I have an update. It’s good news, good news, bad news.
Good news #1: I found a great Neuro local to me. He’s actually the doctor that diagnosed my sister with MS over 40 years ago. Not planned, but big co-incidence!
Good news #2: He explained everything in terms I can understand. Most importantly he explained how the MG test was done and I don’t have it!
Bad news: I am severely copper deficient. This is very rare so treatment is going to be different, to say the least. it was right there in my blood test results like a big fat meatball, yet neither my old Neuro, nor my old PCP, noticed it.
I am happy to find what the problem is. It takes a lot of stress off of me. Now the long road of figuring out how to correct it. There are a lot of similarities in symptoms between this and MG. The double vision is a separate issue we need to address, but I’m confident that this Neurologist of over 55 years in practice will see it through (pun intended!)
Thank you everyone for you support!
