hey southy.I saw the NHS neuro and did the walk, lol he was not interested <<<spelling???  at all..didnt ask me to close eyes just had to walk up and down the floor, then he shook my legs and asked me how my family was, and if anyone was ill.....made me wanna slap him lol. The only boo boo i made was when i went in and he says"good morning my name is whatever" to which i replied "good morning Hunny"....I meant to say good morning doctor but it didnt come out that way...hell i wanted to laugh
but i would have p****d myself and got locked away in the looney bin.
I dont think we got on to well!!!!!!

Hi, here in the states a "Southy" is someone from the south of Boston.

You would do both of those with the eyes open.  Most of us would fall on our tushies if we had to toe walk with our eyes shut.  But, the neurologist will usually tell you when to close your eyes and when to keep them open.  Mine (even the bad one) always did.

Nothing here sounds like an idiot.  You don't have to read everything before you ask a question.  That is definitely not the purpose of the Health Pages.  But, I hope you enjoyed them!
