Well here I go thru this long process I have been hearing about! I had a seizure on Thur. and in Shands ER on Mon morning. So I made it into the system prior to my appt I had set for 5/29, My husband brought my records I had prepared with us so we had it all there for them, they started with MRIs and CR scan, blood work also. We of course waited and then a neuro came in and asked alot of questions and did a did a neuro testing on me and again we waited--then they cane back and told me they were going to admit me for further testing--another MRI and spinal tap, blood work , ekg,eeg and visual testing and optical check. The only good news is I don't have optical neurosis, but at the same time I have not defintely bee dx with MS--he said he could send me home with copaxane, but once started would never come off it-so is going to treat me in clinic by MRIs every 3 months for now!

So after 4 days of being stuck scanned and probed I came home with

an appt with neuro and prescription for High Chlest meds--they tell me they know I have chronic pain and/or headaches but they don't treat that! I have never been so hurt scared angry and any other name you can call it. They won't do anything about my symptons but did take away my driving --which in all honesty is like taking a birds wings-I feel stranded, like burden on my friends and husband! I can feel my depression coming on stronger and that scares me also(already had one major breakdown). If anyone can suggest anyway for me to deal with this I am opened to all suggestions.

Thanks for being here for me

lov to all
