2013 Update...already

So I know it's only been 2 months and really I should have written this 2 weeks ago but oh we'll what can you do! So since we've last talked I've had 1 massive migraine, 3 seizures, 1 ambulance ride to the hospital, 3 days in the hospital, and 2 batches of homemade soup!

So this isn't that abnormal from any other migraine I've had but I haven't had a seizure in 13 years! And that freaks me out! Luckily my bf was here to call an ambulance, but I don't remember the ride to the hospital; just waking up in ER with a catheter in having to go pee! Let it be known I did not pee until they removed the damn thing and from there I was taken to a room where I spent 3 days with the doctors increasing my meds and telling me I have some very rare condition. I don't even remember the name of it, because frankly I think it's a bunch of BS!

So now I'm increasing my keppra slowly and waiting to see my neurologist mid march. Then I'll ask her about my med dosage because I think it's way too high! Actually it's more than I took trying to commit suicide years back! I'm also going to ask her about medical marijuana because it helped with my nausea this time around. It's kind of ironic because all through high school and college I was very anti-weed when all my friends were experimenting g and now I'm the one asking a doctor about it!

There is more to come about my job prospects soon but this is enough for one night! Sweet dreams
