Sorry I Left Ya Hanging

Hey there.. I'm so sorry I left you guys hanging. Past few days have been tough. Monday's radiation was ok.. laying on the table for a lengthy time was hard. My radiation Dr. got an appt. w/the neurologist the same day. He's gonna have to run test to figure out the numbness. Guess what, another MRI (ugh) the MRI from Fri. night ER didn't include a pelvic scan.. Oh, and you guys know how my Friday's go... My MRI's scheduled for Friday. Thur. I'll have an EMG where they will be testing my nerves to see if they can find something. So how bad is the numbness... Right side of right foot and calf.. it's a tingling numbness.. and entire pelvic area with no tingle.. just numb.. having trouble telling when I need to go to the bathroom.. somehow I still have control.. (thank god) I woke up this morning trying positive affirmation.. I'm about 70/30 at this time.. believing myself about 30%. I'll hopefully get there but I'm working really hard at it. So what's my schedule like.. Wed. radiation (a.m) Thur. neurologist (afternoon) Fri. MRI (7 am) kinda crazy.. guess I'll be going another week without knowing what's going on.

Wow what a busy week you have. No wonder your tired, take a look at your schedule not to mention the mental strain all of this is on you, going to all of these appointments and waiting to find out what is next. I sure hope they get to the bottom of the numbness problem and get that taken care of ASAP.
Take care and try to stay positive. As always you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
