Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Kate, you could not be boring if you tried; thank you for taking the time and making the effort to tell us all this.Love to you and to your family,nTo: MSersLife Sent: Wed, March 30, 2011 6:09:28 AMSubject: neuro visit Hi,I was so NOT looking forward to my neuro visit yesterday. Last March, he busted my chops about my weight; I haven't really lost much since then, so I was ready for him to bring it up again...he didn't, thank goodness.I told him about falling 6 times in the last few months, and he wrote a script for me for Gait and Balance PT. He was going to give my Amprya, but I declined; I don't think my balance and walking is THAT bad to need a med for it, so I'm going to try the PT first. I also mentioned my memory issues--that everyone is getting really mad at me with my forgetfulness and not recalling much of anything! He gave me an all-natural sample of CerefolinNAC--I'm going to do research on it before I start taking it. It has something to do with folate. He offered Aricept, but I don't think I need that. I asked him if there were 'markers' for Alzheimers in bloodwork. He said that that is used diagnostically, not as a predictor. So, basically, he refused to check my blood for that. Since I had an MRI and bloodwork last year, he's waiting to do either til next March. All in all a pretty good visit.Just wanted to update (and not bore!) ya'all.Love to all of you,Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Yup, they can't wait. I'm leaving the house about 10:30 for a half-hour drive down to the place to get her. I have a very small crate to put her in. If she doesn't fit (it's a cat crate, really), I'll have to plop her on my lap and hope I can safely navigate home. I DO think she'll fit in the crate, as she is smaller than the cats!The kids can't wait to get home from school. Neither of them WANTED to go to school today! lol.love,KateTo: MSersLife Sent: Wed, March 30, 2011 7:31:30 PMSubject: Re: neuro visit/reply Puppy puppy!!!   ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -- neuro visit Hi,I was so NOT looking forward to my neuro visit yesterday.
