Hey all thought I would post and say that yes it was a flare and it turned
scary for me. I started having stiffness in my neck and headaches. I had my
first seizure this last weekend and it was not fun at all. I lost part of my
eyesight last weekend but it did return when the inflammation subsided. I
still can not get my thoughts together I feel like a half ripe veggie. I
attempted to take care of some of my business today and I was so embarrassed
that I could not even think or speak the way I should. I go to see a neoro
doc this week. My family doc is caring for me right now and she is doing
wonderful. She told me to just forget about my rd since she cant even get
him to call her back and that she was going to send me to a new rd.. I am
assuming that I have some cns inflammation going on. You know I did get to
pick out my Christmas card list cards..that was fun and I am going to try to
get to my water arthritis class this week.
Miss you guys and see you soon bye bye for now

Yikes, Rhonda, that sounds absolutely horrible!!!   Almost sounds like
meningitis with the stiff neck and headache!   Sure hope he neuro gets
to the bottom of it all and that you get to feeling better!!!
