Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 No, I live in Sacramento. We probably have those kinds of places here too, and I guess I'm wondering what the places would be called--not so much the name of the place, though that would work too probably, but what kind of place.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 I am so trying to not get fed up and take whatever. I will have problems with my right arm for the rest of my life and I deserve a nice tooth whitening for that (that tongue is back into that cheek). I have recently been through a deposition that was my own personal living hell and this was a nice lawyer and right now they are working out a deposition with my Orthopedist. So sit and wait. And you should have been driving. You probably could have dodged the truck better. Do you know that when Muni busses get in accidents the claims person goes out to the accident site with a check book and they write checks right then and their to those that arne't too hurt. Buying good press I guess. > > > > > > >hello gang, > > > > > > > > > > > > > >Today i got on the scale and hit the 100 mark. > > > > > > > > > > > > > >I just had to share this with you all. > > > > > > > > > > > > > >I weigh exactly 176 and not the 276 I weighed in day of my > > > > > > >orientation.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 , I'm due for my first spinal tap, evoked potential and emg's in the next few weeks. They think it's MS, neurosarc or whatever. My neuro isnt all that familiat with sarc but seems very capable. Much better than the last one!! IIm nervous about all the tests but know I have to find some answers as I had more neuropathy than I knew about. Always fun to find out!!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Bonnie, You have probably heard horror stories about the spinal tap, but they are not all true. I have had three and the worst I have had is a very bad headache. Be sure to lay flat...don't do anything after they send you home but rest. As far as the evoked potentials they are just very boring. I have been told for a time that I had MS then I went to s Hopkins and possilby it is NS but no one really knows for sure. I am headed to Duke next week to see a Doctor Skeen who treats people like me that no one can make a decision on. Good luck with your tests.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Bonnie Good luck on your spinal & the tests. It's much better to get a name to this yuck. They thought mine might be ms at first too but my neuro is a specialist in ms & he said I didn't have the black spots on my mri like ms just the white inflammation. I had hydrocephaelus in 97 & had a shunt put in my brain. The 4th ventricle started to clog a few years later & I developed the bee sting feelings & some others so I was on the hunt again for a diagnosis. It's been not quite a year since I heard that strange word " neurosarcoidosis " & almost as long to learn how to spell & pronounce it. LOL You're in my prayers. grannylunatic@... __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Terri, you'll have to refresh my memory. Which article are you needing? I love watching House, but I'm constantly complaining about something unrealistic, especially cpr. I've never seen even half-way realistic cpr on TV. I know that they can't really do compressions on a live person, but surely they can slip a dummy in for that shot, or at least do more than 3 or 4 compressions, then give up! My family members have to keep reminding me that it's only a tv show. Ramblin' Rose Moderator Reply-To: Neurosarcoidosis To: Neurosarcoidosis Subject: Re: to Date: Wed, 01 Feb 2006 14:56:19 -0000 Rose, Where did you read the article? I would like to read it. I am sick and tired of being shuffled from doctor to doctor. I am spending so much money on all of this crap that I could scream! I just don't even know what to do anymore. As far as the LP, so many people think it is such a painful procedure and I just have not had that experience. The headache is horrific if you get it though. If you have ever watched the episode of House where they do the LP it is show as an excrutiating procedure; that has just not been my experience. Thanks for the info.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 My dr says my numbers are good but she never explains what they should be or anything. I believe I put a LINK in the LINKS for a site that explains what the abbreviations mean when it comes to blood tests--or you'll find it in the ARCHIVES. Site addresses are at the bottom of this and every email-- scroll down and you can go to LINKS or ARCHIVES. Tracie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Oh, Terri, Terri, I am so sorry. That was one of my stupid jokes. But it's a sorry state of affairs in the medical world that you would think it might be true. (It might be true, but not that I know of.) Please, give me 10 lashes with a wet umbilical cord, the ultimate punishment for a midwife. I will try to put a little disclaimer on my jokes from now on. I feel like such a bozo, causing you to worry like that. Honestly, I don't know anything about Dr. Skeen. Will you forgive me? Rose, shuffling her feet & hanging her head.
