Default Hi Everyone,

I am a hallway person too. At least you just bounce from wall to wall and there's nothing in there you can get hurt on.

I almost fell twice last week into the bathtub. I have fell so many times I ended up with arm and hand problems.

The new balance shoes is not helping too much but hopefully as I wear them more they will.

I got a call from the hospital yesterday. They are wanting me to see my Neurologist and they also want me to go through the sleep apnea test again.


My story is too long so I'm not going to go into it but I also have a Vegal Nerve Stimulator that was put in in April for depression. We turned it up awhile back and it caused breathiing problems for me and made my sleep apnea worse. We have turned it back down but I am still having the problems so I am thinking eventually we will have to turn it off completely.

The lady that called me wants me to see the Neurolgist to determine what is causing the twitching and jerking I am having. I am currently seeing my Immunologist, I just postponed a Cardiolgist apt. until after my sister leaves next week, I see my PCP of 17 years often and I still have to see my hand surgeon so I just am having trouble wanting to see any more Drs. My hand surgeon, Orthopedic, and Neurologist are all in the same building but they won't let me see all 3 of them on the same day. It's in Co. Springs so it's about 35 miles from where I live.

I have cuts and bruises on me where I have walked into everything in the house.

I will make an appt. with my Neurologist in a couple of weeks. I am anxious to see him and see what is going on with me.

As I told Sally, I lost my husband of almost 35 years in Nov. of last year and it just doesn't seem to get any easier.

Ada

My heart breaks for you. Loss of your dear husband and all these health issues must seem and impossible burden. I wish words could make it better.

I just want you to know we are here and are really good listeners. I've found just voiceing concerns eases the mind a teeney bit. Post as often as you need.

Just keep pushing at those docs. The squeeky wheel and all that. There is truth to that. Big hugs of kindness and concern.
