We have had very unusual weather this winter here. (What area hasn't). However, instead of cold and snow we've had the opposite. Here it is February and we have highs in the low 60's! Where is our snow this year??? My bulbs think it's spring and have begun growing. Heck most of them are 3 inches above ground already! I'm afraid my Magnolia tree will also think it's spring and start blooming. If that happens I know we'll have a hard freeze and they will die :(
Although for all my worry over my garden I am appreciating the beauty I see. Snow still caps the mountains all around me, yet I can look down and see the first Verbena flowers of the year already blooming in a vibrant red in the garden. My day lily's are up and I'm waiting for their first blooms to appear.
My garden reminds me of my journey with MS. It's all about perspective. I can bemoan the fact that my flowers are already starting to bloom or hush up and simply enjoy their beauty. I can also bemoan the fact that I am required to use a cane to walk at all times or hush up and be thankful I CAN walk.
So today, I'm not going to worry about what tomorrow will bring. I'm simply going to enjoy the beauty of the day.

YES, you should absolutely be receiving treatment. Call the Neurologist up and let them know what's going on. I would also let your primary care physician know!
