I have not been on here for a month or two. Hope everyone's time has not been too difficult. I did have a PET scan which showed three area's affected by Lewy Body.
So with that, other testing and after being seen by the neurologist for awhile and him getting to know me it's most probable that I have LBD. I've been really having a problem with my blood pressure/heart rate.
Are there any others on here that have LBD an problems with this? Hope everyone's having a good evening!

Dear Frustrated,
Welcome back! I am sorry about your diagnosis. It all sucks!
There are people on the boards with LBD and some who have taken care of LO's with LBD.
I'm sure they will be posting soon.
Just wanted to say hello and wish you good luck.
Would you like to share more of your story? We're all good listeners.
Peace and Hope,
Lisa

Thank-you Lisa428 and Iris L.
You could not be any more correct Lisa428 when you say "it all sucks". The roller coster of symptoms and emotions are terrible. Hope everyone enjoys their day!

Lorene, try Mimi's suggestion about putting Lewy Body in your subject line on this board and on the other boards.
Are you getting enough sleep?
