    All went to my GP and he is referring me to another neurologist in my state of Arkansas. Been going to Missouri. Getting another EMG by the first neurologist in DEC but only on my right side. My GP stayed he thought that was wrong should be both sides. My left side is weakest not sure why they chose the right side. Getting lungs checked out in Dec also maybe we can get somewhere not holding much hope but maybe. Hope everyone is doing well and god bless you all for the good thoughts

    Thank you both so much. I told my wife last night I have all but given up hope of getting anywhere. I am usually an upbeat person but not so much these days. I read his notes on my visit and they are full of untrue things. He checked my reflexes but did so with my shoes on and me feet flat on the floor. But in notes he said I have normal reflexes. I have a severe cough he did not address but in notes he said he did. I have severe lower back pain ( something new) no mention in notes all he spoke of was my refusal to have surgery

    Seeing my GP Tuesday hopefully he has some guidance

    Again thanks for listening to me whine

    I discovered alpaca socks no pressure points and not tight and they breath no sweat. I love them

    I am afraid of mine. It goes to fast for me and I feel like I have to run to keep up. My son says it isn’t tall enough for me but it doesn’t have adjustments for height. So I have it parked by my desk😁

    It’s fall for me in Arkansas we get hot and humid in the summer so fall is a much needed break.

    Nice support from all of you I do thank you. My son bought me a jazzy carbon chair and I love it. I just hate to give in and use it. My legs are almost useless but I just keep trying to walk and hang on to things. Good thing about a cluttered house with to much furniture is you seldom hit the floor🤩I have read your article several actually. Like them a lot and they make sense I have even thought about physical therapy. I have turned it down twice now thinking I would overcome this thing myself. Don’t laugh at me.

    I mean I guess I thought this would progress slowly

    I guess this would progress slowly one bite at a time.

    Thanks for the encouragement from you all

    I also forgot to add he said I wasn’t progressing fast enough.
