Second office visit at Bredesen clinic

 



Last week my wife and I went to a Holistic clinic in Lawrence.

Oct 6 Atma visit 


Yesterday I had my physical done by a Nurse Practioner.  

It was an extensive neurologic exam. 

I had a neurological exam done when I entered a trial at KUMCR done by a Neurologist MD.

I was impressed by the 90 minutes spent on me going over my history in detail and the physical exam.  I had trouble walking with my feet in tandem.  I have not been doing my balance exercise.

Nurse Practioner also repeated the MOCA test.

I had a perfect score in Feb 2020 link.

This time I missed one on trying to remember 5 objects.  I was not as sharp on some of the other items either but satisfactory.

I could name 30 words that start with B in one minute. I start out just naming as many words as I could quickly.  Then I had to think of words with vowels. 

Ball

Bell

Bite

Boat

The Nurse Practioner asked me if I used recreational drugs?

I said yes.  Viagra.


There was no bill at the end of the visit as I had already paid cash for a Bredesen program.

This includes 8 visits with the team and the blood work. 

I go in for the lab blood work on Monday. 

This was the main reason I went into this program.
