Well unfortunately there haven't been any positive developments on the health front. I have visited just about every specialist in the valley, except the allusive Rheumatologist, and all reply with the same answer "it seems like it is Auto Immune" to which I inquire where to get treated and am given a shoulder shrug. Grrr...
The seizures are better some days and others not. The last three days they have been terrible, my spleen area is aching again, and I am so dizzy and out of it. I sleep constantly but still feel worn out. My right eye is swollen and I have terrible sharps pains in the right side of my head.
It's so frustrating for me to feel okay one day and another just not be able to function. To feel your limbs shaking and jolts all over and in my head is so scary. For someone who always prided herself on being quickwitted, hyper organized and on top of everything, feeling confused, forgetful, dizzy and just dumb is hard for me to swallow. Needless to say, emotionally this is starting to take a toll on me.
A week from tomorrow we are heading up to Scott and White in Temple to visit a neurologist there. I am glad to be going but am apprehensive about getting to see the specialists I really need to see. Everyone just keeps telling me that once I get there I will see the right people, but I am skeptical. But Carlos, Emma and I are making the trip and will see what comes out of it.
