It has returned

The migraines are ok now. They start in Sept/Oct when the weather changes and leave when the winter has declared itself staying and it stays cold all the time. I have been getting dizzy due to the new meds that I am taking but the migraines are doing ok. I have perscription drugs to help keep then under control.
I went to work on Friday for 3.5 hrs. I was having a good day. Saturday was ok but today wasn't a good day. I went to church and then had lunch and went back to bed for the afternoon. The painkillers are welcome. I am planning to go to work tomorrow for as long as I can but if I get into trouble, I will come home.
I go back to the dr on Friday.
Baby Lily and her family are coming on Thursday so I am really looking forward to this weekend. I just hope I am well enough to enjoy their visitl.
Thanks for your continued prayers.

I see my chiropractor 3x a week. He is a miracle worker and has helped greatly with the migraines. He is also concerned about this problem that I am currently having. He has no answers as to what may be going on either.
At the moment, he is in summy Mexico for a week. I'll see him again on Monday.

I'm happy to hear that you see the chiro too. Glad you've gotten some relief. Did you ever try the magnesium that someone suggested? Just curious...I'm thinking about taking that supplement myself.

No, I never did take the magnesium. My chiropractor sold it to me. I'll have to ask him how much to take again, I forget. Thanks for reminding me. I worked 6 hrs today. Not sure if I will make it tomorrow. It will depend on how I feel when I wake up. The boss needs me on Thursday so she told me to take either tomorrow or Wed off to be rested for then. I might take tomorrow.

Ok, maybe we can both remind each other to take it together! Can't hurt!

I had a dr's appt yesterday. He is narrowing the problem down and thinks that thee is something wrong with my bowel. This is where the pain started last March, but has eventually moved to other areas since. I have to go for another untrasound next week. He gave me more painkillers as well as antibiotics.
The pain has been keeping me awake at night for the last 3 weeks or so and is affecting the migraines. So the dr gave me more meds for them too. I am a walking drugstore. I have another appt to see the dr again in 3 wks. Thanks you so much for your prayers. Love to all my prairie friends.

Thank you for keeping us updated, Marilyn. Not a day goes by that I don't pray for you.

Thank you sooo much Rob, and to everyone else. I truly appreciate your prayers. You guys are awesome! I love ya.

I'm glad that they're finally doing an ultrasound. I sure pray that the scan will show them what the problem is.

How did your visit go with baby Lily?

Lily is a sweetie but if her mom is in the room, she wants to be with mom. She loves to play on the floor and laughs like crazy when her brothers pay attention to her. To me it looks like they are rough with her but she must be used to it cause she loves their attention and they love her. Sooo cute.

I got some test results back today, they came back normal. I guess that is good news but I was actually hoping that maybe that something would come back wrong so we would have a clue. I have an ultrasound coming up in a week so hopefully it will shed some new light.
I am working every other day, for 6 hrs a day. It doesn't seem like much when the paycheque comes in but for now, the body says its enough. Thanks for praying.

Tomorrow I have an ultrasound to see if they can figure out what is causing my problems. I have been doing ok over the past week, for which I am very thankful. It has been so long since this all started and I am very ready for it to all be over. Thanks for your prayers.

Marilyn, you will continue to be in my prayers. Please let us know how your ultrasound goes tomorrow. I'm glad that you have been feeling a little bit better lately.

I'll Be Praying that they will find out what is wrong with you

Good luck at your ultrasound today, Marilyn! I'll be praying that they find an answer!!!

Let us know how everything goes. Hope you find out what the problem is from and have a quick fix.

The ultrasound went ok. The pushing and proding was painful. I went to work after for 6 very long hours. I am glad that my day is over. Thanks for praying. You are all very dear friends. I love all of you.
I'll let you know the results when I hear them. I go to see my dr next Monday.

I'm glad it's over, Marilyn. We'll be praying for you!

I'm glad today is almost over, Marilyn. I'm sorry it didn't go well. i'm praying for good results.(((hugs)))

Sorry that the ultrasound wasn't exactly comfortable Marilyn. Keep us posted on the results...I'm sure this will be a long weekend waiting for them. I'm praying they'll find an answer for you!

I visited the dr today. Things are getting better. The side is still tender but much better than it was earlier. The dr hasn't got the reports back from last week so he will call when he gets them in.
Thanks for your prayers.

I'm so happy that you are having some relief, Marilyn. I think of you often. My prayers are with you. (((hugs)))

The results came in yesterday. They found a problem in the bowels that will hopefully be taken care of with fibre and laxitives. The pain is much better and I am grateful.
But the saga continues. On Monday I was very itchy on my hands and red blotches appeared. By bedtime my 2 fingers beside the thumb were swollen. When I woke up yesterday the whole hand was swollen and painful. I went to a clinic and the dr said it is hives. I've never had them before so I didn't know what they were. Today the hand isn't as painful but still swollen. I can't make a fist or hold only anything so I can't work today. I am only working Mon, Wed and Fri so hopefully I can go on Fri if the swelling goes down.
Life's little surprizes, ya never know what's coming next. But God is in control.
