KittyLady, I'm so sorry about your relapse. It sounds miserable, and I hope you get to feeling better soon.
I agree that this seems to be the time of year for relapses; I've been having a bad couple of weeks myself. I wonder if it has to do with getting past the stress of the holidays? Our bodies relax a bit after all the extras we've been doing, and we may be more vulnerable to flares...
As for your daughter, she sounds very caring and devoted to you. Perhaps once she's living closer, she'll be able to see you more on a day-to-day basis and will have a better understanding of your relapses and remissions. It's being so far away from you that makes her so uneasy because she can't see how your disease routinely acts.
Once she's with you and sees how your MS flares and remits, she will know more what to expect. It's the not knowing, and the distance, that makes things worse for her, I'm sure...
Feel better, KL!
Another relapse
. Im having all my normal signals. Severe dizziness, more unstability in my walking, low back pain (pretty severe), HUG, heavy legs, UGH!!! My dd was crying last night telling me she thinks Im getting worse and not better. She's terrified I'll never get better and just continue to progress. How do I comfort her, when Im terrified of the same thing?
