Why Do Your Legs Feel Like Jelly With MS? Read Article...

Thank You That Was So Sweet

I have trouble driving, but not due to jelly legs. My visual processing speed is much slower than it used to be, and I struggle on 2-lane roads, especially if they are narrow or winding. It's very fatiguing, and I've had some anxiety issues with it. It's worse with a podcast or book on tape...I can only listen to something gentle that I don't have to track, and sometimes not even that. Also, I can't handle the light flickering through the trees on the sides of the road. I have to cover my head with a black towel...lol, it's probably hysterical to other drivers Or long drives. Used to like road trips...can't do that now. My husband is getting a lot more time behind the wheel also. Thankful for him, and his flexible schedule!

I'm lucky as only left leg weakness and foot drop, so far, knock on wood. Driving is a concern with MS depending on your symptoms. Your hubby likely knows you best so high five him from me for keeping you safe.
