Hi everyone,

Saw my GP yesterday and he has referred me back to see the Neuro. I have escaped :lol: doing this for just over a year now but I guess that was too good to be true!

My dystonia is way worse lately and doesnt seem to want to settle like it usually does and I have a really bad intention tremor so it's back to the drawing board.

I am pleased to say though that my anti-seizure med has helped my pain immensely, so I am hoping all this flaring up has nothing to do with an increase in that :rolleyes: I have had all this before starting the anti-seizure med so I doubt it.

I go see him in a little over two weeks. I'm gonna hide from my lupie doc in the waiting room though :lol: because he thinks I'm going great and I WAS!

love
Lily

Thanks all, I am wondering if he will try the botox injections in my neck this time, that sure would be good if it works for me, nervous as I am about having a 'new' treatment. They have had good success with them though I've heard.

Hazel the neck and my torso are currently affected :rolleyes: along with the intention tremor in my hand there's not much of me staying still, that in itself is pretty exhausting. I guess there is a lot of pain in my neck and shoulders from the constant twisting and abnormal posture but I guess we get used to so much it's hard to even rate things sometimes.

I take a muscle relaxant at night but it's only a mild one, so maybe there's room for improvement there too. I will see what he says as far as drug interactions, I know that needs to be looked at with all the stuff I'm on.

:hug: to all who are doing it tough right now.

love
Lily
