update yesterday i went to the dr.
After fighting with the county for what seems like forever now finaly they got it done. My health ins is going to be activated tuesday. They are getting my referal done. They will definitely have my apointment in two weeks.
That is a relief.
Tuesday the 26th i was speaking to my daughter with the same tremmor i had in my voice for about 8 months now. By tuesday evening my voice had dramaticaly changed im having to force it out.
My dr said i do not have an inflamed throat.
It does not hurt.
Last night for the first time in my life i woke up not being able to breath so i gasped and let air in.
Then i rested for a bit to make sure i continued to breath. Then i went back to sleep.
That was scary but maybe just a one time event.
I think im getting cranky lately and its due to frustration over loss of my abilities.
Oh doc did confirm that my hunching was due to my scoliosis, which is what she believes.
She did more reflex testing
Knees, ankles, at the elbow and wrist too.
Dont know what any of it means but they are at least getting me to the neurologist.
