Circles with no straight line!
OK, my lovely little peeps! How the heck are ya? Great I hope but boy get ready to crack up. Began new meds and so far it's so-so I still jerk when it's time to take may palithara of meds. I must admit, I've been playing "mix the combo" with the meds as the condition has worsened and I was trying to eliminate if it were one of my multi-colored pills. Here's the fun part. None made me better/worse so I am taking them all except the one that causes my BP to fall. First, I tried to get out of bed but legs didn't get the message. So much for being quiet! Woke hubby up with a huge thud and he said "What the Hell are you doing?" I replied "Just checking the floor." ROFLOL He then said "Good grief" and rolled back over to sleep. Second night, I tried to get out of bed but legs didn't get the message. Woke hubby up with a huge thud and he said "What the Hell are you doing" and this time I said I was going to the bathroom which he then said "Well, that's the closet." Ok, change direction then go back to sleep. Third night, I tried to get out of bed but legs didn't get the message. Yes, ma'am floor level ASAP! By now hubby has figured out my secret problem I was trying to cover up. So, I got up from the floor and very dignified walked face first full speed into the bedroom wall. Thank God the next move I actually got the door. ROFLOL So hubby admits he's concerned cause he sees me getting "worse". Oh, all the above happened after I feel down 15 stairs on the back porch! ROFLOL Yep, bruise that looked like impressionistic art. ROFLOL So, I'm still staggering into walls, doors, everything as well as falling and then this new thing hit. I AM SO DEAD DOG SERIOUS, THIS IS A TOPPER OF ALL TOPPERS. I'm in the living room and we are getting ready to go somewhere and as I begin walking for whatever reason, I began walking backwards in huge circles. ROFLOL ROFLOL ROFLO Husband is looking at me and says "can't you stop that?" I replied "Nope so I'll try to get you on the next round." Well, I'm making major time in my big circle then when I come around to hubby he grabs me. WHEEEEEW Finally, I stopped. Hubby & mom are suggesting a can for me and I said it won't help because when my legs decide to quit, they do and there is no warning.....Now you see her, OOOOPS, now she's on the floor. Hugs & love to you all

Oh honey I hope they can get you fixed real soon. Is there any possibility you would be able to travel to a huge city near you that might have advanced testing or have you tried that already
hugs honey
NECIE, my dear, If nothing else, at least people can\'t point and tell their children \"Do you wanna act like that lady falling around in circles? Well, then you better eat your vegatables!
Seriously I am being careful. Yep, still wore them high hills to church and hubby said \"Is that a smart thing to do?\" I replied, \"Nope but if I\'m going down I\'m gonna look good.\" ROFLOL
You goofus, when is it you see the neuro guy?
OH I know it\'s not funny really but I have done that very thing getting out of bed and I know how crazy it seems right at that moment. Then there was the night I didn\'t realize I had fallen out of bed and was sasleep on the floor trying to get my legs down! Oh yeah that was a good one too!

CAROL - See neuro man later this month. I\'ve juggle my meds into every configuration imaginable to discern if the worsening is due to one of the meds. Well, it ain\'t.
Found another person that has PD (Paroxsymal Diskensia) and she has had episodes that last 4 hours! I\'ve seen on the TV a woman jerking like I do and the commercial is for a hospital around here. They cut open her chest, brain or something and inserted a device that the Dr activated during the commercial. WELL I KNOW WHAT I WANT FOR VALENTINE\'s DAY! I want to check out if I\'m a candidate and do some research.
I hate the incessant jerking, twitching and stuttering. I\'ve lost weight with all my shimming but I\'m getting to the point it\'s affecting my life. I already have enough of that. LOL
NAN - Next time you see one of those little hula dolls that were popular dashboard things in the 50\'s, just think....GOOD GRAVY! THAT\'S HOW SHE ACTS? ROFLOL
