Upper Motor Neurone Disease... Gulf of Mexico Bleeding Arrested!
Today, as was yesterday, was busy at the out-patient clinic.
Upper Motor Neurone Disease was my diagnosis in a middle aged man who entered with a funny, unsteady gait. Too bad, for Upper Motor Neurone Disease is often a progressive disorder of nerve tissue rendering the patient difficulty in taking control of his voluntary muscles - actions like walking, then becomes unsteady with Upper Motor Neurone disease.
He had the typical hyper-reflexia - his knee jerk was so obvious - and slur to his speech seen in most Upper Motor Neurone Diseased patients, and sad as it sounds, I was not able to do much for him.
... And, the bleeding is arrested in the Gulf of Mexico!
