Jessie has me worried

She woke up a couple of nights ago with a lot of pain in her wrist, her arm was all blotchy and it was numb and ice cold. Her neck hurt too. With MS, you just never know when an attack will come.

She went to the doctor yesterday and he thinks she may have a pinched nerve in her neck that's causing a blood clot in her arm which won't allow the blood to circulate properly. Not MS related (thank goodness) but blood clots can travel. She went for an MRI this morning and has to go back Tuesday for her results.

She also has heart issues which may have been from the pain meds she was on originally. She told me today that she's going to the cardiologist next week too to follow up on that. She says she can feel her heartbeat slow down and she gets very tired. She decided that maybe her meds are too high again. I hope it's that simple!

Tuesday is the day Gracie Leigh gets her stitches out. God willing, I won't have to, but I can just drive up there if she needs me.

Even before the MS, I used to tease her and tell her that she was just such a flower. I'm so healthy (Thank you, God!) and she's just fragile. I really wish she had my genes. I've never even been hospitalized except to give birth!
