It's been a while since I wrote on my blog. I've come back from my vacation and have been enjoying the summer months and it's almost time for my children to start school again.
My health is good. I have my days when I am more agitated then others, but I am very happy because I have fasted this month of Ramadan. I did not fast the days I take my shots since I feel I need panadol to help with the joint pain. I am very happy that i was at least able to fast most of the month compared to last year. When I was on Rebif it was impossible.
On another note, today I got great feedback about the products that I make for my business. It was very positive and very promising. I know I have a treasure in my hands and with the will of God, I will make a difference in people's lives.

Update Since MRI
I haven't updated my blog for a while. My MRI went well. The doctor told me that I have no new lesions and that they have all gotten a bit smaller. To me that is great news! If you look back on my blog, almost exactly a year ago some time in July, I said that I would be MS free a year from the time I wrote that message. I am not MS free, but I am on my way to recovery. He of course thinks that the vitamins have nothing to do with it, God only knows, but I am still taking them along with the weekly shots.
My son's operation also went well. We are all in good health and I am now taking a little vacation visiting my family. My business is all set up and ready to go. When I get back to my home I plan on starting to get it going. With the will of God, it will be a success.

Scheduled to do MRI
Since the last time, I didn't take my shot on time. My body reacted poorly. I felt as if my body got used to the shot. I went back the next day and took my shot. I'm dong well. I just get extreme tension at times especially the day of the injection.
My business is coming along. I'm very hopeful and nervous as well. I pray that I will be able to carry on the business and it will only strengthen me, inside and out.
I am scheduled to do an MRI on Saturday. With the will of God, it will show me that I am on my way to recovery. The next day my son is to do surgery. I'm not worried about it. He has to do a tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy and a right meringotomy. They are all simple procedures and I think it will clear up any of the problems he has with the ear, nose, and throat with the will of God.

Extreme Tension
I feel extreme tension build up. I feel it in my head. Everything bothers me and gets to me. I feel extremely fragile today. I can't take it anymore. I feel maybe I really need to do something about it. I overreact to everything more then ever. I need to just relax. I think I will stop taking the shots for a little bit and see how I feel. With the will of God, I will make the right decision and stick to it.

Update on My Health
The test results were all fine. However, I do think I have Candida. Even though the tests don't show it, I know it is not detectable in tests many times. The fact that i had it in my stool test after my operation also indicates that it is present even if now it is not detectable. I am eating well. I take vitamins regularly, and I try to eat as gluten free as possible. I feel alright these days. I'm accomplishing what I set out to do every day and my mood is alright. My business is coming along and I'm very hopeful about its future.

Update after Operation
Ever since my operation I have felt my stomach is not quite right. I have lost some weight and find it very difficult to put weight on. It's very frustrating. I decided to go to an internal doctor and took some tests and they should be out by tomorrow. Other than that, I have been working on my business idea more and more and it's really coming along. I really feel it is going to be a great success with the will of God, because it is truly coming from my heart.

Just did an Appendectomy
I just came out of surgery. I removed my appendix. It all happened when I felt a pain on my lower side of my abdomen. I waited for two days before I decided to check it out. I went to an internist who asked me to get an ultrasound. The radiologist was explaining to me that all was clear until he arrived at my appendix. He said it was infected and the lymph nodes were also infected. He did not say directly that it needed to be removed but he said for me to go back to my doctor. I went back to the internist who then said he thinks It should be removed but that I should go and see the surgeon first.
The surgeon who I was supposed to see was in the operating room so i saw another surgeon who when he first saw me said it doesn't look like i have an appendix problem since I was not in obvious pain, but after examining me and realzing that i had pain in the area of the appendix he said he would schedule me to do the operation that very day. I went along with what was happening so far. I got to my hospital room and my loved owned were with me when the actual surgeon comes in and says that I didn't look like I needed this operation. He vaguely checks me and prescribes to me some antibiotics and tells me to come back after four days. At this point, I'm really confused!
We decide to go to another hospital for a second opinion. The surgeon who checks me says that from a clinical point of view it is not clear that I am in need of an operation but that I have to do another ultrasound. When the radiologist examines me he immediately says that I do have to do the surgery because my appendix is pretty badly infected. At that point I am pretty convinced that I have to do the surgery. I went back to the surgeons office and he admitted me into the hospital for surgery that night. I got settled in the room and then the surgeon comes in and says that the they decided it would be better to operate in the morning because the staff will be more available if there is any kind of an emergency. The anesthesiologist recommended that idea I think mainly because I have MS. I wasn't to sure of all of that but just went with it.
I didn't' sleep much that night and in the morning at around 9:00 I did my operation. I only remember laying down on the operating table, the anesthesiologist telling me he was putting the drug in my body and then I woke up to the doctor saying my name. The first thing I thought was that I was choking and I barely had any energy to say "I can't breath." They gave me a breathing mask and after a little while I recovered. I felt that way because it turns out they had a tube down my throat which was removed and my throat felt really clogged and uncomfortable.
Anyway, I am back home now. I spent two nights in the hospital and left on the third night. My body feels pretty weak but getting better. I not only have pain in the area of the operation but severe shoulder pain. Both shoulders but mainly the right shoulder. It turns out that's a side effect of the operation. It's great to be home and back in the world of life and movement. It feels great to be with my family! I love life. I love to be alive and moving and healthy. I pray that I will have only gained more strength to live life to the fullest after this incident in my life. I am very grateful for everything and during the whole time I knew that I was going to be fine because I kept talking to God and saying "God I don't know, only you know, guide me."
