MRI and EEG, it's ataxia time! |
|
:D
Well, the neurologist (one who knows his stuff too, fortunately) definitely noticed some things going on. I'm also off of work for the entire week. :-( (I can still write cohesively, but I'm still having problems speaking and driving...)
There was another note he'd mentioned, something about "demyelinating"...
And then there's work. I know that other people who had health problems usually get nagged to "retire early", but that's for another day. Preferably in a few years from now. :-)

1. Well, good to hear you finally have doctors who listen to you ... |
|
and seem to be interested in finding out what's going on.
Sorry you're having to go through it, though, and that it's taken you this long to get somebody to listen to you.

That sounds really serious. Have you had these symptoms all of your life? Best of luck to you. :hug:

4. Some more than others. |
|
The tremor has been around for a while; the spasm starting something like 2 years ago, but quite worse now, by comparison. (And as I've been anxious without the spasming and have had spasms when NOT anxious, I know it is not caused by anxiety though I know it can be worse when I'm anxious or fatigued.)
Thanks for the :hug:.
While there's life, there's hope. And I finished crying while driving home, anyway. :-)

heard a great lecture yesterday about how great oyster mushrooms are as a treatment for cancer, MS, lots of stuff like that. So keep up the sunny attitude--help is on the...forest floor!

5. And oysters are good for one's sex life too! |

Now as long as whatever condition I've got doesn't scare away my new 'friend'... :D
(oh, I'm keeping my sense of humor. No way I'm getting rid of it...)
