On the Right Path

At last, I have the correct diagnosis and I'm finally getting the proper treatment to take care of the original problem and repair the damage from the wrong medications. In the near future, I'm hoping to be posting a new photo to my blog. Thank you all again for your kind words of support.

What is the new diagnosis?

Celeste Van Kirk said...

I have been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The treatment I received for MS really compounded the problem. Now I am getting the proper treatment at a specialized clinic.
Hope to see you soon Brant.

It talks specifically about chronic fatigue and MS misdiagnosis. ...very interesting.

Celeste, hope you are feeling better. CFS is a steep mountain to climb, but with your strength, you will do it. I love your pix, they are of "back home." Canonsburg-my cousins still live there, I spent alot of time in the summers there w/my aunt Mary & lived for the time when Peg would come home from Pittsburg & work. She is like my big sis. The farmer - ah yes. I was a fool. The reservists, the pain in the faces of the reservists is heart breaking. The wives' emotions can be felt. Summer fun - what we all did and still should do, play with water, be a kid.

Let me know how you are doing, what you need. I didn't have exactly what you did, but went thru alot of the same symptoms - one thing I did have was a very mild "happy" pill. That kept me going a bit. Take care, God bless.
