duchessm's Journal

As I sit here between contentment and disbelief, I decided to journal on the past days events. To start of we got 5 inches of snow in less that 12hrs. Friday night I knew there would be no sleep due to low pressure coming in. Yeah I was right I slept for about 2hr during the day on Saturday. With pressure constantly dropping, my head was not happy. I was popping pills every 2 hrs with no relieve. So finally I had to breakdown and to the E.R. in the middle of a snowstorm we go. This is about 4p.m get my "cocktail" and plus the wonderful parting gift of another spinal tap which read 41.. Not happy.. Was taken down to 10 which felt like heaven, chocolate and the best sex EVER wrapped into one. (ladies u know what I am talking about) sorry fellas if you read that. But the greatness was mindblowing. Got home about 9:45p.m slight sore back when sitting and lifting legs but I think my body is use to the taps now this is number ummmm..6 or 7. You know what comes next about midnight I feel pressure behind my eye. BULLHELL!!! It's back, I take my p.m. meds which helped me sleep for about 2 1/2hrs and here I am burning the midnight oil alone... HHHEEELLLLOOOO... Nope no answer. I beleive the pressure is steady today as long as it doesn't fall I could give a rat's ballsac. If anyone needed a shunt I do, I don't know that I can continue like this til March 5th when I have appt with neuro-surg. So now here I sit at 3a.m. alone with my thoghts and my pseudotumor and no pseudotumor friends guess I'll make a pot of coffee and start my day. ( whatever that is). Hopefully the next time I write it will be something the people will like something positive and upbeat, but for now "raspberries".....
