Since yesterday. . Im having some serious symptoms / problems Sometimes I think that Im just trying too hard, I know everyone sees my pictures, all dressed up, makeup on, out with friends having fun, ... but ask anyone that spends time with me in real life, I dont walk normally, I get up from a chair with a lot of pain or discomfort, some days I use the cane, sometimes Im in a wheelchair.. I experience complete paralysis of my extremities, I am trying really hard to be like everyone else, not be left behind, not be left out, but to be really honest, its exhausting me some days Everything that is very easy for most people physically, is an actual effort for me Bathing, shaving, even a simple trip to the bathroom, sometimes I need assistance Im having ALLOT of pain and complete immobility But its not just my legs and feet My arms, my hands and fingers cant seem to hold anything, It fluctuates ... Being on the phone or on Facebook is hard.. I hadnt had a bad day in a long time, I dont know how long this will last I dont like pain meds but I think I need them now, And wouldnt you know it, this would happen for no reason whatsoever, and also on the day that the article comes out in the Dallas Morning News yourwhiterock.dallasnews/2014/07/06/marisa-of-dallas/ My story in the Dallas Morning News Please take a minute to view it and share it if possible The more views and shares, the more likely I am to have more of the story told .I am seeking help with funding for therapy and possibly attention from a medical professional or group... Because Im having a huge problem with parkland, Ive tried for 5 weeks to schedule a doctors appointment with any doctor, and they constantly have been telling me there are no appointments available, they only scheduled out two weeks at a time.. The emergency room cannot offer me really for treatment for what I am experiencing, if you do the research, there is hardly any treatment available I need my physical therapy badly, Ive been waiting for almost 6 weeks for my doctor ordered physical therapy to begin through Parkland, for almost 5 weeks, the physical therapy administrative office has been waiting for a doctor to sign a form, no one is willing to do so.. Ive even contacted the patient advocate and the Parkland administrative offices, hence why this article and my story is so important, I am worth saving, and if it takes media attention to get the ball rolling and get the assistance I need... THEN THATS WHAT WE CAN DO The other WATER therapy that I receive at Tom Landry Baylor is $150 twice a week.. & I no longer can afford it, I am no longer an employee of cafe, I am only on call .. And my other little job at the law office is temporarily not available for the next two weeks, my boss on medical leave its taken a long time, but I can clearly see things more clearly now, and Im hoping to have some closure and forgiveness to put it simply, Im losing ability especially in my lower extremities, I have something called paraparesis that happens, spastically and unexpectedly sometimes I cant feel my legs, my feet, my arms Orfingers And the worst symptom of all is losing the ability to walk, which can last for 30 minutes or days or weeks but this isnt intended to be a sad post,its simply to say two things, thank you, and Im sorry If anyone out there can offer advice or assistance, please let me know.
