| so scared...... help me!!!!
Hello, I have not posted here for awhile but visit quite often,
I have been running back and forth to doc for awhile, trying to find out what is wrong with me.Don't even know if I should be posting in LUPUS, but Angelica knew alot about APS.
BRIEF HISTORY:
fatigue,sore joints, muscles,SOB, tremors in hands,numbness in some extremities,some loss of bladder control, poor memory & concentration,chest pain(recently diagnosed prolasped valve),blurred vision that comes & goes,eyes twitching,occasional swollen glands,
pneumonia,painful periods with lots of large clots(SORRY), oh yeah and FATIGUE.
Doc has done blood tests, the only problem was ESR 28
echocadigram,holter monitor, lupus bld work came back negative
made MRI appt, for mid March to rule out MS.She also put me on effexxor as she worries I m depressed , and detrol for my bladder.
Now, what is freaking me out is she sent me for a CT scan and found
a "PROMENT BULGE".
So now she is sending me to a neurologist for a possible cerebral angiogram!!!!!!!!
"BULGE" what does this mean????
She says" its not tumor its a bulge,possible clot or anyereseum"
Well, the rest of the appt. is a blur, blah blah blah and then sent me home to await for a appt with the neuro.
Am I suppose to act normal, go to work(physical demanding job)
I have phoned back and talked with the receptionist to ask doc before she goes for her vacation, because I have not slept and I'm freacking out.
thanks for all your support
