When I found out Whitney Houston died I cried uncontrollably & each time I think of her I cry (she was so beautiful & had such a beautiful natural voice). Even while typing this. Is that a sign of something wrong? I've also felt like my neck and hands are trembly, but looking at them you can't tell, I just feel it. And when I type my hands "drop" about once a minute - I'm a legal secretary & I only work 3 days a week now. I finally called the Dr. today and am waiting to hear back.

@momicajack I feel the same way about Whitney Houston...how awful :( From what you said, it could be PBA (Pseuobulbar Affect) but I'm not a doctor so I'm not 100% sure. I have gone through exactly what you are explaining though. I wish you well, I'm hoping for the best!!

I'm sorry too Lauren for posting so late! Hope the new drug is working out for you. And I hope your stress level has dropped off somewhat.

OMG you;re on Tysabri Klonopin and Provigil? Me too!

You're so sweet.

@CANSANDY2 Oh my gosh, don't worry! Yes, fortunately my stress level has dropped some. Oh my gosh Sandy, we're on the exact same medications!! How are you feeling??

So there's a reason that I get choked up at spirit assemblies at school? I'm sure other teachers are beginning to wonder what's up with me because I get choked up whenever I announce the student of the month from my class. :)

@MsHopeforhealing Yes, there is a reason! I get choked up at Hallmark commercials all the time! I think it's so sweet that you get choked up about the student of the month!! That's endearing!!

@momicajack : oh, and I do have MS, so its not that I'm worried I might have it. I just don't know if I should be concerned. Just like you, I can tell I tremble when I try to put on my mascara. Also, holding a glass or coffee mug to drink, I have to use two hands because of it. I know you're not a doctor, I guess I just needed to tell someone who might understand. =)

[CANSANDY2]

@laurenvparrott Well I'm feeling fine (Tysabri 30 mths, Klonopin[Clonazepam in Canada] 4 years, Provigil[Alertec in Canada] 10 years). I didn't know anyone else on the same "cocktail" LOL.

My doc wanted me to try getting off the Alertec but I was a zombie so I went back on at a lower dose!

Take care

@laurenvparrott They got one made in December. Guess I'll see if my doctor can figure out what is wrong.

@whyworryabout2moro Thank you so much! Yes, it's not always easy, but I try to make the best of everything! I hope you're doing well!

[laurenvparrott]

@TheKyleecow No, that's not too bad! Were you able to get an appointment? I've been doing very well! Aww, I'm sure everything will work out! I hope you have a great winter!
