[kicker]

My neurologist has actually gotten nicer as he realizes there's not a dang thing he can do for me and my PPMS. We no longer play the get a MRI game, both asking "why." Last time I saw him he said see you in a year unless you need me. We no longer do the every 6 months game. He never takes longer than 12 hours to answer my e-mails, is open to providing me with WC prescription, pain medications, letters for house delivery of mail (My mailbox is 800 feet away down a hilly drive.) He does not say it, but we both know there is nothing he can do but treat problems if they arise. Rebif, Novantrone, generic/compounded fampridine have been tried with no success. Last time I saw him I said it must get hard treating MS people (he is a MS Specialist Neurologist), no one gets better". He cough/laughed and didn't say anything. No PT for me, My job is to use my time well NOW.
