Alicia, so glad to hear the good news about the MRI results. I have been thinking about you a lot and wondering how you were. Hope all is going to get better real soon.
Best wishes,

I had the ambiltory EEG equipment put on yesterday morning. It wasn't too bad but I slept horrible last night. All the wires are piled on top of my head and a thicker wire runs down and connects to a recording machine in a fanny pack. I kept thinking I was going to choke myself. They covered all the wires with a thin light weight cap type thing but it kept falling off while I slept. I have been trying to think of something that could keep this cap on better but I don't know if it is suppose to be loose. I am already cranky and I have to wear this thing until next Monday. Sorry for complaining. I am tired. Thanks for listening,
Alicia

Oh, Alicia - that sounds like such a pain in the neck - literally! It doesnt' sound like you're complaining at all. It just sounds like you've got a stressful situation on your hands. When my first son was very little, as in a day or so old, he had to be hooked up to so many wires and electrodes and IVs and all sorts of stuff. It really looked uncomfortable, to say the least. And while I haven't seen what you have, I've seen the same types of things. I'm so glad that it's only until Monday! My peaceful and comfortable thoughts are with you... "Complain" any time!
XOXO, Libbie

Alicia,
I'm so sorry. I hadn't seen your earlier posts. Saying a prayer for you to get this test done comfortably and then on to treatment. Thinking about you.

Alicia,
You are in my prayers, it sounds like everything is coming out well and I am glad for that. I hope you are sleeping better hooked up to all those wires. I am not a happy camper with lack of sleep either.

Hey Alicia! I guess from this date you are no longer "wired" and hopefully you will have some results. Have you ever been checked for restless leg syndrome? My MIL went through 2 years of seriously not getting enough sleep and her symptoms sounded surprisingly similar to yours. She didn't have a seizure(maybe...), but we did have an episode where she was on the floor and didn't know how she got there and couldn't get up. Lack of sleep does weird things to your whole body. Your tingly leg pain might be part of that too. Hope the docs can figure it out for you and the worst part of the treatment was all this waiting. Take good care of yourself and let us know how you are. You are in my prayers.
with a happy heart |

Thank you so much for asking how I am doing.
I have an appointment this afternoon @ 4:00 to get the results of the ambiltory EEG. I am a little nervous. I went to my regular DR. a few weeks ago and he sent me to Physical Therapy for my legs. They are trying to see what is causing the tingling. They are trying to rule out M.S.(They don't think it is now that I have been going), restless leg syndrome, Neropathy or it might be a disc in my back causing the leg issues. I follow up with the Regular DR. next week to see how the PT went. I will let you all know more later and Thank you so much for asking.

Well I have good news. The ambiltory EEG came back normal. They found one small blip but the dr said it is nothing to worry about. I am cleared to drive again.YEAH!!! Even thought I was loving working from home. He upped my dosage of my medication for my headaches and he wants to see me back if things don't get better.Otherwise I will see him in 3 months or if my regular Dr thinks I need more test to rule out M.S.
So thank you for all your prayers and I will let you know what my Regular Dr has to say next week.

Good news Alicia, we'll keep those prayers coming for you to finally be over this gruelling time. Let's hope there is nothing to "find" and you are given a clean bill of health. Be well and know that I am thinking about you. ( I was in Warwick over the weekend, is that anywhere near you?)Hugs...

Yes warwick is near where I live but Rhode Island is so small anything is close. Just kidding, the native Rhode Islanders never travel more that 15 minutes anywhere even though it only takes an hour to go through the whole state.Warwaikc is a couple of towns over from where I live, not far at all. I hope you had a good time visiting the ocean state.Thank you for all the prayers, Hugs,
Alicia

I went to the DR. today for the follow up appointment. I have a herniated disk in my lower back causing the numbness and pain. Physical therapy will help it. I know I shouldn't be happy to have that but I am so relieved it is not something more serious.My headaches are starting to get under control with the medicine the Dr. gave me. I have even lost 13 pounds.I just wanted to thank you all for all your prayers and postive thinking.
HUGS,
Alicia

Alicia, I'm so glad the problem isn't "more serious", but you do have my sympathy for that disk--it can be mighty painful. I wish they knew what's causing your headaches, but glad the medication helps. I'm praying for you.
