Re: What is wrong with the left side of my body?

Well I can't say I'm much better since I posted this. I was symptom free for about two months, had a few really good weeks with lots of energy and focus. About a month ago I had another relapse in symptoms that lasted several weeks. As soon as it seemed as if the symptoms were going to pass, it flared up again.

The really weird thing is that I wake up in the morning feeling groggy (which is not normal for me) it takes me a while to get going and then as the day progresses, the stiffness sets in to my shoulders and neck, jaw and head. I get foggy brained and I'm sensitive to light. I get a sort of tension headache by dinner time and I'm so stiff and tense that I go to bed early. Only to wake up the next day and have it start all over again. I'm dealing with these symptoms right now.

I have to confess that when I feel like this, I just want to take something to make it all go away. I'm always tempted to drink wine or something to relax me, but it never works (well it sort of works as I do get to escape the discomfort for a while) but its just not worth it to do that to my body, so I suffer through it and pray that I'll be back to "normal" in a few days or so.

I'm tired of these cyclical symptoms. I have a few good weeks then a few bad weeks. I can't take it anymore!
