Update!

Hey! I haven't really been posting because I thought things were going well....haha yeah as if. I tend to not do things how I'm supposed to do them. For example you aren't supposed to faint three weeks post spine surgery, or fall in the shower (twice) within a few days of fainting, and last but not least you aren't supposed to be getting really bad headaches (that aren't POTS related) every time you sit up. That last one is a symptom of a spinal fluid leak, we're keeping our fingers crossed that I don't have one. But I'm having a lot of the symptoms of one so for now I'm laying flat in bed and drinking caffeine. That's what you do if you have a leak. I don't know if I do have one, but if I do I'm well.... let's just say it'll be a big problem. The way to find out is an MRI, but right now we don't want to have to move me other then when I absolutely have to. My neurosurgeon and his team just got back from a mission trip to Guatemala so they're kind of crazy over there. We're going to call them tomorrow to see if they have any suggestions for what we should do, or if they think it's something else and what we should do for that! Here's to hoping I start feeling better soon and that my weird symptoms all go away soon!

  1. Well my house is still decorated for Halloween so if you missed it you can come over here and I will dress up just for you! Lol. I even have a talking skeleton who will greet you at the door. Halloween is my favorite holiday. I would keep my house haunted all year long if I didn't think my student's parents might start thinking I'm a little creepy. Lol.

  2. Caffeine and laying flat on your back don't mix! No wonder you want to run a mile!
