Waves - still alive

[tudorpot]

Still alive, struggling with pain and depression. Latest doctor visit not helpful as she's referred me to a pain clinic. Why didn't she do this 6 weeks ago? Didn't help that appt was at 11:45, but I wasn't seen til 1:45. I understand delays happen, but it would have been nice to know so I could feed parking meter. Thus $30 parking ticket

Ugh, to doctor, parking tickets, and to pain and depression. *huge hugs*

I'm so happy the candles worked out well and that the SCA project has been coming along, and yay for new roof! *more hugs* Hang in there, darling.

Does that mean they've given up on solving the causes of the pain?

[tudorpot]

I don't know. If it is trigeminal neuraligia, treatment of choice is brain surgery. Don't want a hole in my head if that isn't the diagnosis. Defining the diagnosis is the hard part. No test that is reliable. Due to all my head problems since 2012, it's difficult to pick apart what is causing the pain.

Many gentle hugs.

You're amazing. I have no idea how you manage to do as much as you do, given the pain you are in.

Thanks dear. I'm frustrated by the huge gap between what I used to be able to do and what is possible now.

Thanks dear. How is your mum doing?

Thank you for asking and sorry for the late reply.
She's doing quite well - and becoming a bit impatient that it all takes so long. Which I take as a good sign.
