Thumbs up Hey whirlwind!

Sounds like you've got a great neuro! That is so important! So many people on this site don't have one - or at least it seems that way, so the good ones are few and far between!

Good luck on the pred! I bet you will feel like a new woman!

Big hugs!
Erin

WW - What's your name for reals again? Sorry - I'm OLD (hee hee) and feeble minded and can't remember.

Anyway, it's sometimes difficult to figure out if you and your doc will hit it off with just one appointment - you're busy gauging each other. I really liked what you posted about your first appointment with this guy. He just seems so down to earth.

I'm glad you saw him, your CAT was normal, and you got the low down on your reaction to the Mestinon. As you develop trust in him, you will be able to calm yourself more easily, knowing that you have a good doc. That makes all the difference in the world!

Lot's 'o hugs!

Becky

Hi Nancy, I'm glad you're starting to feel comfortable with your neuro. Sometimes that's what is needed, just give him a chance, and get to know him, and how he is.
So happy for you!...
Love Lizzie
