I've received the results of my latest round of blood tests. Almost everything was normal except for 2 enzymes (I think) that were elevated. They usually indicate a breakdown in the muscles like after a hard workout. Sadly, I had NOT just done a big workout prior to the blood tests.
The doctor has basically ruled out a minor stroke because that would have only affected one side or the other. I already figured that much. So the doctor is building on the idea of MS or I Don't Know as the diagnosis.
She is referring me to a neurologist and letting him/her send me for an MRI. She thinks that I'll get a higher priority if I'm referred for the MRI by a neurologist. I'll believe THAT when I see it. LOL
Until then, I am waiting, waiting, and waiting some more. I'm just continuing to do what needs to be done and hoping for the best.

Welcome home! I am sorry to hear about this. I hope that you will get some answers soon.
My friend Amber is going through the same sort of limbo, and maybe ms too. She is on my blog roll "Amber's Blog" maybe you should go say hi.
Take care!
Hi Christine. Hmmmm not fun waiting for diagnosis and test results. Keep us posted on this okay?
Hey Christine - this is the first time I am checking in on your blog. I am going to have to go back and read a bit about what is going on in your life.
I am so sorry that you are having to deal with any health issues - because I feel your pain :( I hope that once you see the Neuro they will send you ASAP for the MRI. I was actually surprised at how quickly I got in. (Others thought one and a half months was ridiculous...not me!)
Anyway, hang in there!!!
