20. Not yet...The original meds worked until last week.

Feb 2013

Was traveling for work. 2nd day, they started up again. I go back to primary doc tomorrow a.m. to get the referral to the neurologist. I had a few weeks of relief and it was heaven. I guess now we will figure out what the long term approach is after the neuro checks me out.

I hope he finds that I really have a brain if they do a scan of some sort. My mind has been seriously slugglish since these things have started back up!

Thanks for checking on me. I'm hopeful I can get to see the neuro in the next few weeks - am out of town AGAIN next week for work, so will do my best to get an appt for the week after.
