How are you doing with all the crazy weather changes? The humidity bothers my #MS and causes my hands to shake more than usual. Sucks when you work with your hands. Lol 🤷🏼‍♀️ #multiplesclerosis #endo #chronicillness #trigeminalneuralgia #endometriosis #thisisme

I've been asked if I am still writing & my answer is... YES absolutely! With moving & some emergencies, I just haven't had time to type & submit stuff but things are coming! ✍🏼 #MS #multiplesclerosis #chronicillness #endometriosis #trigeminalneuralgia #writing

It feels like forever since I've been on here but I'm here and life is officially calming down a little. We have been getting moved & settled into our new house. 🏠 #newhome #endometriosis #MS #chronicillness #trigeminalneuralgia #thisisme

March is also Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month. I had a feeling that I had #MS in 2018 but I just ignored it until I couldn't anymore. I was officially diagnosed in August of 2021. #multiplesclerosis #msawarenessmonth #nervepain #facialpain #chronicillness

March is endometriosis awareness month! 💛 I was diagnosed on Jan 4 2018 after spending 20 years in agonizing pain. #endometriosis #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth #endo #endendo #chronicillness #chronicpain

February is Rare Disease Awareness Month. I live with Trigeminal Neuralgia which affects around 4-13 people per 100,000 each year. #TN #MS #trigeminalneuralgia #facialpain #chronicillness #chronipain #rarediseasemonth

Its almost 3am & I'm realizing that the shock while brushing my teeth this evening is definitely a full on #TN attack. Ugh! 😢 #trigeminalneuralgia #MS #multiplesclerosis #facialpain #chronicillness #chronicpain #chronicallyme #thisisme

Five inches of snow & 15degrees never stopped us from having fun. @pjschropp.bsky.social is out shoveling for neighbors while me & the dog are running around playing. ❄️ #snow #winter #ms #multiplesclerosis #endo #endometriosis #chronicillness

How's everyone doing with the colder weather? I actually feel good with colder temps. The heat & humidity is not a friend to my MS. #MS #multiplesclerosis #chronicillness #endo #chronicpain #westernpa #itsfallyall #fallweather #trigeminalneuralgia

New writing is coming soon!!! My process... I do notes on my phone or in a journal, then write it then type it, edit a few times then finally I submit it! ✍🏼 #writer #writing #blog #healthblog #endo #MS #TN #multiplesclerosis #trigeminalneuralgia #chronicillness

My husband (@pjschropp.bsky.social) & I have a classic car so we've been busy on the weekends with car cruises which are so fun but so exhausting. I swear I'm still recovering from last weekend. But we will be taking a break for a few weeks tho! #classiccars #chevybelair #ms #endo #thisisme

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 22/08/2025

It's annoying isn't it?!? Have you found anything to help at least a little? 🧡

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 22/08/2025

Yes fatigue is a struggle for sure! Have you found anything that helps with fatigue or vision? I learned that reading everyday has been a little bit of a physical therapy for my eyes... Just a little though. 🧡

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 22/08/2025

I personally haven't dealt with that (yet) but it sounds awful. Gentle hugs to you!

Exactly! 'We survive.' We adapt and keep going. 🧡

My MS is not ok with the heat today! Outside is just being rude! 🥵 #MS #MultipleSclerosis #chronicillnrss #Neurology #heatwave

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 18/07/2025

What is the most annoying symptom of your chronic illness? Mine is vision issues. One minute I'm fine then all of a sudden things are blurry. To be clear this is not all the time. It's very random. #MS life. #MultipleSclerosis #endo #chronicillness #trigeminalneuralgia

Two days ago we got flooded... Again! Luckily we've done a lot of work around the house to help protect us. Btw this is just a small stream which turns into not so small. 🤷🏼‍♀️ #flooding #climatechange #science #westernpa

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 16/07/2025

I turned 40 on July 3 & I have decided that this will be MY decade! My 20s & 30s were not so nice to me so now I'm choosing to take MY life back as I navigate through these chronic illnesses. 💪🏼 #MS #multiplesclerosis #endo #endometriosis #trigeminalneuralgia #chronicillness #thisisme

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 16/07/2025

My husband & I officially had central AC installed in our house. This is crazy to me because I never had real AC. We chose a good time since the heat this year is brutal. Growing up, my idea of AC was a box fan in a window. 🤣 #MS #chronicillness #endo #humidity #heat #weather

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

The emotional weight of the disease is like watching your life in fast forward & mourning all the things you'll miss. It's a complicated, exhausting, confusing jumble of emotions. But don't feel defeated! Fight through it. 💪🏼 #MS #multiplescleosis #endo #endometriosis #chronicillness

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 25/06/2025

I hope everyone is surviving this heat wave! Stay cool & stay hydrated y'all! Remember to check in on the elderly & chronically ill. #MS #MultipleSclerosis #chronicillness #endo #heatwave2025 #weather

Try to stay cool! This is brutal. 🥵

A heat wave is knocking on the door here in western PA & I'm not looking forward to it. Yes I want a break from rain but I'm not ready for the 90 degree days! 🥵 #weather #MS #MultipleSclerosis #endo #chronicillness #hydration #heatwave2025

Wow small world, I'm in Beaver county too. I actually taught photography at ccbc years ago. That is great to hear about Dems in your community, I live in an area that is quite red however we noticed a lot more signs for Dems this past election than usual.

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

I just noticed on your page that you are in PA. I am in western PA... Happy to "meet" a fellow Pennsylvanian on here. 🙂

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Thank you. I actually used to teach photography at a local community college. I moved on from the teaching many years long before my health took a turn. But I'm staying hopeful to maybe make a comeback with my camera one day! 📷

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Thank you. Photography has been my life. It was very hard to make the decision to close my studio. I always liked the feeling of holding my camera myself. I'm hopeful to one day make things work again but my MS tremors are so unpredictable. 📷

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

So sorry to hear this. It's so hard to give up what we love.

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 25/04/2025

Have you given up anything in your life because of your health? I gave up photography. I closed my studio a few years ago & it makes me sad but it's hard with tremors. Maybe one day I'll make it work again. 🤷🏼‍♀️ #chronicillness #MS #multiplesclerosis #endo #photography #artist #thisisme #mystory

That would be nice if we had AC but our window unit has not been put in yet. Last week it was snowing. Lol.

My MS was not prepared for it to be 84 degrees today. I do better in cooler weather. #MS #multiplesclerosis #chronicillness #trigeminalneuralgia #autoimmune #weather #springtime

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 18/04/2025

I'm glad you have found that tolerable. It's always tough just never knowing. Where I get my MRIs, they have a wide machine but I still hate it. 🧡

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 18/04/2025

Meditation can be such a helpful thing. I meditate a lot even outside of the MRI. They give me a towel to put over my eyes. I may have to try this headphones idea. 🙂

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 18/04/2025

Thank you. It's a struggle isn't it and it's a test that we can't avoid. I'm wishIng all the best for you this year. 🧡

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

Far too long for a diagnosis. Hugs to you!

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

How are you doing with your symptoms? It's been a little bit since we've chatted.

Jenn Schropp @msendojenn.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

Not only do I live with #endometriosis but I also deal with MS and trigeminal neuralgia. All suck! MS and TN are the worst of my worries at this point in my life as they take over much more time & energy. But here I am, still standing & still fighting! #multiplesclerosis #trigeminalneuralgia #endo
