Needle in a hay stack


This all started with a pain in the back of my head and later my right shoulder joined in.  While visiting the ER I was diagnosed with neuralgia and given a shot in the head and shoulder.  I continued to HURT and the tests to find the cause was off and running.
In the last year I have had 3 cat scans of my head, 3 lung x-rays, a pulmonary breathing test, sonogram on my left leg, EKG, MRI on my throat, x-ray of my back and hips, Blood transfusion, (I was very anemic) several blood draws (they put it in and draw it out) Colonoscopy, scope down my throat (I've forgotten the term), and yesterday one more cat scan on my larynx, abdomen and pelvis. This CAT scan scares me. I’m afraid I will be charged separately for each one!  They have found very little, just what time does to all of us.  This sounds like I’m dying, but I feel good, like a 70 year old. The only part of me left to check out is my right leg and two arms. I am on a new med that is really helping my tremors.  I can even write. I’m driving and going to my lady friend Candace basketball games. Red Hat’s is Saturday.  We are going to Grinder Haven for pastrami grinders and root beer floats. Life is good.

Thank you Grandma! I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope they find the culprit soon.
