Went to my Neuro Appointment yesterday - Vertigo, starting a flare, MRI, and need to find some type of Health Insurance Quick!
He feels Vertigo is pretty intense, he put me in a spin that nearly had me vomit on his shoes! He gave me Klonipin for that. The standard Neuro testing that he does at each visit and the questions he ask every time he is 100% sure I am heading to a flare - so he put me on Oral Steroids to try to stop the process. We went through my chart and for the last year and a half I have been on Steroids either oral or IV every 4 - 5 months. While reviewing my chart he feels that since last year at this time I have progressed greatly and he isn't happy with the progression. He wants to see me on some type of medication to slow this process or he feels within two years at this pace my body is going to be a mess. By the time I left my body was such a mess - I sat in the parking lot for 20 minutes and then drove to my friend David's and had a 2 hour nap. Just couldn't make it back home. I was pretty depressed sitting there having him tell me that I NEED to do something to slow this down and right now my only option is to get on med's but med's are VERY expensive with no health insurance. Sat there and basically got a lecture from my Neuro on the importance of health insurance and how I need to get some some how. Now, what to do?? Ok, my rant is over. Thanks for listening (or reading)
