God, you’ll never know how helpful you are. Thank you for taking your time...I have suggested the Facebook support group..and positive steps forward ...I’m driving him to Mayo for his appointment in MN. We’re in Chicago..but not til 10/1/ 18 ... in the meantime giving him every piece of knowledge I can get my hands on. Amazing what he doesn’t know...never heard about eating small meals and slowly ...that seems to be first and foremost with all I have read. The diagnosis fairly resent 3 or so months but still...Fear can cause some to freeze...I feel compelled to help...I talked to him about overmedicating... he said he isn’t...but his Dr just prescribed a medication called Amitriptyline 50 mg....I looked it up...side effects outrageous....he hasn’t picked it up...Dr said it will help with pain...I told him what you said, about pain meds...scarey “....
