Guest guest Posted February 11, 2002 Report Share Posted February 11, 2002 Thanks everyone for those quick answers! We've been about three years getting to the right diagnosis. Alzheimers was what they called his " condition " before any of the parkinson symptoms showed up, and that was by default, since no other eplanation could be found for his symptoms. I work 11-7 tomorrow and it seems the docs come in early, so I'm gonna be there with coffee and doughnuts about 6:30! I forgot to mention that my poor husband has had something stuck in every opening in his body. Every organ in his torso has had a picture taken of it. His brain has had MRI's and his back MRI's. He is having the same kind of hospital stay as the last one in December, and the one before that, and the one before that, and the one before that. He just gets passed off from one doctor to the other until they just release him to go home. They've drained enough blood to fill a small child and still, nothing....except the elevated liver enzymes. This pain is not new, just getting increasingly worse until it started down his arms and he got sick to his stomach this time. This was the worst. Maybe I'll find out something tomorrow, but you know, I'm gettin' pretty jaded about the whole process. I'd just keep him home away from all the poking and prodding and never go to the doctor again, except that he feels so sick, and hurts all the time. hugs Betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
