I saw my doctor, the epileptologist, yesterday.

I'd had a sleep VEEG as well as an MRI. Both turned out "normal" ~ for me anyway. He reviewed my surgery report, from the opthamology tests. The test, taken back in 6/06, did show loss of peripheral vision on my right side.

My assistant advised me not to tell the epi about having the problem of bumping into walls and curbs, as the doctor would legally have to report it to DMV. I would then have to take a special class to see if I can pass, otherwise lose my license forever. That would have a severe effect on my visitation of the girls.

The only reason I see my girls so much now is because I drive 25 miles to them M, W, F, and weekends. My ex-hub isn't willing to bring them to visit me. He works 20 miles away from his house, in another direction. His screwy schedule requires me to completely available 5 days and nights per week. I had to set up Tues and Thu as my appointment days, which my ex has to work around.

I did admit bumping into walls, to my epi, but pretty much left it at that. I'll go back to see him in another 6 months. We'll see.
