Topic: Bad Migraines
I have been having migraines pretty constantly well daily for about 2 months and have been to my reg doc, an ENT to rule out sinus and today Good news, I went to a neurologist and he said sometimes people that have migraines will get one long migraine that reg meds do not take care of. I have to admit I thought it was a bunch of hooy. He prescribed a regimine of prednisone, Indocin and mag-oxide. It take until about 1 for the migraine to subside and it has kind of been hanging in there but very manageble and I finally feel human again. I also had a follow up with the ENT that referred me to him and he saw a growth in my nose when I was in there for the headaches family doc thought they were sinus related. Any way he didn't think it was anything last time but this time he did a biopsy just to be on the safe side. I really like him. I have renewed faith in my neurologist as well. He is also sending me to get a MRI just to be on the safe side. While that costs a pretty penny I would rather be safe then sorry as well. I'll keep you all updated when I find out the result of the biopsy and the MRI. Tonight I feel better then I have in some time though. Yay!!! Now hopefully I'll be ready to work lots of hours so I have the time for my PS. I was having issues with what I was going to do with Logan. My hubby's mom and dad will be out of the country from the week before to the week after my surgery so no help there. His sister was going to watch him but she has to go to work to early to drop him off at parks and rec. I have decided to take my best friend up on her offer to go with me. That way hubby will stay with Logan and I will have piece of mind. Also I know he will take care of the animals. The dogs and bunny aren't much of a problem but I also have my sugar gliders that need to be fed at night. Their nocturnal.

Girl, don't I know they are the devil!! but I was so craving them last week and could not get enough of them! And I still want them but I refuse to buy anymore...at least not until my birthday in August..lol Maybe I will have forgotten about them by then. And I have used the 5 day pouch test twice before and Did really well with it...but it seems that my carb carvings come back even stronger after I complete the 5 days....My body is so weird like that...but let me know if you try and it what you think of it. Talk to you soon. Steph

Ahhhh!! The lemon creme cookies are the devil! My downfall is flourless chocolate torte...I .must.stay.away. I am toying with the idea of the 5 day pouch test just as a way to break the carb addiction...it could be worse, but I'd like to catch it before it gets any worse !

Hey Suz! Have fun with all that studying!! And I would tend to believe the water weight gain had it not been for the package of lemon creme cookies that disappered from my house and my daughter only ate 3 of them.... and that was just the beginning of my week! This is a much better week for me though..lol Thanks for the encouragement.

Thanks Belle, The problem with that is that the big loss seems to go and then come back and find me....I am sure it has something to do with lemon creme cookies and hard candy laying around at work that kept falling in my mouth last week...lol I have been devouring here lately...but I am back on track and hope to stay there. Thanks again Stephanie

Good Morning everyone! Steph like Belle said, you usually seem to lose a few lbs in a week, so I wouldn't worry too much. It could be that time of the month too! I still have sweliing, so I'm currently at 125. Can't wait untll this swelling goes down either! Have a great week everyone.
