This should be a relatively short update, like my last one about Rebif. I’ve been on it for 9 weeks now! My last update was at the one month mark – I’ve been on the full 44mcg dose for awhile now, and new side effects results in a new post. I’m feeling particularly proud of… Continue reading 9 Weeks on Rebif
A couple weeks ago, I asked my friends on Instagram what they would like to see on StumblePup about mental health and chronic illness. Their suggestions did not disappoint; everything from cost and accessibility, to medical PTSD and lack of information about the mental health connection in general from providers came up. Rest assured, I… Continue reading Depression and Multiple Sclerosis
This is my second book review, but far from the last. I love reading, and this novella did not disappoint. …in abeyance is one of five books Kevin Byrne sent me. He is a veteran, a father, and a fellow MS Warrior. This book, just like the last one I reviewed, is very much a… Continue reading …in abeyance – My Review
This in the fourth installment in my Introduction to MS series. I’ve already covered a few things, including what it is, the different types, and the myriad of symptoms. The History of MS is almost as complicated as the symptoms can be. The History of MS goes back a long way. Not as far back… Continue reading The History of Multiple Sclerosis: Part 1
When Meg from BBH posted on Insta about signed copies of her book up for grabs, I immediately jumped at the chance. I’ve told her this before, but I was reading her blog before I was even diagnosed.

Ok, fair warning, this is going to be a very long post, unlike the last. Not just because there are a ton of MS symptoms, but because this deserves a spotlight. A lot of our symptoms are invisible. I don’t think this subject should be. Moving on to the fun stuff – insert eyeroll emoji,… Continue reading All The MS Symptoms
This is post going to be fairly short and sweet. In my previous post about Rebif, I went over a lot of the basics about it. Today is going to be a quick update on how the past two weeks, and titration up, have been treating me. I just completed week four, and my final… Continue reading One Month on Rebif
I juggle a lot of hats in life – some I chose, and others were thrust on me. As if being a wife, fur momma, blogger, licensed beauty professional, and ms warrior weren’t enough, (amongst my other autoimmune and medical conditions) I’m also a college student. I’m currently about three weeks from starting the Fall… Continue reading 10 Tips for Students With Disabilities – Prepping for College
So in my last post in this series, I went over what exactly MS is. In this installment, I’ll be going over some of the different types of MS. MS has four generally recognized courses. There are a few rarer types I’m not covering here in depth. I may be able to cover those later… Continue reading The Different Types of MS
Heat intolerance has become a big deal in my household. The temps and humidity sky rocketed around here last weekend – the thermometer may have said 92, but the humidity said it was 110 and impossible to breathe. Obviously, the moment I got outside, I hit a wall of heat and was miserable. MS and… Continue reading 6 Tips to Keep Cool This Summer
