appointment tomorrow

for a week, I progressively felt worse until I was at the point where I could barely walk at all. I had pressure and tightness in my arms/legs/chest, increased fatigue and leg weakness that was terrible.

since yesterday, my walking has gotten better. although I am still having the tightness (coming and going)

last night, I was not able to lift my left leg straight up while sitting, but I can lift it when I walk.

I cannot get in to see my neuro, so I made an appt to see my PCP last Thursday...my appt is tomorrow.

I am starting to think that I don't need to go any more since my walking is improving.  

I am wondering really what a PCP will do anyway.

Thanks.

And another one voting for documentation! Even though the sx have abated, it's best to keep your docs informed as things develop. They may actualy be able to spot a pattern at some point.

I hope it goes well....Please let us know how you get on tomorrow (today?).

Hello,

I agree with binx! Tell him exactly what's going on.

hi mamij,

i think you should go and tell your PCP exactly what you wrote in your first paragraph just so it's documented somewhere.

just my $.02.

best wishes,
binx
