Tomorrows the day!

Tomorrows the day I go visit with my old pt dude. He was the first to explain the baclofen pump to me and explain what it was and what it could potentially help. Although since no one really knew what it was I had no doctor really wanted to touch on the subject. I'm super excited to visit, but scared of what they are going to say. See these are the guys my PCP want me to go back to their faculty, since the pt director running my case back at the other place left. My doctor has been trying to convince me to to back.

See don't get me wrong I miss the old pt dude, funny ot lady, and most of all the pt director, because she pushed me to do so much more and not allow the pain to get the best of me. She reminded how sometimes no pain meant no gain, and needed to over come the fears of falling, because no matter what she was always there to pick me right up.

I guess that's why I like the place I'm at because I felt the same way. She was all three of them at once:

Pt dude- advocated for what was best and tried to figure out what he could do to make things better. Till this day he is still doing that helping me figure out if the pump is the right thing.

Ot lady- always telling me funny stories and being silly that no matter how bad of a day you where having you always knew how to get you to smile. She also showed me how to cope with situation that I couldn't control.

And last but not least the pt director like explained before who helped push through till I finally did it walk again.

See the director that left the place I am now does all those things and she's just one person. Which is quite amazing if u ask me.

So back to tomorrow I'm going to get information about the pump and see if its right for me. Although the director that left kind of beat him to the punch with some information. LOL sorry dude should have called you sooner although you do know how my doctor was and still is.

Back to school check up or so I thought!

I started to get ready for school, which meant having to see all my Docs. before school starts to make sure I have the OK! PCP was first... Everything looked good heart rate a little high, but she said nothing to worry about. Endocrinologist was second... Blood work came out so so... sugar where getting better, but not great! Allergist came in third... Lung where OK she wanted to start me a new medication called Zolar for my allergies and to improve my lung function. Exam when OK just with my heart rate going crazy again! She took a note of it and sent it to my PCP. Then Last came my neuro... Spasms were OK kinda... medication was starting to work better so she gave me the all clear! Finally got registered for school and got ready for a long semester... Who would have though long would be the understatement of the year. Once school started I had the regular mumbo jumbo about me being and getting sick which got straighten out with one phone or letter cant remember from my PCP. Classes ...

Let’s try this one more time!

Let’s try this again... I’m going to try to do a post each week or month at least. That’s my goal!!! Not going to lie a bit long... Last month I went to the neurologist, and got news that I could be having either be having a flare up or having a relapse. For the past couple of months I had been feeling off with more spasms and pain the usual. I can usually take pain pretty good by now, but there were days I just couldn’t move felt frozen in my own body. So after New Year I had IVIG scheduled for Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday. Well during the weekend I had a party to attend out of town. Honestly I don’t think I did much during the party but it did run late. Both days I felt fine no problem with IVIG side effects nothing, but then came Monday first of all I had to wake up early to go get blood drawn. When I went in I asked for I don’t know how to explain it. You know when they tell you that you know your body the best I just had this feeling to ask them to run my GAD levels ...
