Journal Entry for May 13, 2008 Mood
Tuesday, May 13, 2008

I had my spinal tap yesterday. It went well. I am not feeling so good today. Nausea and pain on my right side. I haven't been feeling so hot lately. Apparently when they checked my blood yesterday my blood sugar was only 52 and my protein levels were extremely low. No idea why, I have been eating.

 

So anyways the nurse called me after I got home, and I had to stay on back all day yesterday and again today at least, because they took a lot of csf out for additional testing. Plus all I can do is snack small items all day long, practically eating all the time. Keep my sugar constant. But hey I never been told to drink dr pepper and eat chocolate before! LOL Yesterday was a diet from heaven! LOL

 

I'll keep you posted...feeling crappy now. Love, M
