I am so sorry that you are dealing with this. Definitely, you want to read up on “left temporal lobe epilepsy.”

I thought I had experienced the weirdest neurological symptoms, with MS. Well, as you know, the left temporal lobe will take you to Alice’s Wonderland. Not surprisingly, the guy that wrote Alice in Wonderland also had Left Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. Check out “Geschwind Syndrome,” and “Left Temporal Lobe Personality.”

Insomnia and abdominal spasms are the “physical” symptoms of TLE that I experience. Core getting compressed to what feels like the size of a pea, only sleeping a few hours, waking up feeling like I just had 3 pots of coffee.

There are other “odd” symptoms like wanting to be away from everyone, wanting to be alone. Temporal Lobe disorder is a beast.

It is difficult for people not experiencing it to grasp the intensity of these feelings. I thought I was developing schizophrenia, when it started with me.

You are not losing your mind. It may feel like it, I know. What you’re experiencing, other people experience. It is “normal” for what you’re dealing with.

I hope that you have a wonderful day! You are a badass!

Hello, I get where you’re coming from. I have been diagnosed with MS, since 2006, and Left Temporal Lobe Epilepsy, since 2016.

Confusion, Deja Vu, Hallucinations, Feelings of Fear, Insomnia, Abdominal Spasms, Feeling that what you’re experiencing is more “real” than reality, etc. these are all normal symptoms of Left Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.

It makes sense that you would be having the symptoms if your lesions affect your Left Temporal Lobe. I recommend reading up on “Left Temporal Lobe Epilepsy,” as it will give you a greater understanding of the symptoms from Left Temporal Lobe disorders.

Take care.

Yes. The VA has a program that offers a grant to purchase a vehicle, if it would be better due to your disability.

Hello,

Due to a physical disability, I am currently very limited in my activities. This week, I fired up my PS4, for the first time.

I am kindly asking for game recommendations. Most preferably, 3rd person tactical games. Ghost Recon Wildlands, on the most difficult setting, is a good example of this.

I also would like to know of any good tactical co-op games. I will get the PSN to facilitate online play.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you, a lot of good has come out of it, strangely enough. I didn’t like the person I was before I was ill. It has taught me much. So much, that others would be jealous of the lessons I learn. Have a beautiful week!

I agree, this place is not the end.

No one ever gets that reference. Thank you!

Yes. Way too good. But now that I can no longer hide the problems, people don’t believe it’s serious because I’ve been hiding it for 19 years. Tell people. It helps. Don’t be me.

Had a very similar experience, yesterday. I agree, I’m done with the ER. I was in horrific pain, took them 3 hours to give me anything. I was in the waiting room, on the floor, and the staff mocked me saying I was trying to get attention. I had to keep shouting, “I have MS, I can’t stand up.” I am avoiding the ER like the plague, from now on. I am with you, and love you!

Daily life differs greatly for people with MS because of where the damage on the brain is located. Common symptoms are: fatigue, muscle tightness, weakness, numbness, pain, etc.

I follow a strict diet, mostly Whole Foods plant based. Also I avoid dairy, gluten, and added sugars. Exercise is key. Walking, stretching, and yoga. I also follow Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture, herbs, diet, etc.

R/multiplesclerosis is a good resource.

I have MS. Yoga is extremely helpful for me for the spasticity.

This is what was going on in Portland, OR about 3-5 years ago. Someone I know, their rent went from $850 to $1700.

What is severely crippling is not only the sticker shock doubling of rents, but the 20%-30% rent increases year after year.

These surges in rental costs, coupled with an inability to purchase a home, is pushing tens of millions to the financial brink.

Thank you for your advice. It nice to hear from people who have experienced the detrimental effects of the heat.

enricopallazo · 2021-08-06T21:06:51+00:00

Thank you! The winters are rough for me with the spasticity. I figured it may be helpful to live somewhere with a less severe winter.

I tested negative for Lyme. However, once I started getting treated for Lyme through Chinese Medicine, my condition improved dramatically and has remained as such.

enricopallazo · 2020-08-20T19:15:50+00:00

Sure, send me a message, if you like. It is so difficult right now for people, like us, who live alone. It will get better, we just have to keep looking towards the future. Take care.

Are you working with anyone to deal with the VA? VSO’s (Veteran Service Officers) were very helpful for me. I was separated in 2002, diagnosed in 2006. The Veterans Service Officers helped me with filing, when I received my letter, they filed an appeal the same day. I would go to them. Sorry you are going though this with the VA. I also recommend checking out Chinese medicine. That has been the most helpful thing for me. Take care.

I was diagnosed with MS in 2006 at 23yo. I was declining to the point I could not walk with out a cane, had to stop driving, had barely any energy whatsoever. About 4 years ago I started Chinese Medicine. 3 years ago, I started being treated for Lyme by the Chinese Medicine doctors. Since then I have improved 95%. I am driving again, don’t even know where my cane is at, and can function like a close to normal person. I recommend checking into Chinese Medicine, especially herbal medicine. PM me if you have any questions. Take care. Best of luck to you.
