Wrapping Up Chapter 1 --- Mayo Clinic Experience





Pic of me with Dr. P.J. Dyck and Dr. Rami Massie who have given this foe a name. They are sending us back to SA with a diagnosis -- FINALLY -- and a treatment plan!! It appears to be a rare disorder of the central nervous system that primarily affects the sensory nerves. Treatment includes physical therapy and IV immunoglobulin administration to suppress the autoimmune response and allow repair and regeneration to improve and regain the ability to walk, run -- and an occasional cartwheel :-)
