If it's not one thing...

Gonna keep this short and sweet because I feel just the opposite. I've been feeling a little dizzy for about a week or so, and finally called the doctor. So I go in for some bloodwork, and pass smooth out in front of the hospital. That earned me a nice long visit in the ER. Couldn't even go pee by myself. They got my MRI from a few years back when this happened and did a CT scan on me. Looks like the hydrocephalus they found about 3 years ago is up to it's old tricks again. Couldn't tell much except that their was definitely pressure from fluid buildup on the brain stem (oh? so THAT is why I feel like my head is about to split wide open? Gee I would've never guessed...) and an "indeterminate area" of "something" on the right side of my brain. How comforting. So all I know for now is that I'm dizzy, I'm sleepy because of the meds they've got me on, and at the same time can't sleep because I'm edgy and have to pee every 30 minut

It's been HOW long??? Day-um.

Poor little bloggie sitting over here all alone. Wow things have changed muchly since the last post. I got the Cast From Hell removed, I never thought scratching a simple itch could be near-orgasmic. Good news is, the the foot has HEALED!!! Last x-rays showed complete fusion of the bones, which is what SHOULD have happened after the 2nd surgery from Dr. Hatchett (not his real name, duh). I've also left my job at the call center, there's only so much idiocy I can listen to in a year, and I found a better-paying, less stressful job anyways. So I guess it doesn't matter if I slip every now and then when I'm typing 90 wpm (yes, that's right) and slip in my name or my kiddo's name by accident. Just got back from an autism conference in Austin. My brain is about 3 times the size it was before with the sheer volume of information I tried to absorb. Thank God for the 200-lb notebook they gave us with copies of all the slides and room for notes! Helluva time lugging THAT
