Well....
I’m home now and I feel very sad and defeated right now.
I’ll update on what I found out but then I’m not answering for the rest of the night. I’ll come back tomorrow but it’s just too much right now.
The ER doctor tonight was able to get the results of my mri from two weeks ago. The report says that there is significant advancement of lesions on my spine since November of 2017. Significant.
Most likely, this is the reason for the falls, but can’t be 100% confirmed until I meet with my neuro. The dr tonight sent over a consult request and I will also be calling and leaving a stern message for him basically saying I told you so. I’ll either go see him or he’ll just set up a steroid treatment, either pills or IV. Neither option is desirable for many reasons.
The worst part of this, and the part that has me so hopeless right now, is this means that I failed on my last measure nuclear bomb option treatment that I did for the past two years. It was supposed to be the end all of medications. The one that was supposed to stop all progression in its tracks. And it didn’t. I went through hell with those treatments and the recovery and now it was for nothing.
I’m sorry. That’s as far as I can go for tonight. I hope you can understand.
