Hey all! Okay. So I really just need to tell you all this so you'll know what's going on right now. I don't want you to get mad that I haven't been responding to many posts. I love to make long responses. And I really like talking with you guys. I just haven't felt right lately. I've given a brief explanation but here's a whole one. Okay: So, my headaches had been getting a lot better. My neurologist had added a second medicine to try to prevent them (b/c i get headaches every day plus i get migraines). So my pain was finally starting to be like only a 4 (1-10 pain scale) most days of the week, which was WONDERFUL!! It was like Heaven. I am still thankful for that. Then, I got a sinus infection that i'm almost done w/antibiotics for. But like since the middle of that, i started getting my wonderful old headaches again 6-9 pain EVERY DAY. And it's not just pain from my sinuses. Plus, I"m nauseous and SO tired it's not even funny. Well..actually, maybe it is Anyhow, I guess I'm just frustrated right now perhaps cause I was finally like feeling significantly better and then BAM..i've really backtracked. Like...maybe it's cause I haven't had a day w/o a headache since August '03 and before then I've had headaches most days of the week since 8th grade. everything just got worse this past august! Anyhow, it's better to have a taste of relief and then agony again than having no relief at all it's just frustrating. Plus, I SO wanted to be able to show my neurologist progress cause she's SO nice and caring and understanding. And I don't want her to feel badly. I wish I could just lie and say i was better..but then she wouldn't be able to help me. Plus, last time when i said i was okay when i wasn't feeling well, she was like "okay?" Anyhow...I mean, she told me it's a roller coaster and there are good days and bad days...I just wish I could have better news to bring (my appt is on tues.) Cause right now...i feel awful..headache, nauseous, tired, it's just frustrating. I was looking forward to being able to going to Senior Picnic and now I feel like I did a while back when I was pretty bad. I'm sorry for complaining guys, I just wanted to give you background info, kinda. And I hope this doesn't sound too negative or anything. Like right now there's a really pretty flower outside and I was thinking, if I could be a flower petal (or pollen, as allyou allergic people know), I could travel around the world. That'd be cool! Anyhow, just had to let you guys know! Any advice on what to do at my appointment/how i should tell my dr. w/o making her feel bad ( i mean..i know she wouldn't show it but..) but to get me feeling better? Any other advice?! Thanks guys! Guess what?! my parents have been gardening in our front and back yards and it all looks so pretty and awesome!!!!! Hooray!
