New Neruo

OK, new dr but won't b my "regular" dr.  I went into an episode (found out that's the "technical term" not jerk fest of Dystonia 18.  Just go to mayoclinc.com and look for it.  It is RARE (would I do anything normal?), and it is on the 18th rung of the DNA ladder.)  This is hysterical.  Considering where it's located, I shouldn't ever b on a ladder bc of jerking. ROFLOL  No cure.  Big shock.  Drs were asking me how to treat me.  Boy, either med school is useless or it doesn't cover rare conditions.  I had an episode with 3 drs viewing and NONE OF THEM KNEW WHAT TO DO!
Dr 1 gave me my purse so I could get my meds.  Told me not to "move" then RAN to get Dr 2 who said, "How are we?"  WE?  It affects my speach & I stutter so being miffed I said, "OH WE'RE FINE!"  Yes, then God whacked me and I stuttered "Sorry. Rude." So to get rid of me they called the ambulance and as I lay jerking hysterically, I kept telling them I was FINE.  They strapped me in to the ambulance to go to the ER.  Then entire ride I kept saying "crap" non-stop. 
Now at the ER, Dr 3 says "What do they do for you?"  I'm thinking "dear Lord, doesn't anyone know medicine?"  I stuttered "Shot".  OK Dr 3 was not going to try to hit a earthquake.  So he said "Pill?"  I said "OK. Sit UP."  So, got the pill down.
On my release papers after the 1 1/2 hours EPISODE, I got dyskenisia as my dx.  I knew that, duh.  But now that a DR has said it after I told him, DUH, he said, "I've never seen anything like it."  My reply, "Well, good, now you have something interesting to write in your journal."  Yeah, I know, salt & vinegar thru & thru.  Hey, but people never forget meeting me!!! ROFLOL
New Dr, #2, was to b my new dr., he had his secretary phone me at home and stated "He won't touch you."  HEEEE HAWWW.  Yeah.  I figure he's got no chutzpah or moxie.  
However, after 1 1/2 hours of non-stop jerk fest, God has seen fit to heal me and I no longer walk with a cane or walker.  Hmmmm, must have been like a dirty rug that need shaken really well. ROFLOL
See new neuro this month.  I ain't saying nothing but once she puts me thru the ole poke & prob, she will get to see something she's never seen before. ROFLOL  But then again, told she's the best she may know just from talking to me.
HUGS & LOVE MY FRIENDS

I\'m almost crying...I\'m laughing so hard I can just see it! Same scenario has happened a few times in my life. No doctors will treat my Ehlers-Danlos either. Doctors say yeah we got 20 minutes in med school. Refuse to deal with it except for my surgeon. Nearly killed me because we didn\'t know back then. He is very interested and listening.
Hopefully this new Neuro will be that one for you.

Well, love, glad you got your giggles. The Bible says laughter doeth good like medicine. Still 3 drs. and all of them running scared AWAY from the patient. Where\'s that in the hipocratic oath?
