When Colin told me that he hadn’t been able to go for the past few days, my first thought was:
“Now, I can say he’s clinically full of shit.”
This Wasn’t Funny Long

An update on everything that has happened so far…
July 13th- I was referred to and saw a neurologist for numbness on my right side. The numbness started in my leg and over the course of two weeks moved up my right side and at this point was only to my neck. Besides the numbness, my exam was normal with no balance issues or weakness. The neurologist was skeptical if my insurance company would even cover a MRI since my symptoms were not that severe. But she pleaded my case, and the MRI was scheduled for the following week.
