Crazy Just a little update....

Hi all!

Just thought I'd take a few to update... I've been reading... just not talking much.

I went to the Movement Specialist last week... she was very nice and did a complete check of all of my joints an associated muscles.

She told me that at this time I have Dystonia ( any of various conditions (as Parkinson's disease and torticollis) characterized by abnormalities of movement and muscle tone ) as associated with RSD. I even have it in my voice/vocal cords.

She is sending me to Physical Therapy. I start tomorrow.

I also went to my Pdoc... she gave me a medicine to help me sleep... I haven't taken it yet as 1...I have been sick with a stomach bug--never take a sleeping aid when you have a stomach bug--the two don't mix. and 2...I've been dog sitting and she wakes me at 7:30 on the dot and I don't fall asleep until after 4 or 5.

There are other things that P and Tdoc's are very concerned with but I can't write about those here... I go back to Tdoc on the 31st and Pdoc on the 8th.

Hugs to all...

Abbie

thanks for the update. i hope the stomach bug goes away soon so you can take the sleep aid. and i hope PT helps you. you are always in my thoughts.

dog-sitting sounds like a good idea... in theory. but 2 hours sleep... i the rewards outweigh the difficulties.
