Hurray! No disgusting pill aftertaste today! The weather here is fluctuating like crazy which means a lot of migraines for me. Just what I need. Monday night’s migraine had me vomiting for several hours of the wee morning. It really, really sucked. The only bright side: all the migraines since then have seemed almost pleasant [...]
I know I said I couldn’t post for awhile, but I happen to be filling time at the moment. So I thought I’d take the chance to tell you that my mouth tastes like I licked a dirty car-tire. The reason for this disgustingness is a mild side effect from a pill I took last [...]
I survived yesterday and all of the doctor’s appointments involved! (It was only two, but it felt like a lot) The gynaecologist appointment was basically just him asking me a lot of questions and looking at the results from the ultrasound. The ultrasound came back totally clear, which rules out a number of possible causes [...]
This morning I was 100% convinced that it was Tuesday. By this afternoon, I thought it was Thursday. Alas, still Monday… Methinks it is going to be a very long week… I haven’t been posting as often as I want to because I’ve been busy and exhausted. Either I’m not doing anything, or if I [...]
I’ve had a surprising number of people e-mail me to ask about the results of my ultrasound, so I’ll fill you in with what I know: nothing! Seriously though, I don’t know what the results were. Ultrasounds are done by ultrasound technicians, who are not allowed to tell you anything. They do the ultrasound and [...]
I made it through my test today. It was, as I suspected, negative, which means that I am not lactose intolerant. I had already established this fact, but you know doctors, they like the scientific results. So, while the test was pointless for me, I’ll give you a rundown in case anyone else needs this [...]
I’ve reached medical testing week. I only have two tests this week, but it seems like a lot. Tomorrow I have the lactose tolerance test, and Wednesday I’m getting an ultrasound. I have to admit I’m a little nervous about tomorrow’s test. I have to fast for 12 hours, and I do not do well [...]
I have no idea what is going on with me today – NONE. I woke up feeling a bit off, but went to class nonetheless. On the way there I noticed I was having some strange vision thing (you know when you close your eyes sometimes and can see the nerve endings firing? It was [...]
Went to the doctor today and talked some things through. I’m going in for an ultrasound next week (can you believe how soon that is?!? When she said she was booking one for me I thought to myself “So begins another nine month wait” but apparently not!) and will be talking to a gynecologist at [...]
I should start by mentioning that I’ve had a great morning, and that in the past day or two I’ve found ways to bring some more fun and relaxation into my day. So I have something to contrast against some of the struggles I’ve had lately (honestly, the changing season is driving me crazy – [...]
