Hey all. Look at me….writing a note to you all and everything \ud83d\ude42 Wanted to give you all an update on how things are going and what the plans are for this weekend.<\/p>\n
1) I know alot of you have been concerned about me and I really appreicate it. I also appologize for making you worry. Well…I told you that Tuesday I went to see a Neurologist and that his decision was to take me off all meds except for an antidepressant that would take effect in two to three weeks. As reluctant as I was to go along with that plan I did try. Wednesday I tried all day not to take anything. I drove down to Tat’s, got Daddy and we went to Flagg’s to start planning our new LARP. Around 8:30pm that night things were getting to hard to handle and I caved and took 2 ibuprophen. I had an 8 out of 10. By 9:30 I was crying and at about a 10. By 11:30 I had thrown up everything I’d consumed that day and told Daddy I needed to go to the E.R. This was not a light decision for me. Daddy as very busy with the LARP and helping fix a computer and I didn’t want to take him away from it. I also didn’t want to simply wimp out of being able to do what was suggested to me. But I couldn’t take it anymore. We got to the E.R. near home around 1am. I sat there (trying not to cry with a 15 out of 10 ) for 2 and change hours before they could see me. They finally agreed to give me Demerol but told me that that was my last dose. If I had to come back I’d have to try something else since it’s highly addictive. By 5am I was at home and finally feeling like a normal human being.<\/p>\n
The next morning, I climbed my way to consciousness and called my Dr and asked what he thought I should do rather then go the the E.R. His answer: Sorry…can’t give you anything…go back if you have to. Needless to say this did not go over well with either me, Tat, or Daddy. I had made a backup appointment for Friday with a different neurologist and we decided that I would try them and get a second opinion. I sat out of Karate class and watched it with a detatched brain. Today..we went to see the other Dr. They are putting me on Prednisone (sp?) for a week to (hopefully) stop the cycle. After that I’m getting an MRI and we will see about getting me on a preventative. They were extremely nice and very willing to help. To the point of telling me to call them if I needed to and they would call me in something for the pain. Over all…a great experience. So…I started the pills and we’ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n
2) As for this weekend: We are all at Tat’s. Tomorrow we’ll be hanging out and might go to a movie. I’m cooking Roast for them. (Tat and Daddy are under the impression it is the best stuff on the planet HEHE). Sunday we are going to Tat’s grandma’s and will have dinner with them. So…there ya go. Fun!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
