Neurologist Visit
Well, I am home from my trip to the Neurologist. I am not quite happy, but I understand he is doing whats best,
He is setting up a couple of routine tests to make sure that I don't have anything major wrong with me. I will be going in for an MRI on my head, as well as a brain scan. He did say that my symptoms do relate to the onset of seizures, although that is a very rare case.
He would not prescribe me anymore meds though. This is the part that has me a little nervous. I have not been able to function at work without my Xanax for the last few weeks. The Doctor wants me off of the stuff entirely, as he does not like the side effects associated with it. I am unhappy, because it has been working wonderfully for me. Now I need to try and get through my days on sheer willpower alone.
Can't say I am not a little nervous about the results of the tests (once I finally get them done), but I know it is all for the best.
Wish me luck folks, cause I am about to have a very difficult time in my life to try and deal with.
