Through the eyes of a writer and traveler 😁! Life and some spiritual musings. |
| Night 18 y'all 💟! Wow this started out a rrrrough day... Considering the past year I'm praying 🙏,vibing, pleading with everything holy and good that this will finally be the start of a better year.) As some of you know ( and some don't) I've dealt with chronic pain for 40 years and no fun, I can tell ya . Having a good doctor can make or break you. The past two years is when things got super worse and it took time to go through " pain management clinics and doctors that did nothing or very little to help. Even though there was documentation on my conditions. It didn't matter. By the 12th or so place I tried, finally I was looked at like a human being with valid suffering. In short I was treated with respect and not ignored... Today I took a chance to take something strong enough for the amount of pain I had been dealing with since last fall 🍂. I had tried it last November and it worked marvelous! I felt 10 years younger and could sleep again ( not waking up at night from the oh my God G-d, please help) I didn't have to struggle to get out of bed, do laundry and a million other things that need to be done in a day,to have a clean house and a normal life. I had a wonderful Christmas ⛄ and birthday 🎉 ( the year before was awful...) But as I have to see my pain mgt doctor every month for a months supply of medicine, the next month my medicine was weaker and made me sick. The pain came back and I went back to the doctor and told him what happened. That the pharmacist can't be sure if the medicine will be the same strength. My Dr said " I don't know what to do." I told him to put me back on the one that didn't work so good. That was that for the past year. My sister sees how I struggle every day and suggested I try the Percocet again and today I asked for it. I called the pharmacy after the appointment and asked if they had it in. He said he would for an hour. I told him who I was and I'm the lady with the degenerative disk disease and was waiting for the medical transportation van, to get home and my sister was going to drive me there. He asked my birthday and how many and said he would hold them for me. It's going to take a couple days to feel the full effect, because I've been so bad off for so long! I'm thankful even if I have to call the pharmacy every month after my appointment to plead my case. Just for the chance to be ok! To be able to do all the writing I want to do. To finish things, to start new things and not be so exhausted from doing simple things like make my bed. Thanks for 🐨 bearing with me on this insane hard journey! I joined a Facebook group for Roanoke and last time I looked,had 88 people with information on places to live there ( some a little out of town) Nice to hear from some nice folks who cared enough to respond 😁! Gives me faith in people again,as my friends here do! Life isn't always pretty,as we get older it can seem colder sometimes. I think if you don't give up, life will surprise you in ways you don't expect! Tonight we watched NCIS and Origins. Had lamb chops ( not much meat on them) brussel sprouts and apple sauce. A piece of chocolate cake from Aldi. It's supposed to rain tonight but nothing so far! Tomorrow moving the couch to vacuum underneath and under the cushions where the crumbs lay! Maybe start putting together the bookcase. Wed food shopping 🛒! We are going to get 2 thick slices of turkey for thanksgiving and freeze it till next week. A turkey is too big for us to eat anyway. We are saving our winning lottery tickets for Christmas presents. We have $27 so far! Thanks for popping by! I didn't think I could write tonight but guess my Muse showed up. 😊🧘♀️🐘☯️💗🙏😎🌝🐮📚🎨🎄😉Be blessed |
