[Quixotic1]

Okay, the weeks are getting busy.  What do you want others to know about your goings on this week?

COMPLETELY off topic, but I'm going to the dentist tomorrow morning for what I think (and hope is just) a cavity.  

I haven't gone to a real dentist in a long time, the last time I had ANYTHING done was when I went to a clinic where dental students work on you for cheap when I cracked several teeth due to grinding.  (This was while I was in school with no dental coverage.)  

I really, really have anxiety about the dentist, but I know I'm lucky to get in on short notice and the office said they'd treat whatever the problem is the same day, as long as I'm willing to wait (as opposed to running away in fear, which I may do!!!!!!)

Good luck to everyone with much bigger and/or badder things on their plates!

Today (Teusday) OB/GYN appointment.  Set up ultrasound to find out what it is. Yes I am pregnant for those that don't know.  And it is wonderful because on top of the joy of a new life I have had no weird symptoms since the beginning of the pregnancy.

Other than that it is just shopping and preparing for Christmas.

Yesterday was my lumbar puncture, so at best today it will be a little light shopping and lots of rest. I have skipped the headache so far (yay) but things feel...weird. Hard to describe. Perhaps its a lot of the vertigo but my head kinda hurts but it's not really a headache.

Tommorrow is a big meeting for work, so I'm hoping to be over the cold so I don't sound snot filled. Somehow that is just not a professional sound.

Thursday should be more shopping and if I'm lucky some present wrapping. Carry that theme on until it's all done. LOL

Yesterday had an upper GI series because of difficulty swallowing'

Thursday I will have a MRI of both c-spine and t-spine

Ooops.

Tuesday,
Wednesday,
Friday,

I'm scheduled for physical therapy, but with the snow, ice and temperatures not forecast to get above freezing, I may have to cancel.  I'll see today if its possible to walk the about three miles without getting squished by motorist's spinning out.

Looks like Christmas shopping is not in the picture, so I'll finish my cards and maybe see about some online shopping, which I really haven't done before.

Happy Holidays!

Tuesday

[Rena705]

Well the weather outside is frightful and the indoors is warm and delightful but although I don't want to go I have to go , have to go, have to go...

Tuesday is my testing for my irregular heartbeat...they are going to have me hooked up to the computer and ECG while I am exercising so perhaps the heartrate will drop this time as it has every other time I have exercised other than when they are monitoring it...Murphy's Law I believe they call it!

Then I have my LAST exercise class on Thursday...sure going to miss all the people there but I can go back when I want to.

Other than that, just getting ready for the holidays...haven't even started to decorate yet so I guess I should get at it soon.

Hope everyone has a productive and successful week before Christmas!

Lots of Hugs,

Rena

Hi all,
This week for me -

Today - holiday wrapping party luncheon for our Adopted family. Pizza for the fourth time in 5 days!  a real heart healthy start to my week.

Tuesday, new doctor - an ENT  doc to amuse my GP, GI and Neuro docs who can't figure out why I have a constant feeling of a knot/lump/bubble in my throat.

Wednesday must be MRI day - me too Q!  Brain and cervical w/contrast on a 3T.

Thursday and Friday are holiday luncheon days here - more eating.

That's my week!

[Sailorsong]

My week will not get busy until the weekend. I will be doing some baking as I have an appt. next week in Nashville. A friend of mine invited me over to Xmas dinner and I told him I would bring the dessert and bread. Not sure what I'll make yet but thinking of a herb bread and a cheesecake for the dessert.

Ahhh... nothing with Dr.'s... just Christmas party's and banquets... I hope you are all safe with the strange weather up north (I love my southern weather) and that you have good experiences at your Dr.'s visits!

Today: follow up with my Ophthalmologist re: last week's episode of ON.

Hopefully receive results of last MRI (brain, c-, and t-spine, w/w.o contrast), ordered as 6 month follow up to starting Copaxone.  MRI was done on NOVEMBER 21!  Saw my GP last Friday and she is still chasing it down.  Normally I have results in less than one week.  Apparently all the transcriptionists have left town???

Also had a PAP done on Friday, awaiting results from that.  Nothing I'm concerned about, other than the fact that I haven't had one done in at least 7 or 8 years.  I KNOW, I'm a bad girl, you don't have to tell me.  My GP was refreshingly non-judgmental when I mentioned the error of my ways.  :)

[sllowe]

Going to shop my legs off today, Monday.

Good luck Quix w/your MRIs, hope all is clear and safe to leave the house.

Lyn - Good luck w/your ear Dr., and let us know what that lp says....
