Relapse

Have I mentioned lately that my boss is a really good guy? I went into him this morning and told him that I was having some health issues. My MS is acting up again. It’s the change in the seasons, I swear.  His first question was “Do you need to work from home for a while?” I told him that I have a lot of work to do, and that the work will get done.

When I get like this, my sleep patterns get all messed up because I get tired and want to nap during the day. We agreed that I’m going to cut my hours physically in the office a little short for a while. I’ll still work, but I’ll probably come in a little later and leave a little earlier.

As far as the mechanics of what’s going on, it’s numbness, loss of balance, and being tired all the time. These are classic signs of a relapse, at least in my own case. Hopefully this won’t last too long. I have a life to live. The good news is that having Reggie forces me to stay active. We probably walk a good mile every day. That forces me to get at least a little bit of exercise.
