Hi all,
Sorry, it took me some time to get back with you. I saw my Neurologist, yesterday, who was "surprised" that I dropped by, instead of calling about the results of my latest MRI. He is the one, who first told me, don't bother coming in, just call and I will tell you the results, then in turn, had the receptionist set me to come back in a month.
Well, he told me, there was nothing new, "expected results" on my latest MRI, come back in 6 months.
Oh, I don't remember, if I mentioned this, but, I had been having intermittent pain, then constant pain, then back to intermittent, so since the PCP couldn't find anything, we chalked it up to "another MS symptom", as we did.
About week ago, I got my yearly "flu shot", then last Thursday, got some symptoms like the flu, but no fever, minor sore throat, dry mouth, dry cough, lasting all night, some days, etc.
Just as I began feeling it's grip loosen, I was hit by a possible/potential new "health hazard".
I noticed a "rash" this evening, and my Wife, checked it, and it looks like I have "shingles" of all things.
I had the chickenpox, when I was a kid, how was I to know it would come back to strike again one day.
Coincidentally, I have my annual "Well-Man's" visit, coming up Monday, with a different Doctor, besides my PCP (who prefers it, that way, new "set of eyes", etc.)
So, we shall see what he says ..
More to come
Take care and may God bless each and everyone of you,
Sincerely,
