Wiz - PeopleSoft is what Darden Restaurants use for their employee portal. My DH is a manager at Olive Garden, so I am familiar with navigating it with him for benefits, etc. I don't think you would have any problems learning about it. Good luck with your search.
Kelly - I want to rub that cat's belly! Better yet, curl up in the sun with him. It's so freaking cold in my office that my nose and hands are cold. I don't like hot, but I'm not a fan of cold either.
Everyone else with classes, bees, eye problems, kids, etc. ((((hugs)))) I already lost track of it all.
As for me, I spent a lovely morning at the neuro-opth office. Bottom line is that she has changed her mind about putting prisms on glasses for me. She thinks my convergence is better than last time. She thinks that more of my problems with reading / computer is the eye movement problems (nystagmus & dysmetria). So, I just have to live with it and play with the doses of Baclofen and Klonipin to dampen it down.
You know what? I'm really sick of the crap. I'm tired of being an unusual / interesting case. I have a neuro who will tell me he isn't really sure what's going on, it acts like MS, but it is atypical but definitely is a demyelinating disease. So we treat sx and I can have IVSM when I need it. The neuro-opth seemed pretty convinced last year that this was MS, but then today seemed like she wasn't sure anymore - probably because my OCT and visual fields are still good.
They confuse me and I get tired. What if we are missing something somewhere? It feels like we are stuck in a rut. I'm on a merry go round that I can't get off - we just keep doing the same things over and over with the same results. Honestly, if I could live without the drugs, I would stop seeing doctors. So many things have been suggested and ruled out and the only thing they seem to look at now is MS, but I'm atypical. It feels like they ran out of ideas.
I know I shouldn't complain because I have a good neuro who is willing to treat me and refer me to other specialists to help me. He didn't kick me to the curb. He flat out tells me to just tell people it's MS because that is the closest fit, but sometimes that just doesn't feel like enough.
I guess I just have lingering thoughts about wanting a firm answer. I don't care if it is MS or something else, just so long as we get it right. What if I have something more treatable? I know the neuro doesn't think I do, but that nags at me.
I guess that is my little rant today. I'm just tired of the doctor merry go round.
