Aloha!!! Glad to find you all again. I missed the weekly Limbo Check-in.

So, I've been having a seriously nasty flare for the past six weeks or so. I've had a lot of weakness in both my arms and my legs, along with extreme fatigue, increased muscle spasms and tremors, double vision, etc. I've been having to walk around with a cane for a couple of weeks now.

I found a new PCP who ran a whole battery of tests (have I mentioned how sick I am of medical tests?) Almost everything was normal, except that I have a slightly enlarged left heart ventrical, and something going on with my alpha proteins (but I forgot if they were high or low. Darn memory! )

Anyway, I finally got fed up and called my neurologist this morning and requested a new MRI. She's working me in for an appointment to see her tomorrow, so maybe I'll get one. My last MRIs were in August.

Oh, and by the way, I lost my job because of my health problems. I teach at a community college and my department voted to deny me tenure (they voted me off the island, is what they really did, just like a Survivor contestant! ) I do have another year to find something, and who knows what will happen in that length of time.

Hey, how about ya'll vote me off this blasted Limbo Island too? Much as I love ya'll, I'm ready to get some answers and head for shore.

Hugs to all,

Lisa
