Just got home a few minuts ago.... I had to wait 1/2 hour - I have never had to do, he is usually right on time. Oh well!

it was actually good cause I got cold.... and those of you who know me know that cold is not good for me. The AC was freezing and by the time I got to see him my right side was a mess! He laughed and did his neuro exam before we talked. He could feel the spasms in my right arm for they were so intense at the time. He then went and got me a blanket to warm up with. After we talked and I warmed up he then felt the same spot on my arm and the spasms had calmed down.

Now, remember me telling you I lost my health insurance? Well, today he wants to talk about putting me on medication!!! I then explained to him I don't have health insurance but it should all be in place by Sept 1st. He uses Avonex (is that how you spell it??) But, said we will talk about other options when I get the health insurance.

Thanks Everyone!

Take care and I think I'd like your Neuro... Sounds very caring.

Glad your appt. went well Char. I know that isn't news anybody wants to hear, but it takes away some of the unknowns I suppose. Anyway, I hope your insurance will be in place soon and you can start treatment.

Char
Glad you have a good doc and you now are one of us officially.

We always knew you were.

This will give you time to get the medication situation lined up and ready to go next month.

Hope you are feeling better then at the doc office.
