Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Hi Tawny: Well, at least they are getting some answers for you. Sorry about the disc herniations - what are they planning to do about them, if anything? The tumors sound so scary, but I am very happy to hear that they are not in your brain! There are some very nice wigs out nowadays - maybe you can trying being a blonde, brunette, and redhead, each one a different day! Where is your doctor from? I am pretty good with accents, with my husband being from Iran, and when I worked in a hospital transcribing we had doctors from everywhere! I hope that you are able to find out what is bothering your leg, maybe that next MRI of your lower back will give some clues to that one. Terrible that you have to go back again and again, but you're right, that's the way it goes. Good luck with the pain doctor - take care - Kathe in CA --- tdianaok <tdianaok@...> wrote: > Hey family, > > I haven't been feeling well, but wanted to let you > know how my visit > went Friday.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Hi Kathe, They are doing one problem at a time. They are taking care of the tumors first. I'm kind of scared, but if it will make me feel better, I'm ready. My doctor is from Greece. I love accents, and I'm usually good at them too. I was married to a man from Pakistan, and spent time overseas, but I can't understand much. He talks VERY fast,lol But, I love to hear him:) I hope they do find out what's going on with my leg, I would hate to lose it. Hugs, Tawny > > > Hey family, > > > > I haven't been feeling well, but wanted to let you > > know how my visit > > went Friday. I visited with the neurologist about > > the results of my > > MRI's.
