Meth withdraw update
 
Seen my doctor today. Some good news and some scary. There not sure why I am having problems with my lungs like I still am. So they did a ex-ray to see what is going on. Could just be healing to. Will know in a couple days. I will be getting a EKG to be sure my heart is ok. Waiting on that appointment. Also they put me on meds for possible ET/essential tremors. Had some kind of neurological problems all my life. But with this current event they got worse. So if my tremors don't go away with my physical therapy I will see a neurologist. I want to be sure my tremors are just not my body healing from being weak or did something else get worse. Also they believe im fighting high or low blood pressure. Witch explains the light headed feeling and headaches i'm getting. The med they have me on for tremors also will lower my blood pressure. I already feel better with tremors and my dizziness and no headache. So 3 good things so far. I'm defanety on my way to being my stubborn self again. lol
