Helllooo there!
Well, things have been verrry busy here. The medication trials of baclofen and clonazepam didnt work out, and it turns out that I don't have either dystonia or HSP. Sooo, the feeling is...it could be cerebral palsy resulting from my difficult birth, which would make sense given that thats where they think the autism comes from. Ive got a whole bunch of referrals coming up too - speech and language and ENT for my throat, physio, possibly back to orthopaedics for my shoulder and perhaps an operation on my foot, and of course back to see my neuro in June.
As far as the depression goes, it seems to have lifted a bit honestly and Ive been able to cut down my meds (at least for the moment). I think the diagnosis of autism has helped immensely - I know what the context is for the depression now, and that is useful. Also, I think being stuck on having a career in what I studied at MSc level (computer science) was getting me down and making me continually stressed, in part because it wasnt working but equally because its not what I really want.
So! Good things, mostly! I apologise for not being around, but my headspace has been taken up with a lot of things here. Hopefully I will be able to be around more, and I hope that everyone is doing well.
Love and light, everyone.
