Barb, I am very concerned -- this is an exceedingly complex set of circumstances, and it seems to me you're getting conflicting choices. I truly believe your condition, both pre- and post-hospitalization, is too complicated for listmembers to solve. Charlie? Bob? any thoughts here? I strongly recommend you copy this information into a post to Dr. Lieberman; he thinks highly of Dr. Pahwa, and may have some thoughts there, as well as advice re the rigidity and the throat constriction (could it be a dystonia, for instance?).
