3 Blondes 1 Battle

21/01/2025

It is FREEZING for all 3 of us. haha. Indiana, North Carolina and Florida!
Today we decided to chat about a few things that are happening in our lives as we manage this crazy FUN disease!
A TENS unit, or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation unit, is a small device that delivers electrical impulses through adhesive pads placed on the skin to help relieve pain. It works by blocking pain signals to the brain and stimulating the production of natural pain relievers called endorphins.
AND
The Bioness L300® is a compact wireless device worn on a patient’s leg to help improve walking abilities. The system features a sensor that detects walking patterns, enabling patients to automatically adjust to different surfaces, walking speeds and uneven ground. Through electrical stimulation, the Bioness L300 retrains lower leg muscles, increasing motion and blood circulation and enabling the return to a more normal step.
Lets chat!

My neurologist is going to put me in for a PT consult for this device.

2024 is coming to a close.
Do you ever journal a recap of your year?
I like calling it, 'stones of remembrances'.
Where was God's grace and his faithfulness in it all?
What did you pray for throughout the year?
What can you be grateful for right now heading into Thanksgiving?
Lets chat

Okay. Listen.

If you manage , look up Thymosine Alpha & Beta.

Thymosins are a soluble hormone-like peptides produced by the thymus gland.

Conclusion of a few studies I found: Based on the data that Tα1 and Tβ4 act as anti-inflammatory molecules and as inducers of myelin repair and neuronal protection, respectively, a possible therapeutic application in MS for Tα1 and Tβ4 alone or combined with other approved drugs may be envisaged.

You guys!!!!! Read that again!!!! This is huge!!

I have 3 weeks worth in this vial. I will be keeping notes on how it’s feeling. 💪✌️🙏
