6/14


So much has been happening so far this year. Finally getting medical answers for myself! I've been having lots of issues with my migraines, exhaustion, weight gain and moodiness for awhile. Went in for a sleep study and found out one of the problems. I figured I had sleep apnea (which I have a slight case of) BUT the Doctor called me (didn't know they still made personal calls) and told me he needs to get my permission to contact my insurance company ASAP since my sleep study came back with my oxygen levels while I'm sleeping down in the 70 percentile. It should be at the VERY least 92%. This explains a whole lot! I am now waiting to hear from the insurance company on if they will do an oxygen machine study for me to see if this helps (I sure hope it does!). If my oxygen stays like it has been a lot of health issues will begin happening. Thank God I have a Doctor who looked past the sleep apnea test results!!

Injections Part 2

7 injections??? NOPE!!! Try 2, yes two, FULL BOTTLES of Botox! Holy Shit! Injected not just in my neck but also throughout my scalp, shoulders, forehead and hairline. AND I get to go back for more in 5 weeks! OWWWWWWWIEEEEE

I also now have an appointment for an initial interview for sleep apnea. The neurologist is positive I have it and she is sending me to a specialist who will check me out and then make an appointment for a sleep study.

Injections

Had a hard time sleeping last night due to my anxiety. I am having injections in my neck today for the migraines and the pain caused by my Cervical Dystonia. From what I have read they will be injectioning 7 shots of Botulinum Toxin (Botox) into the muscle close to my spinal cord and brain. Im praying the Doctor hasn't had to much caffine and doesn't have the shakes! I will be giving Desi extra hugs and kisses this morning and praying like crazy until the appointment is over. It will be worth it in the end when all the pain is gone! Just wish sometimes I was still on anxiety medication or had a man to whisper in my ear that it will be ok.

Cannot get this song outta my head!!!

Fell asleep with it playing in my mind and woke up singing it haha. Adele is the BOMB!

Car Accident

Had a bit of a car accident this week. A truck in front of me had a huge load of scrap metal in the back of his pickup. His tie down broke loose and even with swerving and slamming on the brakes I still got hit and drove over a bunch. Insurance adjuster is coming tomorrow to give an estimate for my car. Sucks the thing only has 2000 miles on it! My back went into spasm and having a hard time getting it to calm down so ended up at the Doctor who said it is very typical and put me on some medications, sadly I can't drive on them so all day long Im in pain trying to work. And of course I am working 20 hours of overtime this week. I could use a good massage!

Kangarooooooo

Had a great weekend with Desi, Grandma, Brenda and the kangaroos. Grandma and Brenda had never been to the kangaroo farm which made it extra extra fun. So thankful that they rain held off for our tour and we got to hold a baby roo and see a baby in the momma's pouch!

 At the very bottom corner you can see a couple eyes peeking our of the pouch.

3/2

Desi and I got our pictures done. They turned out amazing! Spent way more than I planned but since it has been a long time since we had any done together I figure it was worth it. My dining room wall now has 6 8x10s of us and it looks beautiful! After we went to the spagetti factory and ate in the trolley. What a great day!
