I dont normally set resolutions for myself but this year I am. I have lost approximately 160 lbs in over just a year and I am going to lose another 70-80 lbs this year.... Then maybe do a little shopping but not a lot. Now onto my second choice that I have to make. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have for a while now. Anyways a year ago I started a new medication called Aubagio and shortly after I had an MRI done. Its now been 9-10 months since my last MRI to my most recent one at the beginning of December. It came back showing an increase in lesions on my upper spine (neck) and my brain. I have a total of 8 new lesions and I was told thats very aggressive. This is because the norm as per a neurologist is leas then one a year to one in two years and I have managed 8 new ones in 9-10 months. Now I am onto second line treatment because I am not responding to first line treatments anymore or at all. My issue is whether or not I even want to take anything at all. The side effects from the second line meds really suck. They range from JVC brain virus, cardiovascular issues, breathing issues, vision issues, and many other issues so is it worth it. Input is always welcome. Oh done my last dose of iv steroids thank good five days is enough.
