• About

    I’m a wife and mom of two daughters. My daughters are 12 years apart so that keeps me quite busy and a little crazy at times. My life is a jumble of mixed up mishaps, but it’s always centered around my family.

    Some More Good Medical News

    May 30th, 2008

    I saw my PCP today. She already had a progress note from my neurologist, the results of my CT scan and other lab results. We had a good talk about everything that’s going on with me. She agrees to help me coordinate all of my doctors and medications as long as she is kept in the loop about things. I wanted to hug her when she said that!

    We are working on some things diet wise to get my Potassium levels up. She also ordered a blood test to get my levels so that she can see if the disgusting medicine that I have to drink is working or not. If not she feels it’s not worth me taking it any longer. She also encouraged me to remain positive if I need to increase my medication for the Myasthenia Gravis.

    She told me that MG is a cyclical disease and I just may be going through a bad time. Would I rather feel as badly as I do or take medicine that’s worked in the past to help me? I’ve been focusing so much on the Potassium levels and not wanting to take more medicine and not realizing that I what I need to do is focus on getting better.

    My attitude has changed from the appointment with her. She’s easy to talk with and feels that it’s my right to ask questions and even refuse medical care that I feel is wrong. When I told her about the lower bowel series fiasco, she pretty much said, “Go, girl!”. She appreciates my intelligence and understands that I am very knowledgeable about the chronic illnesses I have. Dealing with too many doctors and medicines is what’s getting to me.

    I’ve already bought some of the food and juices she suggested (dried apricots, dates, cranberry juices) and I’m not taking the medicine that was prescribed for me that is contraindiacted for MG. I am going to call the pharmacy tomorrow to be sure that something like this doesn’t happen again.

    I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.


    Lost Finale

    May 29th, 2008

    This is one night I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. Lost is on for three whole hours. I’m watching the first hour because I didn’t pay attention that closely to it the first time around. Then I get two new hours of the season finale.

    I’m getting in my pj’s, making some popcorn and cuddling up on the couch with my Mickey Mouse blanket. This is like a dream come true for me. To get to watch one of my all time favorite TV shows that’s finally giving some answers now is awesome. I love the subtitles at the bottom of the screen. I wonder if it’s going to be like that for the two hour show.

    On another note, I saw my Cardiologist today to get the results of my echocardiogram. The Mitral Valve Prolapse has gotten just a bit worse but it’s not anything to be concerned about. I will need to have an echocardiogram done every year. I learned that it’s not really because of the rheumatoid arthritis but more because of the Sjogren’s Syndrome. Sjogren’s can cause some type of problems that need to be monitored. I honestly don’t remember what. Blame me? I have too many medical conditions to keep track of!

    One less thing for me to worry about, thank God. And tonight I just wanna have fun.
