OUT OF LIMBO LAND

WHAT AN EXCITING DAY YESTERDAY WAS.... I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH PREUDOTUMOR CEREBRI A CONDITION IN THE BRAIN WHERE THE SPINAL FLUID HANGS OUT AND IS HIGHER THAN NORMAL WHICH IN RETURN CAUSES OPTIC NEURITIS AND CAN CAUSE SOME OF THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS MS. WHAT A BIG BREATHE I TOOK WHEN DR. BAHTI, A OPTIC NEUROLOGIST AT DUKE EYE CENTER TOLD ME I DID NOT HAVE MS. HE HAS TOLD ME FROM DAY ONE THAT HE WOULD NOT GUESS AT A DIAGNOSIS AND THAT UNTIL HE WAS 100% SURE HE WOULD KEEP HIS OPINIONS TO HIMSELF.. HE IS THE BEST AND I THINK I WILL KEEP HIM AS LONG AS HE WILL LET ME. ALTHOUGH ONE OF THE MAIN SYMPTOMS IS HEADACHES WHICH I HAVE NEVER HAD.... I AM GOING TO FOLLOW HIS RECOMMENDATIONS AND SEE IF THAT HELPS RELIEVE ANY OF MY OTHER SYMPTOMS SUCH AS LEG PAIN, HIP PAIN, INTOLERANCE TO HOT AND COLD, TINGLIING IN MY ARMS AND EVEN WEAKNESS ON MY RIGHT SIDE. I MUST KEEP MY FAITH AND ONE OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS WERE TO DECREASE MY WEIGHT AND PLEASE KEEP ME IN PRAYERS AS I VENTURE DOWN THIS PATH OF RECOVERY I HOPE!! YOU ALL HAVE BEEN SO GRATEFUL AND HELPFUL TO ME AND I KNOW GOD IS WATCHING OVER EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU..I WILL STAY WITH THIS FORUM AS LONG AS YOU ALL WILL LET ME... BUT FOR NOW GOD BLESS!!! AND I WILL WISH YOU ALL DIAGNOSIS AND GOOD WILL. IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE MANY WHO ARE WAITING FOR A DIAGNOSIS  IF IT BE MS OR SOMETHING ELSE JUST REMEMBER THERE IS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL. SOMETIMES IT MIGHT NOT BE WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR BUT OVER ALL WE HAVE TO HEAR BECAUSE GOD'S WILL IS THE ONLY WILL THAT WILL LEAD US THROUGH IT. ROUGH TIMES ARE SOMETIMES EASIER THAN WE LET THEM BE... DONT TRY SO HARD PUT EVERYTHING IN GOD'S HANDS AND LET HIM LEAD YOU THROUGH. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU AND NEVER LOSE YOUR FAITH....
