A treatment plan

OK..

went to see the new neurologist yesterday. I like him. I told him of some of the research I have been doing on the net. He thinks one of the drugs I asked him about --Avocet-- maybe the one for me. It basically helps with movement and a "real" comeback of sorts. When I told him that I have been moving better (and confirmed by Dave) he thinks this drug may be the ticket. There is a good and bad part of all this.. the good is that it is a weekly thing.. the bad is that it is an intramuscular injection. If this is the drug that will get me back on the road, then it is a good thing. I have to get an MRI done in November; this one is short, if i remember correctly. Just hate feeling like toothpaste. I am told to see if something is there. The good news is that I am better than I was at the last appointment. A good thing. Now keep hoping that it is going to get better from here. The doctor seems to think that there is no reason why i cannot do my marathons again.... of course with training. That made the whole trip to Gainesville worth it.
