I just finished seeing the doctor for rehabilitative medicine this week. He examined me thoroughly and was not concerned about my strength. He feels that the messages from my brain to my foot are not getting there, which causes me to feel weakness, when there really isn't much. This causes me to have much difficulty walking, because I feel like I have no balance. I am now using walking sticks to help me keep my balance. Anytime Kath is with me (which is most of the time), I use her to lean on (which I have been doing the last 37 years). There is a possibility that I might use a brace on my right leg in the future. The doctor also thought that I needed a balance evaluation. We are looking at several options. I've also seen my chemo doctor and my blood pressure is a concern. He contacted my primary care physician, who increased my blood pressure meds. Blood pressure seems to be under control now that my doctor doubled my meds. After seeing my pain management doctor, I've changed my dosage, because I have not been able to sleep through the night, and last night slept from 11:30pm until 12:30 pm the next day. I have not slept that long since college exam days!! For a guy that never used pills in his life, I sure am making up for lost ground. We are all waiting for my April 3 and 4 appointments. April 3 is my tests and April 4 we hear if the medication I am on is working. Until then, I'll keep moving and doing what they tell me to do. I'll keep you all posted! Again, I appreciate you reading all this!
