one day at a time Mood
Friday, May 16, 2008 | A General Update story
So the doctor put me on depakote. No side effects and it's been 1 week now so far so good. I had a MRI of my head done. Showed nothing but a serious sinus infection and a little bit of fluid pressure around my brain. they didn't seem to concern about it. Then I had a ultrasound of my cortiod artery. Well they told me that seemed to be ok but they found a large solid tissue mass on my left thyroid. EEEKKKK.... So yesterday I had an uptake and scan. Talk about weird the nuc med tech wore a suit to give me the pill of radioactive iodine. It was freaky. I should know what the results are. I have to go see a surgeon next week to get a biospy.. I just take one day at a time. Everything happens for a reason and it is out of my control and whining about it won't change anything. I am ready to be healthy. Yes it hurts literally to get out of bed and I am tired all the time but it could be worse. I could not be able to walk at all. I just keep telling myself that and hopefully it would change my attitude. Keep me in your prayers. The next month is going to be hard. Between this and I kick my boyfriend out and he will be totally gone and out of my life in 2 weeks and counting. See... Mania of bi polar can be of some good at times.
