What a day!
I had an appointment today with my MS doctor, it was supposed to be a routine visit but he asked me if I wanted to participate in a clinical study!
So mom and I where there from 11 this morning till 4:30 this afternoon, not counting the 2 hour drive to get there. I'll have to go back in a month for an MRI, more bloodwork and stuff and after that every 3 months. I may have to change meds, but won't know until I go to the first appointment. The good thing is i won't have to pay for any of my visits with my neuro, or any meds for 3 years as long as I stay in the trial. I go July 11th for a small radiation dose and back on July 14th for a scan to make sure all my cancer is gone so it's going to be a long month..lol/ Sorry this is so long, when I'm tired I tend to go nuts..lol.

I bet you are tired. When I called your mom to let her know we got home okey she said she just saw you walking up and down the hallway (that was about 1:30) and that it was a good thing she came with you because after all that walking you would have been to tired to drive home. I told her I hoped you all got out before 5 o'clock traffic in W-S.
Glad to know you won't have to pay for the visits for 3 years, now go get some rest, I know you must be tired.

I'm so glad that you were able to get into a study where they'll pay for your visits and meds. That is such a blessing! Hang in there and take care!
