    I keep a ” veggie/ fruit” bag from the produce section tucked under the seat of my chair to go over my joystick in case I get caught out in in climate weather.  Works like a dream!!

    OH MY WORD YES!! My potassium bottoms out on a regular basis. (I’ve never been given an explanation as to why.) I do take Spironolactone which is a diuretic and has a potassium preservative in it so it’s getting better…

    That potassium I.v is killer!! The numbing agent doesn’t really help either. The only solution I’ve found to help is to ask to have it ran EXTREMELY S.L.O.W!!! That seems to help quite a bit more than the numbing.

    Hope this helps!!

    CMT…Charcot Marie Tooth. The disease with the weird name! Nothing weird about this disease. Yes, I have it and both of my adult children do as well. UGH!!

    Hey everyone! I wanted to answer Dani’s question about premade foods…I use Mom’s Meal’s. They are pretty good. Delivered to my door every 2 weeks. I can either microwave or pop one in the oven. Very convenient for me on a rough day. There’s low carb, low sodium to choose from. I’m happy with them. I really like the breakfast options the best.  Blessings, C~
