Yes, I'll get to work and find a neurologist. I'll need to go out of town for that, but our hospital shuttle will provide the ride. I drive locally around town but not long distances at fast speeds so I'm kind of limited.
I still believe my whole problem began with that final radiation treatment for anal cancer when my sacrum was fractured. (Proof: MRI) They pulled me off the machine because I passed out. And when I woke up with an IV in me, the nurse said I probably forgot to drink the water. In short, I let her have it and told her I did no such thing. I had three more days of radiation treatments left, but they discharged me early. That was in December 2013.
In August 2018, I moved to a Senior apartment dwelling and started walking on safe and solid sidewalks, without gravel or gutters to fall into, or speeding cars to dodge, and no threat of dogs running loose. I was in 7th heaven, until my hip joints started locking up on me, 1st my L than my R. This was in January 2019. I've kept records. I also use to walk at home with Leslie Sansones, Miracle Miles. She is amazing. Her timing is superb and she is an excellent health and fitness coach. I need to reconnect with Leslie, and also stay focused with Qi Gong.
BTW, I looked up large fiber sensory poly-neuropathy and it doesn't fit me. I have no loss of lower extremities. I walk barefoot every day and I have full coordination and balance in my lower extremities and no loss of sensation in my feet.
But no more self-diagnosis coming from this gal. I'm going to find a neurologist and finally obtain a professional point of view.
Salute and happy days to all of us. And may they find a cure for whatever ails us. Hugs, CB
