I Have Mirena

I posted recently about choosing a different birth control option. (I actually use it to control my outrageously bad periods; since 2000 I have had fewer than 10 periods, usually while switching options.) I chose Mirena. It was really no problem, actually. After finding a doctor on my insurance (it would’ve been $800 to go … Continue reading »

No Scuba

I think I shall never become a scuba diver. I had my first class today at school. For those who don’t know, I had an injury on a 2006 “discover scuba” trip in Bermuda; my hearing was damaged as a result of this. But the world underwater was SO cool, and I really wanted to … Continue reading »

Better

I am feeling better today. Still staying home for one more day but I feel I’ve been more productive today than I have been for the past several days. I’m still really tired but I don’t think it’s mono and I’m hoping to go back to school tomorrow. Forwarded a letter from my doctor to … Continue reading »

Sick

Apologies to my mom for not updating sooner. Been real sick. Went to doctor today. If fatigue isn’t better by end of week, will go in for bloodwork. Possibly mono but more likely just virus. Tired, so tired. Couldn’t even brush own hair last night. Got note from doc about school but would … Okay, … Continue reading »

Out of my body

I feel like I’m outside my body or something. It started with overdoing it while swimming. I swam about 7 laps in 15 minutes and I was done. And I way overdid it. My muscles were all screaming in pain the whole way home, and I took three Advil when I got there and it … Continue reading »

Need Your Love

I was going to write a long detailed post, but in the interest of maintaining the family’s privacy, I will just ask those of you who pray to pray for my supervisor’s son, who is in the Cardiac ICU at Children’s Hospital in Washington, DC. He is on the fast track for a heart transplant … Continue reading »

I Lost Sunday

I spent most of yesterday asleep because I woke up in the morning with sinus pain and :A: gave me two Sudafed. So I crashed the rest of the day. I tried watching a movie but I had to pause it for a nap, I tried getting up but I had another nap, etc. I … Continue reading »

Back Pain

I haven’t posted in a couple of days, bad me. For 24 hours I’ve been trying to ignore really bad back pain, so bad I can’t hardly move. Last night I couldn’t even scratch my nose without it hurting, from moving my arm or whatever. Heating pads, extra sleeping, painkillers, etc. It’s driving me insane, … Continue reading »

Flying Home

Today we flew home. That’s pretty much all we did. Except I woke up this morning officially sick instead of just feeling poorly. I made it home fine, except for the descent into Washington. I think a combination of the October 2006 scuba accident and being congested from the cold combined into a terrible situation … Continue reading »

My Helix is Unhappy

For the past – two? three? – days, I’ve been dealing with a bit of soreness from my helix piercing. I got it done back in April, and it healed up perfectly fine; I’ve changed the ring twice and had no problems with it. Recently, I got some really cool skull earrings. My conch is … Continue reading »
