Looking for Courage

[wadeheather]

I have an appt in two hours to talk to the doc about the restless leg/ active sleeping and insomnia.  I think that I want to ask her to have another MRI done. My last one was in 08/07 and was only looking for the reason behind the headaches, but the neurologist had suspected MS. That MRI was clean. The rest of my symptoms started just last fall and I'm at my wits end with them. I'm not sure if I'm afraid of it being normal?

Thanks for your great thoughts.  The appointment didn't go much differently than planned. She was going to give me something other than ambien, but as she reviewed the notes from the last (loser) neuro I saw she saw in his notes that I should try Nortryptaline (I'm sure I spelled that wrong, sorry). He never gave me anything, just told me to suck it up. So, since Nortryptaline should help with sleeping, but does not mix well with the sleep med she was going to give me, she gave me that. In a month if it's not working she wants me to see a different neurologist.

I mentioned having another MRI. She said that the neurologist may order another one, but she doubts it.  Am I missing something here???

Anyway, that's the scoop.  Still a loonatic limbo-lander.
