Thinking caps on

I watched an interesting tv show last night. One Strange Rock with Will Smith. He said in our brains there were nearly as many neutrons as there are stars in the Milky way. No wonder we have such a wide variety of strange symptoms. There are only 7 billionish human beings on this rock. Do not believe me go look up the numbers for yourself. That any of us have any symptom like any body else is amazing. To expect anybody to have all, let alone any answers for "YOU" is expecting a lot. Therefore my sister\brother I recommend keeping notes and speaking your condition clearly whenever "YOU" visit a medical professional. They can not help "YOU" if they do not have as much information as possible. If it takes more than ten minutes ay "YOU" need more time, make your doctors help "YOU" to your satisfaction. If "YOU" do not make a fuss why would anybody else go the extra mile to help "YOU"? Remember that "YOU" are paying them.

And you could drive them crazy with too much detail as I used to do? Like the spread sheets of data, with embedded charts and graphs.... In this day of computers....an engineer can go? Now I just take my neuro's symptoms list, and check the few I DON'T HAVE!

I gave my neurologist a great big list once! He loved it! But said they are not from MS. It's hard to know sometimes which are because of MS or migraine or from levels of Synthroid medication etc.

IT'S all a balancing act! Woohoo

So much FUN living this way. No wonder I'm cookoo!
