NEUROLOGIST TODAY

went to neurologist today. in a nutshell heres the appt.




1. i need to get completely OFF percoset. i am addicted to percoset which means that my body is no longer producing the 'pain relieving' chemicals that it normally would.



2. i am having "rebound headaches". meaning that because of the percoset, a normal person would have a headache, take a pain medicine, and the headache wouldnt come back. however in my case, the percoset wears off in 4-6 hours, and the headache comes back because my body is craving the medicine.



3. he attempted to give me trigger point injections in my neck and shoulder , at which he did one and then i very carefully moved away from him and didnt allow him to touch me again....at which point he was quite upset, cause he thinks im a crackhead whos addicted to percoset and doesnt want to do anything else but take the pills....which he actually said...well maybe he didnt say i was a crackhead...but he did in not so many words....



4. i was sent home with a prescription for lyrica to take daily to try and relieve the pain from my neck and shoulder, and two steroidal creams for the pain....



5. i am also scheduled for physical therapy to make my neck and shoulder muscles stronger....



6. i have been instructed to reduce the stress in my life....hahahahahahahahaha thats funny!



7. i am scheduled to go back to him in three months. at which point i should be completely weaned from the percoset....



so that was my appointment...my shoulder hurts like a *&^%^$ so i am going to go attempt to rest before my meeting at school with financial aid which i am sure will give me a headache...and then class tonight....thats about it for now

THE BESSSSST DAY EVER

today was a phenomonal day! anthony and i got up as soon as we heard mackenzie (ugh 8am is too early for mama) and we got dressed (had all our clothes laid out last night) and headed out to the museum. mondays its free for milwaukee county residents with a picture id....so we got there around 845am. it was a little busy but not super-busy so yay! haha....we had a great time, we were there actually almost 3 hours, and we only did ONE floor !!! haha insane! but it was the MOST AWESOME time cause mama actually got to READ and LOOK at the exhibits while daddy was dragged around relentlessly with mackenzie !! awesome!!! heres just a sample of the pictures that i got to take....and you know there are some with mack in...not just the exhibits, although i have to say the exhibits were VERY interesting! :) thanks you to my hubby!
