Happy New Year 2012!

Happy New Year!
It is now January and I have been home since the middle of November.  A lot of things have happened since my last post. I had some rough times in the rehab and ended up in the E.R. twice.  I may post more about that later.  I am still in the wheelchair and may be starting to have problems again. My tremors are coming back as is some of the pressure in my head. I still have severe pain in my neck and head.  I believe I go for a 6 month MRI next month.  I am getting home health now with home Physical Therapy.  In October I started getting some "awareness" feeling in my legs where I was always aware of them.  It was uncomfortable and annoying.  That has since gone away.  They said it was a good sign that the connections in my brain were re-firing.  Now it's gone.  The Neurosurgeon said I will continue to see improvement for up to two years so I'm not concerned yet (much). I will try for more updates but as of now I'm pretty much in a holding pattern.
