Latest Test Results

I received the results of my MRI today and the report states "no significant change is seen in the appearance, size, or number of the white matter lesions. No abnormal enhancement is seen to suggest active disease on MR". YAY!!!!

My neuro actually asked about the CURCUMIN I've been taking, how much I take each day, cost, where I purchase it, etc. as she has several other patients she would like to talk to about it. WOOT! I asked her about the obvious changes in my brain as the "cog fog" is completely gone and she said that while the MRI won't indicate changes on the cellular level, i.e. mylin, there is definitely something going on, the mylin is obviously being "rebuilt" and it's all good!

On the neurological test, I made a 100.  Holy Cow!!!  Everything checked out extremely well and I even did more than the doctor asked.

Doin' the happy dance!!!!!

Lack of Blogging

My mother recently asked about my lack of blogging and I really didn't have a good answer.  When nothing is going on, there really isn't anything to blog about.  I will try my best to come up with something now!

My MRI is less than a week away and I feel like I should take megadoses of Curcumin just to make the changes on my MRI even more pronounced.  But I certainly don't want to have some sort of weird reaction so I guess I'll just stick with the current dosage.  I'm actually nervous about this test because I can really see the changes that have occurred since my last test and want my doctor to be able to see them on the results.  Hopefully it's more than just extreme optimism!

Richard told me last night that my health insurance premiums are going up October 1 by approximately $100.00 per month.  Yay.  I'm already paying over $450.00 a month so what's a little more.  We are definitely in the wrong business!

Other than that, kids are good, hubby is good, life is good, and work is insane.

Okay...I've blogged! :-)
