Quick Update:
Yeah... I know. I have this blog thing that I've been neglecting. It's not so much that I don't have anything to write about because, BOY HOWDY do I have all kinds of material. My life is anything but boring. I've simply had no motivation to be here. Where I am going about my regular, crazy-hectic life per usual, I'm really having to push myself through it. My health has been taking a nose dive as of the last couple of months and I've been putting everything I have into fixing it. I'm seeing new doctors, not the least of whom is a Psychiatrist. My first time ever dabbling in the mental health maintenance.
Without getting too involved: I'm a straight-up bad-ass when it comes to battling what it's like to live with a chronic illness. It's in my nature to be so determined to have a life around it. But the last few months or so, the instinct to do so has lessened and I'm now having to make a daily conscious decision to push my body through each day. It's mentally and emotionally exhausting. Hence, throwing in the white towel and visiting with a Psychiatrist. I really don't have anything to say about him yet as we've only met once so far. And long story short, the medication we're trying isn't helping so much as it's making me more sick. Really sick. So yeah... that's where I'm at right now: Somewhat frustrated and generally feeling like I've been run over by a dump truck.
On the positive though, we are working toward a solution (or multiple solutions for that matter). It's just a long battle with few to no immediate results. It's not leaving me with much time to update here. But I am here. I'm still kicking. Illness(es) aside, life is most excellent.
