Hi Debi,
Thanks for getting back with me. I'm not doing very well and waiting for my 2/24 appointment with my neurologist. I've been having what I call 'brain zaps' recently and have made an appointment with the surgeon who removed a brain tumor in 2010. My GP seems useless. I made a big mistake 10 months ago telling him I visited a psychologist. Since then everything wrong with me is psychosomatic, no matter how much evidence proves him wrong, and it drives me nuts that I have to somehow prove my veracity. It seems he's developed an hypothesis that no fact shall alter. One doctor tells me I'm probably dying but we're going to wait a few weeks to fill you in and another tells me to see a shrink. This really sucks especially in that my father, who is dying of cancer, recently moved in with us. How this must look to the kids. How motivational.

Thanks for letting me get that out! I have recently had some painful moments in my feet and hope they stay away. Probably gods way of saying ' hey cheer up, it could be worse'.
How often do you get the pain sensations ? Did it start gradually and does the pain medication help ?

Best regards,

Jeff
