Thanks Bex, yes it is a relief to finally know and also to have some concrete evidence for your GP to prove your not just a psycho, but coming to terms with a permenant condition is something I never thought of, so I suppose that will take time and a lot of courage and to think that means taking away othet independant things like driving ect. I know i shouldnt think too far into the future and learn to tke each day as it comes, but I still for a few seconds each morning when I wake think Im still the same old me, then reality sinks in. Times a healer, I hope so. Hugs Tracy
