I am a young woman who grew up on the South Side of Chicago all her life and just recently moved to Seattle, WA with my husband. This is a blog about my life with my new found diagnosis of TB.

Neurology Appointment
Well... the appointment was not what I had hoped or what I wanted. The doctor went through the same things that we discussed three months ago. Then when pushed to continue treatment (AKA start Botox) he backed off and said he was uncomfortable giving me the shots. His alternative was to suck it up until I eventually get pregnant, finish the pregnancy & breast feeding, and then I can continue treatment. With some pushing the doctor did say that he would refer us to the doctor in the office that performs the botox injections. He will however not continue them when I am pregnant. (There hasn't been enough research on Botox & pregnancy so doctors are apprehensive...). So.. now I just need to wait until March 22nd to do my first round of Botox which will then last me 16 weeks. Here we go..
