It's Not Even Noon!!!

 

Page 64 of 366. Good Morning Lovies. I have been up for like 6 hours already, and I literally feel braindead... I always have rough nights when I know I have medical appointments the following morning. I also, always book for the first appointment of the day, so I can avoid most patients and people... also, if my appointment is first, I am not stuck waiting around if the doctor is stuck in an appointment longer than normal.

Yes, I can say that the anxiety wasn't necessarily warranted for this appt because I absolutely LOVE my family doctor and would recommend him to everyone I know. He takes the time to listen. He doesn't force medications, nor a pill pusher... he actually prefers that I use cannabis over medications when possible!!!

To make a long story short, I am back on the seizure medication I was on years ago. As you know, I had a fairly big seizure a few weeks ago... I mean one that felt like it lasted for hours. It's not the last one I have had, but it was one of the bigger ones, for sure. I am grateful he put on meds that I have been on before, so we know how I will react to them.

We had a chance to discuss my arm being screwed, the pain shooting from my fingers all the way up my arm, into my neck, shoulder and back. I have to book for an ultrasound because he thinks that it may be "tennis elbow" on top of the carpal tunnel I am already coping with. So we shall see how fast I can get in, to get that done.

The final thing is pretty minor... I have an ear infection. Of course I have the blood clot behind my ear drum too; but that hasn't moved in years so I am not fretting over that. The ear is pretty sore, and anyone who has experienced an ear infection; you know how off balance you can be... so far, I have been lucky that I haven't been getting too familiar with the walls this week (Sorry, bad joke!!!)

I have to say, I am exhausted because I got up so early; but other than that, life is pretty good for a Monday. May you all stay safe. Stay warm. Be well. Be blessed.

With so much love and respect,

~Phoenix

FFS I Matter Too!!!

Good evening lovies. I have been struggling with something that is very close to my heart. I truly do not know where to proceed next. I'm going to try and make a very long story as simple as I can... I was adopted at 5months of age, (well apprehended at 5 months, adopted at 5 years). There is something that adoptees yearn for all their lives... WHY?  I know for me there were many questions and on my 19th birthday it appeared I was going to get those answers when I met the woman who birthed me. Unfortunately, I was sorely mistaken!!! Years went by, and I allowed this woman to have control over certain things that were weighing heavily on my heart, She held the one piece of the puzzle that felt missing from my heart... who my biological father was?!! I, one day decided that I wasn't going to allow another person have that kind of control over me... EVER!!! I left the situation alone. I struggled deeply. I was literally at war with myself. on this topic. In a way, I felt guilty th...

It's a Hide Under the Covers Kinda Day

Page 14 of 365. Good Afternoon Lovies. I really, really hope your day is going better than mine!!! Sorry, woke up at the asscrack of dawn, as I had a doctor's appointment this morning.  Thankfully it was with my family doctor; appointments with him are fairly painless.  Today, however; things kinda went sideways.  I am usually in and out within 10 mins for these appts, but today? I was there for over 45 minutes. Of course, it didn't help that I was puking maroon blood in the office. I know, I don't share a lot of my medical nor really personal stuff on here, but just so you're aware, this has been happening daily since end of May/beginning of June last year. I am what they call an "anemic blood clotter" which I didn't think was possible, but apparently it runs on the paternal side of my family. Anyways, that was the main focus of my visit after that. My stomach medication is being switched AGAIN, this time I am being set up with an antibiotic (which is cra...

Tis the Season.... Why I Am Proud of Local Tattoo Shop!!!

  Page 307 of 366. Good Afternoon Lovies. I am not sure how long this blurb is going to be; as it seems to be a topic I have been beating to death this past year. I know it is the time of the year where we switch from Halloween/Samhain into Thanksgiving (in the US) to Yule/Christmas season.  I hate pointing out this fact, but people seem to feel like Christmas time is the only time of the year that they should be charitable...  Is it out of guilt that you are donating, or is it because you genuinely feel you should be helping people??? I AM sort of calling you out because this is NOT the only time of the year that the homeless, or the downtrodden need help. I cannot stand that this is around the only time you will see non-stop commercials/ads or billboards that are asking for help with various charities; also the time we see commercials about driving under the influence. WHY IS THAT??? Driving under the influence is a year-long problem... I will not get into details about...
