Today I realized just how blessed I am to have the medical staff I do.
I was sitting here in tears in immesnse pain this morning before the physical therapist got here, she wanted me to go to the ER, I am so not interested in that right now though, especially since I have so much going on with doctors this next week and perhaps even another appointment on top of that.
My neurologist called me this afternoon because he had just gotten the report from my Pulmonologist about my sleep study, he wanted to make sure that I was following up with that. I nearly cried because he actually CALLED me, he cared enough to call.
Then he mentioned that Dr. Pieper had also sent the report to him and wanted to see me in two weeks (this was news to me) so tomorrow when I am at the Opthamologist office I will be stopping by to see what I need to do about that appointment and I have to talk to his nurse anyhow because she is who has to fill out my paperwork for the Lyrica, that is one EXPENSIVE medicine.
I am just so happy that he cared enough to call and check on me, he didn't have to since I actually have an appointment with him next Friday. God has REALLY really Blessed me this time around.

I had my appointment yesterday morning, I know nothing more than I did before I went in.
I was a bit nervous, every time you get a new doctor you are putting your trust in someone you do not know and I have had quite a variety of mixed responses from new docs. This time I was quite amazed and impressed.
He listened well, answered and asked lots of questions, seemed to genuinely care about what was going on and understand that this is more of a preventative before its too late rather than anything else.
He is sending me for some tests, an EEG, no clue why, but I am not going to stress over it as its such an easy thing and if its not the PTC than it may help figure out what is causing them.
He is also doing Visual Evoked Potentials, this should be interesting as I have never had that done before, he said its basically like my visual fields that I had had before except its how the brain registers it rather than anything else. I also get to see an Opthamologist on Thursday. Then I follow up again on the 26th of November.
