Seeing Donna from Mental Health today.

PT @ Wake Med.

I've lost over 20 pounds since July 05, 2005 and I'm on Steroids! Most people gain weight.

Doctor's Notes:

Impression: Weight 236. Gait is stable with a walker, weaker on left leg, with hip flexion and dorisiflexion 4/5. Grip weak bilaterally, 14 kg on the left and 10-11 on the right, interossei 4/5. Full-strength eye closure, check puffing, deltoids.

CIDP continues to be fairly stable with a combination of high-dose Prednisone since early July, and IV Ig started in April. Continue 2x month as long as it is available, continue Prednisone. Ok return to work part-time with wheelchair, and ramp for home use. Follow-up one month.
