If You Can Find Me
Fantastic news! I don’t have glaucoma… which was a serious concern when looking at how high the pressure was in both eyes. Optic nerve looks good too. No damage, thank goodness! Weird news! For the first time in over a decade, I’m getting a new pair of glasses that I can use. The most recent Continue reading

Calling In Backup
I’ve been trying to avoid addressing this, but since my life a pretty open book, I might as well note it as well… I’ve been pretty transparent about problems involving my health, but every time I hear something new, I get more frustrated. I was scheduled to see a neurologist to figure out why I Continue reading

Muted Day
it’s been very quiet today. Mostly because I slept most of the day. I think I slept for about twelve hours. I have to be willing to acknowledge this… My recovery from whatever happened monday evening is taking longer than I thought it would. Of course if we’re honest all things consider I am a Continue reading

A Nose In Need Deserves Puffs Indeed
Finally starting to feel normal again. I took the new medication my doctor gave me… and proceeded to lose what little mind I have. Vision was worse than usual. My balance problems were far worse. My voice became extra raspy. This medication dried me out so much that I wanted to cry. My lips were Continue reading

Tonight, I’m going to attempt to do a top to bottom clean. I’m pretty sure that I have to begin with the Continue reading

I Have NO Regrets
This morning, I struggled to both move and bend my knee. Even now, so late at night, my left knee is protesting too much movement. The pile of clean clothes that need to be put in the closet is about two feet high and well over five feet long. I’m hopeful that in the AM, Continue reading

I Tried Uploading Using A Random Gen…
My hip is still trying to stage its own revolt. So let’s get a bit of clarity. I had two appointments for vastly different doctors yesterday. Psychiatry and PT. On the way to and from the first, I started having some issues with one of my hips. At the second, I was given exercises after Continue reading

Standby
Body is hurting a lot less tonight, which is very good. Due to the lack of a working hot water tank, my showers are very icy. Tomorrow, I will be trying to just jump under the water shortly after its on. I will probably end up yelping very loudly, but it must be done. I Continue reading
