Thumbs up Neuro appointment

Neuro came in asked how my IV treatment went, I told him I didn't have it, know one called, so he looked in my chart, the script he wrote was still there, he appoligised to me, went out & let them have it.
Then he came back in & we set up a plan, he is upset I have to wait for my rheumy app. till the 16th, he suggested another, then said he is going to hold off on the IV anyways till I get Blood work back from Rheumy, & he will then set up a muscle biopsy to be done,by a surgeon, then I will get the IV Methelpredisone Treatment. He said he is glad in a way I didn't have the treatment, because it would have altered my blood & biopsy results, so he wants to leave me flared up. The biopsy will show if my neuropathy & myopathy is connective tissue or a true muscle disease. I think I may be on the way to getting my overlap finally diagnosed, as the damage is really showing up now. in a lot of my testing.
