Hi, I'm back from the Neuro Clinic. Improved oldies (but not goldies..): I DO have Parkinsons (there was an idea that maybe I was not having PD but sg other) and depression and chr. migraine Labor tests, including MRI, blood tests, sleeping test (a full night exam in a sleeping-labor, where they "equipped" me with alot instruments, I looked like a monster or an UFO with numberless electrodes mainly on my head and a bit fewer everywhere on my body), a special test with 1+6 blood test --- hardly I have usable veins- and forced bycicling where they controlled my lactat level, ENG and Doppler and ... My mother used to tell me "You're a witch my dear" - maybe she was right, 'cause so many tests and exams were that I felt only my burning would be the next. Proven news: RLS Hypersomnia Chr. pain syndrome Enzymopathia Struma nodosa ( two adenomas in my left thyroid, 6 mm both of them - the "only" interesting thing is that between my two daughters' birth I had hypethyreosis and toxic adenoma of 8 mm, my Eszter was 9 months old when I had had my surgery, strumectomia, with the total resection of my right part of thyroid. Now I was told my right part of thyroid was of normal size. Curious...) Mononeuropathia multiplex News to be more proven: SLE - Systemic lupus erythematosus http://medlib.med.utah.edu/WebPath/TUTORIAL/SLE/SLE.html and sg what I cannot translate - enlarged(???) chambers and significantly wider (???) outer (???) liquor space/field in my brain I have to go to other tests (auto-immunology, thyroid, enzyms, ...???), and after getting into my hands all the wanted and suggested tests, the Neuroligical and Neurosurgical Clinic of Debrecen (it is in the North-East part of our country) is waiting for me to make a little surgery on me: for a nice muscle-neuro byopsia, and maybe for a PET or SPECT. And then we will see .. (what???) Oh, I almost forgot to mention that I am on new medication: no more amantadine and Mirapex, but Jumex and Tegretol CR (carbamazepin) Well, to tell the truth, I now am scared a bit. Don't know what to do with these newcomers... and what are they exactly. "Shall I be happy, shall I be rich..."???
