Hey yall!!!!!!!!!

[Rutey]

Hey Yall, Hope everyones doing ok, Ive been staying busy and trying to get through these holidays.
I had an appt with a neurologist for my Emg's. She basically told me that if if my "shaky legs and weakness from the knees down" was coming from my neck (cervical area) that it WOULDNT show nerve damage in the legs. It would however if it was coming from lumbar region.She said the neurosurgeon was probably trying to rule out other things. WELL, I now have SEVERE carpal tunnel in my left and mild to moderate in my right arm. HAHAHA, It seems everytime I go to the doctor they find something else wrong with me. I still dont have answers for my leg problems. I have followup appts with 2 neurosurgeons this week. Both say I need surgery, but one says I need a C-3-4-5-6-7 and T-1 surgery. Im determined to get through Chistmas and see what happens. HOW IS EVERYONE?  I did the BLACK FRIDAY shopping thing, thats another story. LOL!

Glad to see you popping in. As doni says it sure sounds like you have been busy. Do take some time out to rest though. You can only push yourself so far you know.

I second the good luck in your appointments and let us know how it goes.
