Sally, we definitely have the doctors running scared!!
I had one neuro resident tell me last year she was going to give me a blood test to rule out sarcoidosis. She said to me that she wouldn't explain what that was "because you'll only go home and look it up on the internet anyway". Darn tootin' lady!! The nerve of patients - wanting to find out about diseases they're being tested for...
Cricket, I haven't had a hot bath since, I'm too much of a wuss! Plus it wasn't a good look having to call hubby to haul me out! (Rest assured I have, however had showers!!!)
Spuggs, I remember reading your story at BT1 - I can't believe you've gone through so much, and with such obvious signs, without having a spinal MRI. I hope you do start to look for answers again.
