Default Neuro Called - Update

He said the MRI showed no change on my Pineal & Pititary Cysts which is good and no lesions. With my sx over the weekend he has ordered a round of steroids that he wants me to start today and a LP on Friday morning.

Ok, I thought I was nervous before I am scared to death right now....

You'll be okay, Char, no use in fretting all week. Many have gone this road and we're all still here to tell about it. You'll do fine! Just listen to your instructions and it will be over before you know it.

Nappy wants to know if you've had a nappy today.

It can be done.

Please try to stay mellow until you can get the heck out of there and go get horizontal. Getting enough rest can make a huge difference for you. I sure hope this lets up soon, it's hard.

dont be scared, sounds like the steroids are for helping with new sx and the lp to double check the outcome of your mri's, you'll be ok, just take it easy, get some rest and dont over do it

This is what we do, Char, when you've had the chance you've been here for others and right now, you need to do a little leaning. We're here for you, just be a little careful when leaning, some of us might tip right out from under you.

Sounds like a good plan to get started on the 'roids, fill up your belly and fill in the couch.

I'm sorry you're going through this, Char. I know how hard it is to have all these sx and still be expected to function as normal on a daily basis. Everyone has given good advice - rest as much as you can - let others carry the load for a while and take care of YOU.
