EMG
I had my EMG test yesterday. It was quite a "shock"! LOL just trying to keep things light. The neurologist who did the tests said it didn't look like I have any nerve damage. That is a good thing. I then went for my MRI of the spine. Waiting to hear from my doctor about the results.
I saw my gp doc on Tues evening. I asked him about my Effexor XR. He said it certainly could be the cause for my problems. My doc agreed to wean me off of it. So, he took me off of the 150 mg. and put me on 50 mg twice a day. I am to take them like that for one month and then see him again. He will lower the dose again next month and then for the New Year I will be off of anti depressants all together.
Hopefully either the weaning from the Effexor or the testing the new neurologist is doing will give me some answers.
I have started reading "The Secret". It is quite interesting. I am trying to be positive and keep a positive attitude all of the time. It is quite difficult to do that in the sea of negativity in which I work. I keep telling myself over and over that "I am happy!" and trying to really convince myself that I am. I will get there! I am better than them and stronger than them and dog gone it, I like myself! LOL...still trying to keep it light!
