Non Diagnoses But...

Hello everyone. 10 days ago was my doctor's appointment and I think we might be a little closer to figuring this out. The doctor  said that I need to take one more test at the hospital for another brain thing. Anyway the good news is that I am not depressed and my stress is normal and that the twitching and things IS NOT ALL IN MY HEAD unlike some people believe. The doctor said that what is going on with me is real. Something to do with my frontal lobes and motor skills.  The day after my appointment my ring finger and pinkie on my left hand was twitching strongly off and on all that day.  A few days ago my legs did these weird things.  And sometimes I am noticing that my smell is off.  Popcorn sometimes smells like boiled peanuts and then starts tasting like dirt.  I guess that is everything for right now.  I haven't been writing this stuff down like I use to so I might have forgotten somethings.  Thanks for reading.  God Bless.

More things I forgot

Hello everyone,  Okay I will start with the most recent to the furthest away.  Today I had just gotten out of the car and I had only walked a few steps when it felt like my knee was going to give out.  This might be considered as hard to swallow but a lot of the times it feels like there is a lump in my throat and I find myself swallowing a few more times than usual.  The last one I remembered was on the fourth of July when we were watching our Friends shooting fireworks.  I had to watch them with my sunglasses on because the light seemed really bright, brighter than I remember from the years before. I think that covers everything that I had forgotten.  Thanks for reading.  God Bless.

Little Things...

Hello everyone.  There might be some little things that I need to add in here.  I'm not sure how relevant they are, I've remembered things and didn't write them down when it first came back to me now I got to see if I can remember them again. 
My legs feel like weights when I walk upstairs.  Around Christmas time I noticed that I was walking different.  I just thought it was a sign that I was getting tired.  When I first start out on a grocery day I didn't notice it but later on I noticed that my back wasn't has straight and I was walking like kind of a hunchback but no s drastic as that, I don't know.  Oh yeah, I just remembered a couple of years ago, and sometimes even now my muscle under my ribs usually on the right side when  cough or laugh hard the muscle will get tight and hard and it's painful.  My ex stepmother had asked me if I had a hernia, I said no that it just happens sometimes.  My lip on the left side just twitched but it was for a second.  Okay that's it for now.  I need to go and try to motivate myself to do some housework to day.  Thanks for reading.  God Bless.

Reviewing my Cognitive test in my head

Hello everyone.  Okay, first this morning I had to get gas.  I pulled up and did everything I was suppose to do, the only problem was that I didn't remember if I swiped my card or not.  I was thinking about this the entire time I was pumping my gas.  When the receipt printed out it had the last four of my number on it so I must have.  I still don't remember swiping it though.  Yesterday was my cognitive testing, there was a questionnaire I had to circle 0 to some number and I guess I answered some of them wrong.  Like are you depressed, my sister, my friend, my father - n - law, and my husband think I am a little bit.  I guess I am, I mean I find myself sitting on the sofa most days when I should be doing other things I don't know if that qualifies as being depressed.  I also know that I should be doing my craft stuff so I can make enough to take to a craft fair this coming November.  The question about getting choked, I think I should've circled that one two.  I don't even have to be drinking anything for me to get choked.  I guess I am thinking about what if this is Parkinson's, how my life and my family's will change.  I love to go to the beach, I love to walk, I want a pair of quad roller skates so I can go skating with the kids (I have roller blades but it's not the same) and I would love to bike ride with the kids.  How long do I have before I can't drive my kids to the beach or any of that.  I do always try to think positively and not negatively, because I know that what ever it is or what ever it's not it really doesn't matter because my life is in God's hands, it always has been.  So I guess I am just a little worried about it, who wouldn't be.  I try really hard not to let it get to me because whatever it is, it is and that's that.  No amount of worrying or depression (ok that's really weird, I am sitting here typing and I got a new twitch kind of under my arm.  It felt weird) where was I; ok no amount of worrying or depression can make it better or go away.  Alright, I'm done for now.  But if anything else happens during the day I will try to remember to blog it or write it down so I can blog about it later.  Goodbye for now, God Bless.

Cognitive Testing

Hello everyone.  Well the cognitive testing I think went pretty good.  I answered questions, took a spelling test, put a puzzle together blind folded and other stuff.  I won't know anything more though for another 2 weeks.  I am still up at 2am I was looking up roller skates and then campers/RVs when my left leg started twitching, not in the normal type that I am use to it's more like it jumped.  I'm not sure if this is a new symptom or not so I thought while it is still fresh in my mind that I better put it in this blog so I wouldn't forget.  I will find out my fate 2 weeks from today, I think my mom and sd (step dad) will be going with me, that's good cause if its bad news I won't be alone.  It's funny that I write about my leg jumping and it was doing it for awhile too, it has stopped now.  Well I guess that's it for now.  God Bless.
