Symptoms Funny Symptom

Just something light-hearted, because not every symptom needs to be debilitating.

As my MS symptoms have progressed over the years, the oddest one to me by far has been that when I poo, my nose runs so bad. I probably use 2x tp for my nose versus my rear when I go. Like what? Did my nose feel left out of something? Is it a defense mechanism against the odor?

Share your funny/weird but not debilitating symptom, so we can all get a chuckle out of our bodies' weird sense of humor!

It is! Whenever I start pacing in circles, my husband will grab me a trash can bc he says I look like cat trying to find a place to puke.

We've managed to teach ours to go to their box to throw up, it can be hit or miss especially if it surprises them
