Rheumatologist appointment productive but I wonder if he'll change his mind after he hears about x-ray results. He said to get off gabapentin and I can taper it like I wanted, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to see a cardiologist. When I'm off gabapentin he said to consider nerve tests on my legs. I had them for arms and it was SO painful! I have to think about it.

I hope the pneumonia is reason I don't feel well since last week, but only part of the picture. No fever, just exhausted but of course gabapentin does that! The Dr. said it causes anxiety and depression too.
Dr. said not pneumonia!! A different Dr. Said probably anxiety!!
