Below was excerpted from the http://www.msaawareness.org/ website. It’s almost funny that the worst part of what’s left of my life right now is not this disease. A monthly disability check and a future life insurance policy is all that seems to remain of what’s important about me. I either can’t do what is said below or they don’t matter.
1. PREVENT INFECTIONS
2. WATCH FOR SLEEP AND BREATHING PROBLEMS
3. BE AWARE OF SITUATIONS THAT CAN AFFECT BLOOD PRESSURE
4. BE CAREFUL OF SURGERY/ANESTHESIA
5. BE CAREFUL WITH OVER-THE-COUNTER COLD/FLU/ALLERGY MEDICATIONS
6. PREVENT FALLS
7. AVOID EXTREME HEAT OR COLD
8. EXERCISE!
9. PREPARE FOR EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS
10. BE READY TO ADVOCATE AND TO COORDINATE A TEAM OF DOCTORS
