Weekly check up

So was made it to my physical therapy this morning knowing that right afterwards I had my check up with nurse practitioner, but when I got there they decided it would be best to see her before that way she could see how the new medication was affecting me if it was. Either way we went she decided to start me back on tizanadine every 2 hours, occupational therapy, aquatic therapy, and message therapy. HA there is only so much that can be done in three day I guess we are going to have to find a way to stay either longer or figure out a way to make it all the things I've got to do.

Now I've got to see her every week for a check up until my doctor appointment with my neuro. YAY! Well not really if you didn't catch my sarcasm... I've got this crazy idea that maybe I need a break. I need to spend a lot of time on my homework and studies, and staying in San Antonio doing all these things keeps me away from all of it. I constantly have to explain to my teachers why my assignments are late or why I can't take a certain test and a certain time. I mean I shouldn't be new to me I've done it for years but this time till things settle I think it's best if I take things slow.

Honestly I really don't know what it is I should do. I am excited though to go back to occupational therapy with my otIt should be fun lol. If anyone knows me better it's her well and my pt.

SOOOOO next week starts with:

Monday - Pt with the pt tech. at 3:00pm

Tuesday - Ot with the ot lol at 7:30am (really do they no understand I'm not a morning person)

Pt with the pt tech again at 9:00am

Treatment at the hospital

Wednesday - Weekly check up with the nurse practitioner

Pt again with the pt tech at 9:00 am (again with the morning thing)

YAY for weekly schedules... by the way when I'm done with that I've got six assignments due! And two test waiting for me! Oh geez I should have realized this was going to happen.

    Vanessa,

    I was diagnosed with SPS last year (I just turn 31) and I came across your blog. I wonder how you are doing now? You no longer write on your blog and I can tell you my experience with SPS if you are still looking for answers (well, you might know more than me but I'm very determined to figure out the best course of action and I know my case is probably very different than yours).

      Yeah I've kinda been distracted with stuff that has come up. I have new Doctors, New Disorders, and just in gerneral New Problems. I mean I still have Stiff Person Syndrome I've just had other things going on as well which had put me on hold from writing, but don't worry I'm back in fact I've starting writing a book don't get to excited I mean I'm a 24 year old and it's mostly what you've read and with the help of a friend I've been able to get down two chapters. Not much but it's something. And it's also something else if it even gets finished or published.

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 ...
