I’ve been quiet lately. Not much has been going on. I started to write a couple of posts but never finished for one reason or another. I have never wanted to force my writing.
I‘ve been up since 5:00am. Not because I can’t sleep. I’m sure if I tried I could fall back asleep. I’m tired. I’ll need a nap later today or tomorrow. But right now I just can’t sleep.
My last brain mri showed a spot we had been watching. It was a little more prominent. My scan went to the brain board and with their recommendation we agreed to move up my scan from three months to two months. Two months would have brought us to March.
Fast forward (or rewind) to last saturday. I had enough I couldn’t handle the pain anymore. I called my sisters and mom for help. After talking it over with bryan and them a plan was made. bryan handled the birthday festivities and my mom and sister took me to the er. A migraine cocktail and I was good as new. they did a ct scan as a precaution.
The ct came back with a new to the image spot. A spot that wasn’t on my last imaging (which was an mri not a ct scan). I don’t remember the last time I had a ct of my brain to be honest. The radiologist suggested a MRI to ensure that we are comparing apples to apples and not apples to oranges.
So here I am Saturday am up and waiting for an MRI that I am sure will say all is normal but panicking because I am never 100% sure. Trying to stay calm bc if it is something they caught it super early (that’s the point of all these scans,right?). But scared of what my treatment options will be. Trying not to panic over the headache I still have, the fact that my eye is sore and my vision is weird, or the feeling that I‘ve been wearing a ponytail for far too long (i know what your thinking just take the ponytail out…my hair isn’t up!).
I doubt I’ll have results back before Monday. That makes for a long weekend. But tonight I’ll help at a fundraiser for town basketball. And tomorrow I’ll enjoy the snow by doing school work. Monday I’ll wait for a call from Dr Piper.
Wish me luck. 🍀
