I've debated about putting this out here. But I need to get it off my mind and out of my head.
I went to the eye doctor tuesday to have my perscription updated since mines weak and the depot replaces glasses once a year and i figured this is the time to do it. Well as some of you may know my peripheral vision is going on my left side of my left eye. It's alright though not a biggie, it's been that way for quite sometime, and i've learned to adapt.
the eye doctor did a vision field test and was like 'hmm we're going to do it again' so i did.. and then she was like 'hmm you really dont see that area' and i said no so she sent me to an optomologist who did another set of tests and they informed me that my opticnerve is swelling.
well that seemed ok and dandy until he started to ask about a family history of ms. and then he flat out told me that the symptoms i'm displaying combined with being clumsy and falling or tripping often indicate i may have ms.
i went back wednesday for some other tests and dragged dad along with me this time because well i was still a mess. and the doctor didnt rule out ms, but sugested that this seems to be more of a petuitary gland tumor or a tumor pressing on it. so i have to have an mri next week.
tuesday i called steve and he left work to come hang out with me. it was nice being able to have someone who cared about me without their own agenda for once.
so inventory was wednesday and yesterday and i spent 2-11 in the store then had to be back in for 5-2 needless to say i've been tired.
and yesterday i took a nap when i got home. my mother apparently chalked this up to my being stressed about the eye thing. but it was really just because i've spent nearly 24 hours on my feet doing inventory. i woke up for dinner and went to eat with the family and she got her usual phone call that ruins my appetite because she's a fucking bitch and talks right thru the meal. so without even thinking she starts running her fucking mouth to a stranger i dont know or like about how oh staceys had a long week she went tot he eye doctor. and i flipped out. i screamed for ten solid minutes about how i dont need my shit spread around her rumor mill.
and honestly i didnt want to put it out there but i figured if my mother can run her mouth to strangers my friends should know what i'm up against and why i'm not myself. so there it is, staceys new life changing event.
