Thirteen years ago this month, I became a Mom. It was one of the biggest, if not the biggest, turning points of my life. We just celebrated my son's birthday with a fun day at a skateboard park followed by a surprise gathering of family and close friends. Thirteen...Wow! About fourt...

White Puff

Hey Gina,
I had that white puff too back in 2005. My doctor's office has an infusion center so I just went in there for a few hours in the early morning and then back home by late morning. And my white puff showed up when baby #2 was 1.25 years old. But I was working a lot of hours and stressed because I had wanted to get so much done so that the guy to take over my job wouldn't have a big mess to clean up. So I was a bit stressed.
I had headaches for 2 weeks before the puff showed up. Didn't associate the headache with MS until the puff showed up. When I explained it to people, I said it was like a piece of fuzz that didn't go away when I wiped my eye but I like the white puff better.
Thanks for sharing. You are the first person I've heard of that had this sensation. I had the 5 days of the soli too. Thought I'd share.

Thanks for the comment Kristin! I feel like I'm in a Creative Writing class when I try to describe my symptoms. So, white puff seemed appropriate. Sorry that you had it too, but it's comforting to hear that I'm not "the only one".
