Dr. Timothy West is an amazing Neurologist who specializes in MS and neuroimmunology .
He also works at the "Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health" here in Las Vegas. His bed side manner for his patients & his understanding of the pain we endure is incredible. The fact that he completely understands that each patients suffers differently, the fact that although we may look beautiful on the outside, yet he can look at our blood work and scans and see that we are truly sick, it amazes me. Because for 6 years of my life, I was brushed off from doctor to doctor and never got the treatment I needed or deserved. When I saw him, he believed me and he introduced me to the best Rheumatologist in Nevada! And together, He and Dr. Ewa Olech are an outstanding team who genuinely care about my well being.
Today we reviewed my MRI and MRA's. The MRA's showed no problems at all :-) YAY!!!!
As for the MRI's -- We found lesions. Nothing to worry about yet. It is something that we now have to watch. Something that now has to be monitored and he explained to me what to tell the emergency room IF if were to happen so that I would get the right treatment when admitted. This is the most proactive team of doctors and to be proactive with Lupus is the only way to stay alive and beat it!
