My health is failing. I have an undiagnosed neurological disease. The symptoms resemble numerous diseases -- Lyme, Post Polio Syndrome, ALS -- but a battery of blood tests, x-rays, an EMG, and numerous doctors have failed to identify it. I have an appointment in December with one of the top rare disease specialists in the world.
In the meantime, among the medications I am taking is Lyrica. It masks 80% of the pain, but makes me feel dizzy, exhausted, short on concentration. What took me 20 minutes to write before now takes an hour. Visitors from Brazil, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Canada, and of course the U.S. -- to name a few -- have given me hope, plus a solid geography lesson. I thank you for your understanding, and hope you will bear with me as I answer your emails in the order that they arrive. Rest assured that I will continue to do so as long as I am able.
