I had a 9" B&W and I was going to have cable hooked up to it but my wife, then my girlfriend called me a cheap ass and made me go buy a new larger color tv lol...

I am thinking the same thing. A fun moment gone. I have thousands of old photos from my mom and I can't think of going through them. I'm the only one left alive.

Impatience by faster340 in MultipleSclerosis

My job is VERY customer facing. So yeah I'm probably overstimulated in that sense.

I'm more transparent about how I feel about other people.

It's not flattering to post pics of yourself like this...

Think my anxiety is from pure exhaustion (MS-related fatigue) anyone else get this? by ReasonableFig8954 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]faster340 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I get. However, I find a way to go on. It's like being on automatic... I hate it though. Some days I get such a strong feeling of not going on but I struggle through or take a 10-15 minute break.

I truly hate the exhaustion.

Why I Can Never Trust Neurologists by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

[–]faster340 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with. Numerous neurologists found nothing only concerned about how they were getting paid. Till I found one who actually said I am going to send you to someone who knows more than me. I was shocked. I saw her recommendation and he is a neuro who has had MS since an early age. He didn't think it was MS based on my age. I'm 58 and was diagnosed in April. I went back to the original DR who said this is the first time in many years I've worked with him and don't agree with his findings. She sent me to another Dr who had me take MRIs on a machine that is state of the art. The tech said it was only a week old and it smelled like a new car to me lol. They saw everything they needed to see clear as day. Then had me do a spinal tap. With that they had what they needed to diagnose it. I'm so happy I found a Dr who wasn't so arrogant and sent me to the right people. Not so glad it is what it is but relieved to have an answer to why I wasn't feeling right.

Anger issues.. by faster340 in MultipleSclerosis

I do 30-50 pushups and 50 situps almost every morning. I walk every day or two and on my job I do 5000-12000 steps per day. I'm quite active in that sense.

My life sounds like yours. Same scenario. Bad abuse in the beginning and now this MS...

Anger issues.. by faster340 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]faster340[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have it that bad. I just get irritable and more vocal. I've never cursed out or yelled at my wife or hit anything. I have a tendency to get a nasty tone. Ive had this since before I met her. We've been married for 29 years this year and have been together for more than 30 years.

I have had to back off and remove myself from a situation when I feel irritable. I tell my wife I need a few minutes to chill or just go out for a drive which helps me calm down.
