Today is the 75th day of taking a full dose of Azilect and the 34th day on a full dose of Pramipexole.
There has not been much to blog about lately. I watched a few recent videos of my son and I playing on the beach and I noticed that while my right arm is no longer glued to my side, it is not swinging naturally. At my next appointment, or when it is time for a refill, I will ask my doctor to change my script from .75mg to 1mg of Pramipexole.
Last Wednesday, October 14, I experienced my first "off episode." This is when, for whatever reason, your medication just stops working. It can be caused by how much you did or did not eat, the half life of the medication and many other reasons. It was a bit scary, but like most things in life, it quickly passed.
I finally had my Asstitive Technology (AT) session on Friday, October 16th. I learned several new commands for the Dragon software package. The "grid" command is very cool. The OT also taught me about click lock, which will make it easier for me to drag and drop documents. She (OT) recommended a better mouse and microphone, which they will get for me at work.
I also learned that it is fine for me to use the mouse with my left hand. Everyone else told me that my right hand would get worse if I did not use it. It turns out that this is not true. I am going to have to reprogram the mouse, but that does not seem like it will be too challenging.
That is all for now.
