You all got me to thinking. I found some pictures of me that were taken before I got on mestinon. I look a lot better. I get frustrated with all of this stuff and I guess that I do want to deny it. At least this neurologist is not going to kill me with medications. He actually talked me into ditching a bunch of psychoactive drugs that I was on for the craziness that I don't have.

Here is a typical doctor's advice from my perspective.

1. You're tired? Here, take this antidepressant.
2. Out of breath? Must be panic attack. How about some benzos?
3. Your speech is slurred? You must be an alcoholic.
4. Your eyes look funny? Let's run $10,000 dollars worth of tests.
