I had to go to the hospital again yesterday. It was terrible. I was in so much pain like before but only this time I felt confused. It sounds silly now but it’s true. I couldn’t make out a real sentance for the life of me or it took me some time to complete one. At one ponit I thought I was having a heart attack! Tom had to rush home yesterday morning from work to take me to the ER. I was discharged last night.
I’m getting an MRI on Monday. Maybe we can get to the bottom of my migraines. They’ve been more frequent and getting worse each time. Sometimes I do wish they’d find something just so I can be “fixed”. I can’t stand this feeling, it’s like I’m completely helpless. They have me on powerful medication and it isn’t working but it knocks me out. I am in bed most of the day. My kids are so wonderful. They’ve been helping around the house; cleaning the kitchen and doing the dishes and laundry. I’m so lucky I have such wonderful babies!
Well until Monday I have to inject myself with Imitrex and take 2 doses of vicodin. I’m like a walking zombie. By the way, both meds don’t take the pain away, they just keep me in a daze enough not to notice it until bedtime, then a new day begins. It sucks. Wish me luck.
