[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 309439, member: 1233"] Thank you to everyone. The neuro we saw recently IS a new neuro to us. He also tried to blame this on depression. We insisted he look for other solutions first. Said we will agree that it may play a part, but it isn't the cause. He is doing lab work, and then the MRI before he does anything with medications other than rx'ing what the pediatrican had given her for the pain of the muscle spasms. If the tests show nothing then I am pushing for him to run every single test he can think of. Blood tests, I mean. Or lab tests. I just hate fighting each time she has a problem because the docs see a female and assume it is depression or anxiety. I get that enough for my medical problems. Jess does NOT deserve substandard care from docs just because she is female. Not ALL female problems are caused by depression or anxiety. If males got this anxiety business from doctors there would be a lot of doctors out of business. Cause the men would be howling long and loud about idiot doctors. Time for us females to start howling!!! Anyway, thanks for all the ideas. As we learn new things I will post them. In the last week it has gone from having breaks between periods of shaking to having no breaks. She can suppress it for 10-30 seconds at a time but it comes back hard. Hugs to all. [/QUOTE]
