Thankfully, I'm not having a PML scare yet (hopefully ever), PML is just a possibility with this new med. I posted it this way because a week ago I started another new med & posted about its worst possible side effect. Sorry if I was confusing, and thanks for the encouraging words.

That said, I just read a (presumably) click bait headline stating that @ autopsy, 100% of people w/ MS were found to have a brain parasite. So, if I'm gonna have a parasite why not a brain infection, too. Double the fun. 🤷🤞

Picture of a smiling Caucasian girl from the chest up. She has brown asymmetrically cut hair and a side part. She's wearing dark blue, rectangular glasses and a white tshirt. On top she has a black collared athletic shirt that says 'Walk MS Maryland Walk 2014 Elite Feet' . The photo is angled with her head in the top right corner with her body going to the bottom left. The photo appears to be reversed because the words on her black shirt are backwards.
Photo of the same smiling girl, just 10 yrs older. Her hair is a little bit longer than chin-length now, and there are layers along the left side. Her glasses are now a bit larger and more square and they're a dark tortoiseshell. She's wearing a navy blue sweater with a stripe down the center. On top of that, she has an aqua, quilted half-zip jacker that has rectangular green yellow and red LL Bean lable on the front left breast and dark seafoan green trimming. The pic is only from the chest up, and she is in front of an off-white wall.
Moving on up.
Have a great job, an amazing girlfriend, fabulous friends, & just got an apartment that checks all the boxes on my needs list. Still a work in progress (aren't we all?), but if only 2015 Beth could see how far she'd go in 10yrs.
Started a new med today. Gotta love side effects that could be worse than the reason you're telling the med in the 1st place.
Most likely = flushing, itching, nausea... I'll deal w/ them if it helps my walk. Least likely = seizures... 1st instance & I'm done w/ this med.

Yup.

* specifics available as appropriate.
House is getting listed in Feb/March. I'm already looking at apts. We'll see what happens.

Any help convincing me to get off my butt tonight & go to a #profsandpints lecture on psychadelics would be appreciated.
The storm won't end for a while, & even then the world won't be the same, but here's hoping Bluesky lives up to its name providing periods of lightness and warmth when we need it most.
