I went to my dr today. God answered my prayer and she was like a different woman, literally, kind, sweet, NICE, open to suggestion...PRAYER WORKS. amen

Even hubby said the change was night and day. She even looked at and READ the EM info and agreed I probably had it as a secondary condition. However, she said treatment remains the same either way, which is somewhat correct and I knew that, though there are other options. She said the magnesium is simply over the counter choice, which I was not sure of, I thought Dr Cohen used stronger stuff but I didn't know.

The said no to gout in her opinion, which I agree, my symptoms do not present as gout. She did draw blood to test for heavy metals at my suggestion, though I believe hair testing is better, this was my only option. She does not feel the need for any further testing, which surprised me since we have not tested for hardly anything. In her opinion, it seemed she felt the options are not anything reversable so why test.

Treatment is remain on gaba until it wont work anymore, raising to the limit. Which may be sooner than later, since my muscle pain is bad. She was surprised by that but I seem to have issues with muscle pain as even micardis did it to me and it was a rare side effect for that med also.

She is calling in a compounding cream with gaba, nortriptline, and lidocane.

She also suggested ultra sound therapy.

After that she wants cymbalta or lyrica. I kept silent on that.

One day at a time. One hour at a time. One moment at a time.
