Probably more reason it was removed from the office (lack of TOUCH program) but you know secretaries, they don't want to get too chatty or else they don't get work done.

Health situation here is not good. I overheard secretary tell someone on the phone that the wait to see my neurologist in particular is at least 1 year. She said, "Well you could TRY calling others..." but didn't sound very hopeful for the person. Unreal.

Cherie, I am going back to work gradually. I think I'm going to enjoy it very much. I'm so sick of sitting around at home. Ugh. It'll be like, M, W, F 12pm to 4pm (first week), then M-F 12PM to 4PM (second week), then M,W,F 12pm to 5 pm (third week)... working my way up to 7.5 hour days. Takes 7 weeks? Or something... I didn't do the math ROFL

I guess it answers my question about MRIs here too. No additional MRI was suggested by dear neurologist, so it seems that unless I crash and burn in a major relapse, no repeat MRIs in my case.

Cherie, I honestly don't know. I'm going to talk to my GP (or family doctor if you may, lol!) and see about a pain specialist. I know of one in Moncton who may be a good man to see, and he has 5 star ratings across the board. Some of the pain MAY be related to TMJ, but I think that ATN (atypical trigeminal neuralgia) is to blame. Who knows though.
