Anyone have any ideas about how a newbie like me can get info to my questions on a more personal, face to face kind of way? The links I have checked out do not have info on support groups in my local area. The closest one I have found is a few hours drive. I don't drive so well right now. You have all been so helpful, but I think I have hit a "technical information overload". My brain is going to pop (lol). I plan to go back to my neurologist and give him a little push for some kind of more definite diagnosis. I also plan to ask him for at least giving me meds of a test basis to see if this would help. Is this a bad idea? I also plan to ask him for a referral to a movement disorder specialist. I hope to be able to return to some kind of work, but with this stiffness, and loss of balance & fatigue I just can't. Competing with the seeming 3 minute doctor visit I get with this HMO, and the slow rate of definite answers as to diagnosis is driving me Looney. If anyone knows of a group that meets in the Kitsap Peninsula area of Washington state PLEASE let me know. Sorry for the long whine, guess I just needed to vent! Thanks my new online friends, David M.
