Thank you. Losing Sydney was like losing a child to me. My DH & I only have 1 son, and he moved to S. IL, and married a young lady he met there, while he was in college & working a "temp" job. He met her at the job.

His wife is very threatened by his relationship with me, therefore, we rarely ever hear from him. (Her mother had her at age 15, left her with her Grandma, and was, and still is a drug addict. she has never met her father. so, she doesn't seem to understand the dynamics of a family relationship. I've gone oever-board being good to her, to no avail. My younger sister thinks she feels insecure around me, but my goodness, I'm not a snob!) She promised him, and myself, that if they got married, she would move up here by us. They've been married 9 years, and they have twin 4 yr. old boys and a 9 month old baby girl, and we are the only grandparents, and yet, the only times we have seen them is the few trips I have been able to make.

Thank you for hoping things go well for Kia. I couldn't bear to lose both my girls in one year. I went into such a deep depression when I lost Sydney, and I had to struggle to get through it.)

Yes, I can easily get the films from my brain MRI.

I'm wondering if I should write the new Neuro a letter, explain my symptoms, and tell her I left a message with her appt. desk, and ask her if my symptoms are something she understands?

For example, the issue with my bowel is not typical constipation where stool is hard & dry. It's normal stool, that just won't move along the lower part of the intestinal tract, and no sensory feeling in the internal **** sphincter.
