I had my follow-up visit yesterday with my neurologist to review the MRIs taken last week.  I have been diagnosed with having ALS.  It's hard for me to share the news because I like to post things that brings a smile to my friends here on CC.  I know that things will be challenging but for now things are good.  Thanks for all the prayers. 

Thinking of you and will keep you and your loved ones in my prayers.

Thank you Dani! And to all the wonderful contributors to this thread.

You've made us all feel welcome ... even if we don't contribute.

Cheers ... 🥂

So I met my goal of gaining no more than 10 pounds on this cruise. I think a lot of it is liquid weight because I have already lost 1.5 pounds in a day.

 

I still have huge cankles. I’ve been sleeping at night with my feet elevated and it has helped. I figure a few more days and I should be ok. Going to need to figure out on future cruises what do to prevent this. Either by taking water pills or sitting in a sauna because I’m not willing to give up the good food and drinks. Any ideas on what you guys do or other tips out there?

I may be new here but to add my 2 cents ... I find that drinking coconut water helps me. I think it's the potassium and magnesium in it, but make sure it is the unsweetened type. I like the Costco brand myself.

Thank you all for taking me along on this wonderful adventure. Because of all the different contributors I got to visit a whole lot of new places, sample many more different meals, and all those adult beverages! Wow! Almost ... not really ... as good as being there.

Thanks again from a long time lurker on both Bella's and Dani's threads.
