I got my medical ID necklace today. :) On the back side it has my name, syringomyelia: protect head and spine. I've been so paranoid driving without it.
Twice in the past week I've had to take medicine to relieve pain. Today I have stabbing/flickering pain in my right thigh. I had it a week or so ago in my right bicep. It's really weird and extremely irritating. Like pulsating, stabbing, burning... I don't know how to describe it. I'm not sure how closely it's related to SM, but it is there.
Also, I read that sometimes depending on the size and location of syrinxes surgery isn't an option. I'm worried that because of how far spread mine are they won't be able to do anything if need be. I can't wait to get in to see the neurosurgeon.
On a dumber note, my grandma was brought to the ER yesterday because she was having trouble breathing. The entire family was up there with her. Things aren't good. I wish this wasn't dragging on. It really sucks.
On a bright note:
Happy Nurses Day! (damn I need a job)
Also my amazing 90 minute massage is tomorrow morning. It has been well-deserved and very much needed.
