Thank you for the positivity Lisa. It came at a welcome moment. Just got back from the neurologist and the EMG confirms the severe proximal myopathy seen on the biopsy. He’s saying I’ve lost muscle and it can’t be replaced. I’ll have to try to strengthen what I have, and then be assessed by a driving specialist who assesses people who’ve had strokes, etc., to drive. If not, I’ll have to get my car adapted and then get re-certified to drive the adapted car. Not at all where I thought I’d be at 57. But spend too long searching for a diagnosis or a drug that works while on steroids - and this is where you wind up. But I’ve processed, I’ve taken a deep breath, and now it’s upwards and onwards. I’ll spend this cold weather gaining strength. I’m manifesting that I’ll be driving by the summer 🚗 😊

Thank you again for the encouragement and prayers XO
