    I do believe that family probably tests this on a daily basis, mine does. I wish you the best of luck with everything.

    Thank you, Its been a while since I felt decent. Its all been down hill since late last year. There aren't any Neurologists in my area that are covered by my insurance. I had to exhaust all what my personal doctor could do until I could get a referral to this doctor. So at least I'm getting somewhere.

    Waking up feeling more tired than when I sacked out and like my heads in the clouds is really really getting old. All the other pain, numbness and tingling isn't a cake wake, But I can deal with that.

    Have you had your b12 and D checked? Very important and so often overlooked.

    jtakeman , your new avatar cracks me up!! Lol, there is a term understood by certain doctors for the "head in the clouds" feeling. It's called Brain Fog. There should be an avatar of bubbles from the head instead of wind from the behind :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    Yep, Along with my ticker(they started with all the heart stuff first). Lime was checked. Lopus checked, and a few others I can't remember. All the ones not covered by insurance pretty much! So far all that they found is high starch levels and a slight mercury level.

    My wallet is pretty light now too!

    seems be the way things are going. I have my Medicare and Tricare, no deductibles. I also am service connected so the VA is an option. good luck with you eval.

    I did have the toots today, So I figured it would be a good loner avatar. I'll give the pig a break for a bit.

    Got a few brew ones I can use too.

    I will try looking for a bubble head! I feel more like that most days anyway!!

    Mercury level could be from the fish you eat, just saying. It's beer time for the older folks and the end of beer time for others so have a brew and relax:cheers:

    As the others said best of luck and if we can help in any way let us know. It sucks when you don't feel well. My advise is beer. Lots. And pellets. Sets. When it gets a little colder. Until then fish. And relax.

    Hope everything works out Jay. At least you went to the Dr. to find out what's wrong. I would have ignore it and paid the consequences. And you're not that old yet.
