Quiet as a moose. That’s right. It’s not a typo. Moose. Not mouse. Moose. Multiple sclerosis has turned me into a walking, err, scuffling noisemaker. Hospitals could hire me to wake people from a coma. I don’t understand how it happens. I am trying to be quiet but the harder I try-the more …
Sing along with one of my fav posts… Since its debut in 2001, Menopause The Musical has entertained audiences throughout the world. Due to their phenomenal success, My Odd Sock thought it was damn time multiple sclerosis has a show of its own. And thus, presents….. Like the predecessor, MS The Musical will showcase …
Enjoy this old, old My Odd Sock from 2013. It is so yucky it deserves a 2nd look! (New stuff coming soon!) We’re in a sticky situation here. One from which we need to wash our hands of the problem. (And use anti-bacterial lotion if available.) You see, we …

Hmm, maybe I’ll have a snack. Not really hungry just something to tied me over. A nosh. Just pecking on a bit. You know the feeling. Time to amble over to the pantry and take a looksy to see what I can find. Always something in the pantry, right? Behold on …

First off, what will we talk about? I’m doing fine. Plugging along. I’m happy with my treatment regimen (Ocrevus for MS, Botox …
