I saw a new neuro a few weeks back, having moved states and not seen a neuro for several years. He ordered an MRI and did nerve conduction studies.
He told me there was no change since my last MRI and the NC studies were all normal.
My left arm however, is fairly weak and my left leg is so weak I use a cane, or rollator at times. I stumble a lot and have frequent falls, and I've broken 6 bones in 5 years from the falls I've had!
My DH has to help me into the car and he also has to help me in and out of the shower.... and to get dressed every day.
My legs crawl with "ants" at times, and my feet burn like crazy. Sometimes my skin hurts so much I can't bear to wear clothes. I self catheterise intermittently, and my bowels have a mind of their own.
The only memory I have that seems to be working is the one on my computer, and I cry for no reason at all. I get so fatigued I fall asleep in the daytime ....often within a couple of hours of getting out of bed in the mornings.
These are just a few of the things that are going on with me right now, but my new neuro says that everything is normal.......all is well........come back in two years or so!
I'm beginning to think that: as beauty is to the eye...... normal is to the mind..... of the beholder!
