M/S How do you function?
I think I jinxed myself bc MS officially kicked in yesterday and I've felt like crap ever since. I'm not getting sick (yet) just feel like I'm going to. What's the tips?

ITA with this. My ms kicked in a few days ago and it's hardcore. I also find that soda helps.

Re: M/S How do you function?
I didn't function 
There were two weeks that were really bad, and I literally stayed in bed for those 2 weeks.
I only ate what I thought I could keep down and I did a lot of resting. It was really rough. I was on the couch or in bed from weeks 6-12.
You will get through it  If it gets that bad you can talk to your Dr about medication. I didn't have to work so I did not go on anything but if I had a 9-5 job there is no way I could have gotten up, driven to work and functioned without medication.

Lots of peppermint candies, and agree with everyone else that small meals are best. I have to eat every 2-3 hours or else I'm sick to my stomach and on the cusp of MS.

Just find all the closest bathrooms, carry around plastic bags and gum. Sorry, but it does get better

Rest and relax as much a possible. I found that helped a lot. Keep your meals small and bland. Water was actually making me feel worse so I switched to flat ginger ale and that was a help. If you have to be out of the house, just keep plastic bags close by - always know where the bathroom is - dress comfy and stay sitting as much as possible. Feel better. Its hard to imagine now but it will pass!

Small carb meals every 1.5 hours.
Rest when you can.
Feel better!
