I just looked up and saw the deadbolt to my back door open (again!) It leads to my patio.  I’ve been madly running around to see if anything has been moved in my unit; anything has been changed.  At least when I looked outside, I didn’t see any crumpled up balls of paper from my [...]

Out of Commission. Out of Transmission

Levelled by killer migraine.  I think we’re now at five since losing my Clobazam (even though I’m now back on my regular dose. Brain now at maximum mutiny and rebellion point.  Currently preparing for Cerebral Civil War. Roll newsreel please. “…duck and cover…duck and cover…” Later kids, PA

Yes, yes.  I know.  How often does our blood boil when someone asks us how we are doing, and we simply answer, “I’m fine.”  Well, I am here to tell you that answer is…actually, quite “fine.”  I swear.  Cross my fine little heart. I’m not sure how many of you have seen this film I [...]

This One’s Gotta Go Up. Big Bye-Bye or Break?

The manufacturer of my Clobazam/Frisium is not sending out the drug anywhere until maybe mid-July.  Maybe? I can’t explain it but there’s a political fight for rights of pharmacists or some damn thing. I have enough to carry me to Sunday morning.  Just called Non-Arsey Neuro who is out of the office until Monday.  I [...]

My Packaging May Look Good but Time for a Recall?

Sweetie GP’s right on the job, but she made me feel like more of a wreck than I already thought I was.  Also, kind of like an old woman. *rolls eyes* We went over my recent blood work, some of which I knew.  Ferritin, low.  Hemoglobin, low (although, I’ve never had low readings, there.) I’m [...]

Most people who have been hanging around my blog (and definitely Twitter!) know that I have been talking about finding an apartment, the state of my life in that perspective, how afraid I am regarding where I’m going to live, what the hell is going to happen, just all of it. I must find something [...]

A Bit Worked Up Last Night?

Uh, maybe.  Kinda? We’ve got both a bit of brain stuff and emotional stuff going on at the moment. It’s not so bad.  I had advance warning again, but I was crossing all fingers and toes.  We’ve gone from almost, spring-like conditions, to how much snow today? It’s not that cold, but I still couldn’t [...]

I have my CT tomorrow.  I doubt it will show anything.  Nope.  Nothing.  I’ve said this with my past MRIs, as well.  The scans will show nothing, too.  And they never did. It was because I thought I had an empty head.  Which I’m certain is true, now.  I had my doubts before, but not [...]

The Second Time in My Life?

I can’t believe this has actually happened.  Although, at least I had a bit of warning.  Between yesterday and today, we’ve leapt up a whopping 15°C! If you don’t know what that means for wee PAs head, MIGRAINE!!! Well, that’s the only correlation I’ve ever been able to ascertain. The “second time in my life?” [...]

I’ve been running around like a Private Detective, a Lawyer and a Trash Man (Woman?) all at once.  What time is it now? How many hours? I have no clue.  I need a fucking break.  For someone who’s so goddamn disorganized, is it any wonder? I’m trying to “prove” to the stoopid guvmunt that I’m [...]
