We'll just have to keep hoping and wishing that all goes well and you have no need for bedrest.  Please try to take this one day at a time - the stress is not good.   Last year after my heart attack, my hr dept. wanted me to start the FMLA clock - I refused and came back to work in 9 days, just one day shy Multiple system atrophy of being forced to start the clock. Once that clock starts ticking, it...

There used to be a great site called Radiology Assistant. Q

Has anyone filed a ADA claim against an employer? If so, were you successful?

Even though my 3T MRI was on a machine with not-so-great software, the difference of the images between that and the images done on a 1.5T the year before are pretty impressive.  Definitely mercedes vs VW... I'm glad that the 1.5 software is getting better.

Debs,   Depression is a real part of the disease. It is like a pain and filter I see the world through when it affects me. It makes everyone feel isolated. People say what are you depressed about. I do not get that question. For me the depression comes first. In my experience fighting it takes more energy. It is like body surfing. A big wave drags you under. If you try to come up right a way you get knocked down by the next...

I am also very sorry to hear about you diagnosis.  It is good to finally find out what is wrong, but not good when you hear the doctor say it out loud if that makes sense.  This is a tough diagnosis to get but you are a tough lady and once things have settled in a bit, get the bull by the horns to keep this under control especially the pain. Ren is right, you are a card-carrying member here and we all hope...

WAF--are you thinking of primary lateral sclerosis, or PLS? That's the "slow form" of ALS, one that can take about 3-5 years to get diagnosed, but like ALS, it's a motor neuron disease, with no sensory loss associated with it. (It is true that very rarely, someone with ALS survives for decades; Stephen Hawking is a clear example, but the disability score is still dramatic within a few years)....

Hi, I am so sorry, I wish I could think of something else to say, Lisa You need to give yourself some time to work through the shock of two pieces of new you weren't expecting to receive today. The first one being that you don't have MS.You had prepared yourself to get told you had MS. So the joy of knowing that you don't have it,  was very short lived. ,Then you hear. You have this --------- and there is no...

Will do, but I'm looking for it again so I can see the progress - I gave up before :( once I get it I'm going to save it... I hope they can find a general solution - you've worked so hard on those pages and there is much to be learned from them. Can they at least push pin the outline so it stays on top. It could have different properties than the rest of the pages... Thank you Doc Q
