About Me
I am a performing artist and a want to be writer. I teach drama and choir at a middle school and high school. I love my students, but have trouble dealing with the "professional" demands. I have a degree in vocal performance, and I need to start singing again....its killing my spirit not to be. This stupid pain, and working to much have been in the way...but my dream is to be a professional singer someday soon (i feel like I am getting too old). I have been married for 2 years to a wonderful man who is my best friend. I love him! I try to live each day as best as I can, and not waste my time here on earth. I love to dance and paint, and I also love to knit. I write poetry profusely, and love to write memories down too!

Close Chronic Pain
I was in a car accident 3 years ago, and now I have ended up with chronic tension headaches from suboccipital nerualgia. I have also had other conditions that I think contribute to my sensitivity. It has been over a year since the headaches started, and the past two and a half months have been intense. My pain meds go in and out of working to help, and I am really frustrated with that right now. I am trying to maintain and not let this keep me from my work and the things I love.
Treatments
- TENS Working / Worked
- works well when I use it sparingly...all my docs said it loses effectiveness if used too much
- Heat Somewhat Helpful
- sometimes it helps! But I have to be able to be home and in bed todo it.
- Nerve Blocks Somewhat Helpful
- first set, got 15 good days, second set 5 good days.....next time they are getting lasered away.
- Physical Therapy Working / Worked
- Helps, but it seems I have to keep going back
- TENS Working / Worked
- works well when I use it sparingly...all my docs said it loses effectiveness if used too much
Close Accidents
just over 3 years ago, i was in a car accident. i was t-boned on my driver's side by a car turing. the fault is of question really, but no one will ever know. it was traumatic, and still is. i fear driving sometimes, and i relive it way too much. i have chronic tension headaches from this unfortunate event, and i wish i could go back in time
Treatments
- Physical Therapy Working / Worked
- good, but it seems to need to be ongoing, and i get 20 per year from insurance.
- Acupuncture Working / Worked
- it is helpful, but slow, and more pills are involved. i need to be patient with it
