Will these symptoms improve when the infection clears or will this be my new normal? I have no answers for any of these questions and apparently neither do the host of doctors I see regularly. We treat and treat again only to be frustrated and disappointed over an over.

Recently I tried taking CBD/THC oil for nerve pain and nothing changed. My neurologist suggested prescription Lidocaine patches, used those for 15 days and nothing changed. What do we do when we run out of options?

We all need a pity pot day, and this is mine.
