Holy Crap, Great news. Is Alzheimer's misdiagnosed often. I was taking Pain Pills for about a year straight awhile back. When I finally quit taking them regularly it was waking up after a long comma.
All though necessary in a lot of cases. Doctors these days seem to hand out Narcotics like free candy. Hope all go's well for you here on out.
