Elaine, I'm so sorry! I don't know what is going on with me exactly, but my Neuro stuff goes nuts as I wean off of my prednisone.

I am fine right now with driving, but last year, I didn't drive for almost the entire year. I couldn't keep my foot on either of the peddles without them "jumping" off. I stopped when I almost wrecked because I missed the break a few times.

I also felt cognitively inept. I was not oriented enough to drive. I hope this isn't what's going on with you and it's just a simple mix up, but you have enough going on that warrants looking into what lighthouse has suggested. Please keep us posted. Praying for you.

Lighthouse, thank you for this info! I am so afraid of losing the freedom of driving again! I never knew something like this existed! Bless your heart!

Goodness, Lighthouse ANGEL!

What wonderful information.  I book marked the site.

And there is a branch near me right in Raleigh, too.

So if that referral nurse would just call and get me started on an evaluation.

I just want to know if my PN warrants adaptations for the car, or if I just had a stupid mistake moment.

(don't you hate those????)

Anyway, it is very hard to have the driving process at risk, for sure.

but even with hand controls, if I'm making mistakes, that isn't good.

Oh well, time will tell.

Hugs to you all.
