New Here....

I was going to use the "Journal" portion of this site to keep a diary but I felt I might as well copy/paste what I wrote here as well. I think I am going Crazy!!!!!
:lol:
(Sorry.. This is like a "note to self")It is Valentines day. We just got back from supper at Applebees. I am getting to where I am stuffed, I mean really stuffed when I eat, almost like full of air to the point where I cant breath. Well its been almost a week since I started with the "Symptoms". Last friday when I went to work, I had slurred speech and a droopy left side of my face. It was the same saturday and sunday. I didnt feel "Bad" or anything. I have also started "drooling" out the left corner of my lips. Still thinking its not a big deal, I go to the hospital BRH sunday night. BTW, i have been having dizziness episodes for about a week now to. After 4 days in the hospital.. several tests (spinal tap, MRIx2,CTx3,sonogramx3, and eko) they send me home. neurologist Zala diagnoses early with MS, pending test results. Everyone else disagrees. I noticed that fri and sat I came down with an extreme, extreme tiredness about noon each day. Monster energy drink to the rescue. I think I may be reading into this too much! Now I have to start to worry about work... Hope they dont start asking questions. I hope I can keep this my little secret for the next 6 years.

Bubba...
Are you feeling any better/worse since testing? I'm still hoping your symptoms can be explained by pretty severe nicotine withdrawal from your years of chewing tobacco. Try to do something fun this weekend to take your mind off of this (I know, easier said than done!)
Hang in there, and let us know what's up.
