I finally got into the neurologist yesterday. He found no reason to be interested in the weight loss vs. tremor returning thing. I find it frustrating that is seems related but all the MDs are like "interesting" and then move on. UGH! Other than that I love my doc but seriously why does no one think anything of the switch on my tremor flipping with weight loss?

He did not put my back on Mysoline which made me happy. Something about a drug with a long half life that breaks down to phenobarbital really gives me the creeps. Plus I had to take super high estrogen BC which cannot be good for you. Otherwise I had no complaints about Mysoline but phenabarbitol is a bit scary. So we are trying Inderol which is cool since I can take it as needed. May not be cool if it makes me pass out, we will see when it is filled this afternoon.

The crappy thing is I asked why neurologists and my GP keep asking if I have had scans. My doctor said honestly he doesn't know why he never sent me probably because the docs at Baylor didn't so good, lets do it to "dot the i's and cross the t's". So I ask a question and wind up getting sent for a MRI which he thinks will change nothing. I don't know why but I am totally weirded out by the MRI. I tried to get DH to take me (whenever it is) but he said "it is no big deal and I don't know if I can get off". Ugh, I know it is no big deal but I don't want to wait alone.

On a side note, my blood pressure was high yesterday 141/92. They used some kind of new thingy that goes on your wrist and looks like a polar HR monitor. I wonder how good that is to use on someone who cannot stop shaking in their wrists? Anyway my BP is usually much lower like 110/60 so I am not thinking too much of it and the doctor didn't even notice it was high on the chart. Besides inderol will lower BP so it is all good I guess.

I wonder why I feel like I have more questions today than answers? At least the bright side is since we switched meds I am on a 3 month visit window instead of 12 month like I once was.
