Walking steadiness is still declining

It’s frustrating. I’m scheduled to see my third orthopedic doctor next week. The surgery only brought me more pain. The second doctor told me to deal with it so I’m hoping this new guy will help.
So food is weird now

When I first got home from the hospital, I had to be around food again. I had to make it, I had to watch other people eat it. Food that I love eating, food that smelled so very delicious. I knew I couldn’t have it. It’s clear liquids for me for the first two weeks […]
Surgery was done and now I’m back home

I got my Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileostomy with Sleeve gastrectomy on Monday. Everything went fine with the surgery. I made everyone aware that I had issues with pain meds (I require more because I metabolize them very quickly and they don’t last as long) and anesthesia (I wake up during my surgeries) so everyone seemed to […]
The surgery date has been set

I know that it’s been a while since I’ve written any updates. I just had my pre-op appointment on Friday and the surgery date has been set for my bariatric surgery. The big day is February 27th @ 10:45am. I can’t believe we are weeks away at this point. Exactly two weeks today in fact. […]
Working for what you want

I got a phone call yesterday from my bariatric office. I’m scheduled for surgery at the end of February. I can’t believe the time is finally here. I’ve been anticipating this so much and looking so forward to it. I’ve cut back on my coffee and come February 1st I’ll quit caffeine altogether. I guess […]
Post-sickness

I don’t know what I picked up but I picked up something, somewhere. I was starting to cough on Christmas Eve, I didn’t think much of it, just a cough. I’ve been coughing for 4 solid months with one thing or another. This one however, progressed until it was a really wet and deep cough. […]
Food aversion therapy today

Zahkya has her first occupational therapy appointment today for her food aversion problem. She still won’t try new foods and she still has major sensory issues with her mouth. I have to take foods that she will eat and also take foods that I want her to eat. I don’t have very many of those […]
Hematology Appointment

I had my hematology appointment yesterday. It went well. He saw my history of being iron deficient and ordered more bloodwork to be done. Those results came back rather fast. I was off on 5 out of the 6 tests ordered. They called me shortly after saying that I needed iron infusions and that they […]
Migraine Problems

Yesterday my migraine held on tight and refuse to leave me. I was free of appointments and tasks other than taking Tristyn to school and watching Zahkya here at home. I pretty much stayed in bed most of the morning with my puke bucket and a pillow over my head. This migraine was unrelenting and […]
Mom life is a hard life

I woke up yesterday with a lot of sinus pressure and a nagging throbbing in my right temple. That’s where all my headaches are, the same place every time. To compound that, I had a really stiff neck too. I knew I had a giant day ahead of me so I tried to ignore the […]
