ctsooner,
Each of us is different. There are 8 types of MS. Mine is Primary Progressive. Diagnosed 13 Sept. 2017, Confirmed on 18 Sept. 2017 at University of Chicago.
Yes, I too have issues with getting up and flipping the record to the next side, Finding the next record, cleaning it, getting it to my TTs, cleaning stylus, cueing the tonearm, etc,etc. I am determined to hold on, as long as I can. My room is dedicated, cleaning area is dedicated. I need to be extra careful carrying the record to my TTs. I manage it. The room and everything is setup to help me with every difficult thing in the process. Since, I have become homebound, It is my main enjoyment in life. I also have great WAF.
In my younger years, I was an Airborne / Ranger type guy. Surrender, was not to be found in our training or the manual. There is No Cure. The disease will continue to progress. I will fight to the last. My Best to you.
LP12 owner for 28 years.I could no longer deal with the suspension. Just touching the cueing lever would set the TT in motion. I have resolved this with two unsuspended TTs, A Kuzma Stabi S and a modded Technics SL1200G modded with a Triplanar tonearm.
I get to enjoy my last passion available to me, with a bit of extra work. My 28 year old CDP, bit the dust about 4-5 weeks ago. I have 83 CDs, 4 are test or burn in CDs. No great loss at this time.
The drug that I get by infusion, is supposed to prolong my life and reduce some of the complications. Time will tell.
I will continue with vinyl as long as I can. Digital, just does not cut it for me. Digital will be a last resort when that time comes. Also, having MS does not make me immune from, Cancer, Heart attach or anything else lurking out there.
Hang in there ctsooner, My Best to you and family.
