Misdiagnosed

I went to see my neurologist Dr. Escutin at Loma Linda Univ Medical Center today and he told me I DO NOT have CIDP. I was misdiagnosed in 2007 by Dr. Boutros in Murrieta, Ca.

I received IVIg infusions for over two years for nothing. All a complete waste of time and a very large amount of my money and insurance money.

My diagnosis is Diabetic polyneuropathy, Painful Neuropathy, Disturbance of the skin sensation, Diabetes.

I will be writing more about this in future post.

Loma Linda neurology

Well I go to Loma Linda Univ Medical Center tomorrow to see my neurologist (Dr. Escutin) to go over the results of my most recent series of test. I am excited and scared at the same time because he hinted a couple of months ago that my CIDP diagnosis might be incorrect and that would be a big blow. It would be like starting over with maybe a new treatment regimen. I pray and trust God for the outcome. God has not brought me thus far to give up on me now.

Lumbar Puncture

I had a lumbar puncture yesterday at Desert Regional Hospital. Now I wait to see my neurologist at Loma Linda Medical Center on December 15th and go over all the results.

Loma Linda neurology

I went to Loma Linda university medical neurology dept and the doc ordered another EMG, Nerve Conduction test and a lumbar puncture. He also hinted around that he thought I might have been misdiagnosed! We will find out soon enough.

God's blessings,
