Specialists Appointments Mood
Sunday, April 26, 2009 | A General Update story

My labs were "either normal or of no significance" according to the recorded message left by my doctor's office, but I am still going to request a copy. I saw the eye doctor on Friday; he gave me a prescription for night driving glasses and I am having a visual field test this week to make sure the floater is no biggie.

 

To my surprise, my pulse-ox test came back abnormal. I don't know the details, but my doc referred me to a sleep specialist (Dr. Hasan, Tallahassee Pulmonary Clinic), so I will find out more when I go see him May 19th. I'm almost relieved; this could be why I am so tired all the time!

 

As for the numbness and tingling, my mom asked me if it could be TMJD, and when I researched the symptoms, it was like, "jackpot!"; TMJ Disorder could be causing many of my problems: headaches, neck pain, and the numbness, also sinus problems; maybe even not sleeping well at night. So I requested a referral to go see Dr. Woodruff for that, and I will see him June 4th unless someone cancels.

 

My appointment with the allergist is May 19th as well, I also have an appt. scheduled with the neurologist, i think not this week but the next. I think that's everything. I will post updates after my appointments.
