About Me

My photo
This is me. I don't really know how else to say it. Well who am I? I am a passionate person. Sometimes I have I little problem identifying boundaries. Or divulging too much. Hence the title of my blog -The Real Me: No Holding Back I am sort of like an overflowing cup. Sometimes my cup overflows with glorious beautiful bubbles. Other times it's loud popping bubbles of rage. Or sometimes I just fizzle out or get all mixed up. If you want the real me, if you want honesty, frankness, raw emotions, and thoughts read my blog. It will be well worth your while.

Today was a good day

Since my last blog post. I have been experiencing very blurry vision and extreme tiredness to the point where I could not make my 1 hour drive to work and called off friday and tuesday. Also hate to mention gained 10 pounds. Afraid the symptoms were as a result in a increase to my blood sugar I visited my primary doctor and he suggested cutting my pill in half until I see my doctor tuesday. So happy I went to go see him because my symptoms disappeared. Vision normal. Not tired. I do indeed think the worst is over. Hopefully I have stabilized and no more meds will be needed.
I am so thankful. This upcoming week is very significant for me. 7/4/05 I was beginning to unravel. I still remember the days events pretty clearly. My husband made homemade pizza with my daughter we enjoyed fireworks @ packard park. But things got worse as the days continued and on 7/10/05 I went to the emergency room and I was hospitalized for 5 days.
My birthday is 7/11 but honestly a diagnosis an answer to what was wrong the best birthday present I could have ever gotten.
If I had not paid attention to the symptoms that prompted a change in meds I may have spent another birthday in the hospital. Instead I am happy, smiling on the inside, enjoying the holiday, enjoying my daughter. Enjoyed a sleepover with a bunch of awesome girls. Went to a health food store with my daughter. Made a healthy lunch. Awesome.
Just knowing I am going to be okay makes me smile. Knowing that I have a doctor that listens to me, keeps any concern at bay because he has worked with me for years keeping me well. Enabling me to graduate college (something I attempted several times before my diagnosis) with honors. Get a
job. Now helping me keep that job by keeping me well.

Our partnership will allow me too move on to the next goals in my life -black belt. And my first mini goal for that is to practice running.

Well happy fourth!
