I heard folks were asking about me... you guys are too sweet. I have not been online much at all, but Eric just got me a laptop so I can work/email/surf from BED which is helping a LOT. Guess I should update but honestly this thing has drug on so long with me that I feel like no one wants to hear about it anymore so I just sort of withdraw, guess that's the wrong way to go about it. I just want to be able to say, "I'm better!" but I can't yet. We have another appt on Tuesday afternoon and we're hoping that this radiologist will think it's a good idea to go ahead and do the embolization SOON and we're sure praying it works. I can't wait to feel like myself again. This thing has got my blood flow so out of whack now that I'm having really bad episodes of vertigo and loud ringing in my ears, I'm scared to go anywhere with the kids by myself because I never know when it will hit and when it does I have to lie flat on my back till it goes away, then when it DOES go away I'm extremely nauseated after for a while, not fun either. They say it's from a sudden change in blood flow to my head, causing that feeling... ugh, how much can one bad vein valve DO to a body anyhow??? I'm also having to take Percoset every day now for the pain, usually make it till after lunch and then have to take one, can't stand it anymore... I wanted so bad not to have to do that, really hate pain pills ... it sure doesn't help the C either.
Anyway, have whined enough - I'm still here but I'm not doing well and figured who'd want to hear about that? I'll let you know if/WHEN (having faith here!) things change and we have some good news!
I WILL say that the family is doing well, the kids are enjoying spring being here and we're especially glad the time finally changed and it stays LIGHT OUT longer now (for those who follow daylight savings). More time to romp out in the backyard!!
Take care everybody, I'll try to do better about keeping up now that I have this new toy.

Take care,
