Blog about a blog

Blog about a blog


It’s now fast (feels like anyway) approaching autumn 2017 and I have achieved a blogging target! May not seem like a massive target to some, but 10+k views make me happy and it’s down to you guys – humongous (recently heard the word!) thanks!

The subject title - “Blog about a blog” - Another confusing one? Would you expect anything else! I know there are other clearer ones… As I have no clear ‘event’ or similar to rattle on about, I will touch on some of my passions and their blog subject intent.

Looking at the About Me tab on my page, we have ‘Sport’ up top. More focused on Newcastle United Football Club (NUFC) really, and my early claim that “This will be an ongoing blog!”. Yet to start that I know. It is coming; with the Premiership title! Calm down Roj, dreaming is allowed. Champions League spot?

Music. Pretty well covered with blogs as-is, but there is and will be no end in my musical journey. The day that ends, I will cry! Might have a new one coming soon if I get my finger out…


The ‘Work’ bleep is also sadly covered – never say never that this is 100% finished – no additions currently. Grumble.

MS! This (MS blogging topic) should receive more attention as it is my, err, thing, that I live with and respect. Until recently there was a great deal of medical and research projects highly visible if knowing where to look for them. Now though, that rush of advancements seems, to the public eye, to have slowed down. #Nonewsgoodnews? Let’s hope so!

Other Crack. Indeed! “Any other business” or just me adding some other subjects of interest:
Mathematical Pi
Pi; and (I said) Films. However, currently certain TV grabs one’s attention more so.

Yoda story. Enhance this story I will.

MS Phugoid. Think ups and downs.

“What do you do?” Killer dating question?

Food. This should NOT be at the end of this short summarised ‘contents list’ and will become – I strongly hope – a new page en route.

So that opens the door for me to stop messing about and not doing what I DO enjoy doing – and BLOG! The foundations are set.


Coming soon: more (fitting) pages to make this teaser worthwhile!

MS

Living with MS Edinburgh *This is my bit blog and therefore my thoughts/options * on Living with MS Edinburgh being an information day for anyone affected by MS that I happily attended, and will be more about the day than the travel to and from it ! This event was held in the Sheraton Hotel which was beautifully laid out, in a spacious floor in the hotel with many orange-clad volunteers supporting the 150 attendees. MS Scotland The area in the hotel had been planned well, wasn’t too big or small offering fine accessibility and had plenty of MS stuff throughout! So what was the order of the day, what happened? It began with a welcome from the chair, Mary Douglas from the MS Society Scotland (9:45 – 10:00) welcoming us and touching on what was ahead. Breaking Boundaries in MS Research , was started straight after ( ~ 10:00) by Becky Driscoll. A fairly generic(ish) overview (IMO!) of MS initially, presented very well. The content was detailed and shows/sh...

Is what it is

Is what it is IT IT IT! There is no “It” in the title. Well, apart from actually making up the word “tITtle”! Not a mistake. When chatting about whatever, and #MS comes up as pretty usual when at an MS Social, that phrase is an acknowledgement of acceptance (canny phrase itself!). By saying it, we know that we do know what we/it mean/s. Good repeatability there! For myself, even by voicing it with another understanding MSer, it’s like a ‘mutual respectful recognition’ sharing. Acceptance. Here’s a tangent. I have recently started with Ocrevus as my DMD . So far (literally a couple of months as of typing) so good. It is doing it’s thing. I’m no better, and much more importantly no worse. Yes, I have had questions about my Ocrevus, due to the lowering of one’s immune system, and feeling terrible for a while. But! This time of year everybody seems to pick up a ‘bug’ or 2. Even some bloody COVID – I didn’t – phew. SAD. That’s S.A.D. “Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is...

Ocrevus

  Ocrevus . Notes 1 The infusion was completed at 1pm, and I was asked to wait for 15 minutes after the cannula had been removed. I was told to take it easy for the rest of the day, that'd I'd be tired. Body not used to the new drug, nor my mind, given that I had been anxious about #Ocrevus day. Ok then, I'll accept a lazy day. Was planning a curry takeaway anyway! I am tired. A few nights of bad / poor sleep. Ocrevus. Notes 2 Second infusion (second half dose) done by 1ish. Then again asked to rest for the day. Yes, as per, I was tired. #Anxiety due to an earlier taxi booking (for 07:20), with the small alarm fear! And also a few wake-ups during the night. Usual, but! Prepared with laptop, phone (obviously), headphones, sarnie, bottle of water, and chargers in case. And a BBCi downloaded film. The same as my first unknown Ocrevus trip. Slower start than last infusion, but after the paracetamols and antihistamine, the weak steroid infusion did its thing for half an hour; wi...
