Following Lemtrada in September things were slowly but surely developing into better things. I haven't experienced an overnight miracle, but I was convinced there were tiny little things improving.
My walking wasn't perfectly normal but I was feeling the benefits of weekly physiotherapy and having greater awareness of how my posture should be and how to strengthen the core tummy muscles so that I'm not so wobbly. Regular exercise was benefiting me physically and emotionally, admittedly I wasn't doing so much, but I'd become so weak (too much sitting around) that even little muscle exercises were tiring. Because I have a full range of mobility it's easy to overestimate in your mind what you are able to still do. Avoidance never helped anybody and I just need to get my priorities straight and throw myself into working at my fitness.
Its amazing how much difference a good mood can make to my MS sometimes. I've always promoted the strength of positive mental attitude (especially since my diagnosis)!
What a great overview on how you are feeling. I am so glad that you are beginning to feel better both physically and mentally. Those little exercises, though hard at first, can really make a huge difference in your life, especially helping the core stomach muscles. I continue to wish you the best of luck with everything—feel better!
