update

Just got done at my appointment with my neurologist and a few have asked, so thought I'd do a quick post {early lunch Nellie! :)}.

I started keeping track of anything that's been going on with me that may be considered a 'symptom' ... so went through that list with her.

A couple of things have been, my legs giving out on me, night sweats {yuck!}, and then the hand tremors {guys, I only drink a half cup of coffee in the morning, I failed to mention that in my last post}. I've got an appointment with an MS specialist at Froedtert on Monday, and he'll really be the one to tell me more.

Dr. Purath {my neurologist} said he's spent two years researching MS ... so if he ends up saying I don't have it, then we can put it to bed. Needless to say, I'm pretty anxious for that appointment.

Overall, I'm really not sure what to make of my appointment today. I did the whole "close your eyes and touch your nose with your index finger test." Right finger ... landed on my nose. Left finger ... landed on my cheek. I started crying.

My motor skills aren't normal on my left side and I still have decreased sensation on my left side.

Anyway, my doctor's been an absolute blessing to me and I'm thankful she's on my side. She said the specialist will order a variety of tests, one most likely being a spinal tap. I'm not sure I even want to know what that involves?

I'm feeling a little nervous about all of this. But I'm still not freaking out. I have given it to Him and will continue to do so ... I know he has a plan for me, and I rest trusting in that fact.
