MRI on Monday
Thursday July 28, 2011 - Well, my MRI is scheduled for Monday. I can not wait until it is over. Thankfully we are only doing the brain again this time and not the spine. I am going to have to take a Xanax before. I hope that will help keep me calm. I will once again have an open MRI but it is still not open enough for me. I am so claustrophobic.
Need Sleep
Friday July 15, 2011 - Happy Friday! I am so glad it is Friday. It has been a rough week. I have had reactions to my medication twice this week and hoping to not have them tonight. On top of the shivering violently and feeling like I have been hit by a truck the next day I have insomnia. I have had two nights of about 2 hours of sleep. I lay in bed and I cannot go to sleep. I have also been having some of the same MS symptoms. The one that I can not ignore anymore is the constant muscle spasms in my left leg. It is so often now that I am in pain. I have also had a new symptom this week that I am choosing to ignore, the top of my right foot is numb.
I think the heat and lack of sleep is really starting to get to me. I am so sick of the heat. I cannot tell you the last time I spent anytime outside. The kids have even been complaining that they want to go out and play. It is hard for them to understand that I can't go outside when it is 100 degrees and play.
On a happier note....Emily and I are going to have a tea party tomorrow. She went to a tea party at a friend's house last week and we have been very excited to have our own. I have spent all week looking for a real tea set. I have found tons of children's tea sets and miniature tea sets that are reasonable in price but too small. We want a regular size floral (fancy) tea set. I did find some on eBay but they are way out of our price range. I ended up getting some mismatched pieces at Ross. I would still like to have a full set someday.
Dylan and Jerry are going to see Transformers tomorrow while Emily and I have our tea. I am not sure who is more excited about the movie. I am sure Dylan will come home and have to tell me all about the movie without pausing to catch his breath.
Well I guess that is all I have to report now. I hope everyone has a good weekend!
