We are pleased to share the following patient success story. Donna Fuselier has a significant past medical history including chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, right common peroneal neuropathy, and foot drop. She was diagnosed with CIDP in early 2024. Initially, her symptoms improved with IVIG injections but her treatment was interrupted, leading to progressive worsening of symptoms which required hospitalization. She has also been on high-dose steroids which have had side effects such as lower extremity edema and hypertension. She continued on steroids, IVIG, and electrolyte repletion. Due to functional decline with bilateral lower extremity weakness, inability to lift her legs against gravity, and a need for assistance with transfers and mobility, she was then transferred to PAM Health Beaumont. Mrs. Fuselier spent 10 days in rehab with intensive PT and OT for neuromuscular re-education, gait training, ADL training, strengthening, and energy conservation techniques to prepare her to return to work. Her beaming smile radiates of all her accomplishments! Her foot drop has resolved, and she is now ambulating independently 150ft with a rolling walker for best support. Upon discharge, she will continue her recovery in our outpatient programs. We wish you well, Mrs. Fuselier!

Adjusting to the major life changes brought on by a traumatic illness or injury – like loss of independence or inability to do activities you once could - takes a mental toll. During recovery, it’s important to prioritize the mental and emotional aspects of healing and address mental health concerns when they arise. PAM Health’s approach to care centers both your physical and mental health during your healing journey.
