Treat the Symptoms

I sometimes like to think, I am a superhero and do not need any help. I like to think I can just deal with it or handle things on my own. Let me tell you, at times with MS, that is just not that possible. I have been learning and accepting that there are medications and things out there to make the symptoms of MS more manageable. Even if in the back of my head, I feel weak or somewhat giving up, I know how important it is to accept and do something about. I bit the bullet and talked to my doctor last week about taking something for a few issues I have been having for a while just tried to avoid being a "pill popper." I know I am not, and need to get that mentality to out to stay strong. Who cares what you have to take and how many medications you take as long as you stay strong and healthy. So, I feel like I hit another milestone of victory in this disease by managing and treating my symptoms. Hope to keep the fight alive and the acceptance of change possible.
