Well
it is Sunday and I have posted the last week that was post, so now I
am starting another week that was post.
Another hot
day, Kathy arrived around 10ish and wanted 2 soft boiled eggs and an
ice cream cone before going over to see dad.
Dad was in
bed when we arrived and stayed in bed the whole time we were there.
Kathy & Summer went into see him, she said dad didn't know who
she was.
Monday saw
dad have another fall when he was walking into the kitchen for
breakfast. He was ok just took some skin off. Natasha received
another parking ticket in the mail for stopping in the mail zone for
Leo to jump out and post some letters for me.
Tuesday is
another hot day.
Wednesday
started out cool and wet but ended up hot and sticky all I did was go
to my aqua class.
Thursday
was a busier day, Tim and I went out for lunch after which I had a
lay down and then it was time to head over to the hospital for my
appointment with the neurologist Tom Wellings to get the results to
my MRI it was normal and no further action required. I also asked
about my headaches he wants me to change one of my medications, this
means going down in strength of one medication till I come off it
and starting the new one at a low dosage increasing to I reach full
strength.
This also
means that there will be a time when I become more emotional.
People may
remember last December I had a mini breakdown and was super emotional
because I had run out of one of my depression medications, well the
medication I have to come off is the same medication I had run out of
back then.
Friday
didn't start out great, it was overcast and wet, Natasha slept in and
I dropped and broke a container that held my face powder that used to
belong to my great-aunt. I didn't get upset over it because as I said
to Tasha getting upset isn't going to change anything or un-break it.
Dad hasn't
been great either he had a slight fever and because of the weather
dad wasn't able to leave the house.
On Saturday
I woke up feeling like shit, Tim had hoped to put up the new shed but
it is raining, so not going to happen this weekend.
Hang in there on the med change. Just tell yourself that it doesn't get to beat you. The body can lie to you, but you know the truth.
ReplyDeleteI'm very sorry to hear of your tribulations. The change in medication can easily be one of the very hardest segments of your life; intellectually, you know what's wrong, but that knowledge won't fix it. Eventually the new medication will take effect and you'll be back to normal.
ReplyDeleteChris......Yeah I know
ReplyDeleteMad Jack....So true I am hoping everything will work out
Some adjustment takes time to get used to. Hope you will be feeling better soon.
