Since I have fessed up about my medical issues and so tonight I will give you some updates.
Being one of many ills I think it only fair to mention that somehow and this is just a supposition on my part, but I think that my chronic sinus problems have to do with my compromised immune system due to the Multiple Sclerosis, which is an autoimmune disease.
And that does seem logical to me.
Last night again after less than a week of stopping my antibiotic salve for my eyes I awoke around three A.M. with both of my eyes burning, nose too and ears feeling like they were full of something dreadful!
Horrible and very yucky!
So remembering that the eye doctor said that the medicine had three refills and could be used when I needed it, it appeared to be the right time to put it back into my arsenal of medications by applying it immediately!
And so I did, and I was good for another three hours of zzz’s and awoke at six on the dot!
Blurry eyed still with that Vaseline imaging now in both eyes from the salve.
Maneuvering around the house and on here was, I must say, a wee bit challenging to say the least!
Of course it was hours until I could prove my theories and I did, of course, the eyes and nose and ears are all connected! WOW, is it just me or I bet you all knew that already, hmm? LOL! HA!
The eye involvement in my case though has been waiting in the wings apparently, until the wind and whatever thrusted it into the fold, via my outdoor adventure out on that little too breezy day over a week ago, and so now I am a total head wreck and I am not speaking figuratively; I really feel that way!
Boy, am I glad that I got that flu shot way back in September…another big ha!
What I would like to know is when are they going to come up with the inoculation against chronic sinus infections, huh?
And of course it’s the weekend and I will again have to wait until Monday to seek medical intervention.
In spite of this problem, yesterday Hubby did go back to Jo-Anne’s Fabric and Crafts and bought two yards of the fleece, enough extra for a pillow, still for the whole shebang about ten bucks, but the matching thread and needed staple of white thread put us over; a bit around seventeen. Did you know that darn thread is like $2.79 a spool, crazy?
Now to be fair, when I get next to my nearly forty year old sewing machine, yep, still works Hubby bought it for me when I was expecting baby number one, in those days we didn’t know if we were having a boy or a girl, since they didn’t have the ultrasounds then I think…oh the sewing machine breaks jams up or goes kaflooey when I touch it and so Hubby took over the machine, I suppose that’s why it’s a ‘machine’, men do better with them, ha, not really but it sounded good at the time!
And what we got from the cut off piece is something that looks like a short body pillow or long bolster that matches the throw, just right!
Oh and I did get some better news while at the eye doctors, when my left eye was tested in August my sight in spite of that cataract lens thingy fogging up was still 20/40 then, but last week was 20/20 and so they also said that according to my eye working, and results in that were still sealed in that envelope for the license bureau said according to his findings that I could drive with that one eye, but he has no bearing on my legs strength being my eye doctor and I do and so even though the sealed letter is still in the car… I would not want to be on the road with someone like me driving, would you? About a year ago I did try driving again when I still had an active legit license, but my legs weren’t strong enough and I couldn’t get past fifteen miles an hour and the speed limit even in our neighborhood is thirty!
Hubby being a retired law enforcement officer used to tell me how many people out there shouldn’t be driving with devastating physical/health issues, but were and there were way too many traffic deaths due to that.
So I am good with him driving and since he now is fully covered with his insurance if he has an emergency I will call an ambulance, and then we have Dial-A-Ride too… so we have got a plan.
Thinking ahead here… and so allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and to kindly share those overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
PS I do believe tonight is another movie night and we will be seeing the prequel to Planet of the Apes, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Gosh I watch that kid James Franco so often lately especially on General Hospital, what an amazing brilliant talented easily bored kid, hmm? We have been seeing pretty great movies, like: Cowboys and Aliens and Super Eight all in the last couple of weeks… but I am sure you have been seeing them too!
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
