SOrry Ive been away... Been dealing with A LOT of things going on in my life... So I got in the car accident in january and hit my head on the steering wheel if ya''ll remember.. Well Ive had 2 MRIs now on my brain and I have a lesion on my brain. I am currently being tested for Multiple Sclerosis. Ive been having some other symptoms that could be correlated with it or just from a head tramua in general but they want to be able to rule it out so they can try to get me better 
I had 15 vials of blood drawn last wednesday and passed out because I had to fast and ya''ll know im all of 108 lbs (i keep losing weight!!! ) Well they also had me in physical therapy for my back for about 4 months but i still had this pain in my shoulder blade 24/7 that NEVER went away and it just hurts! So I asked my DR to write a MRI for my back and he wrote it for the thoracic spine.. well they found a slipped disc there but it still was in the wrong part of my back, so my orhtopedic surgeon had me get 2 more MRIs of my lumbar and cervical spine and found out that I have a herniated disc in my L5-S1 area So I had 2 options... get epidural shots and hope that it heals the pain OR back surgery So we are going to try the epidural shots first which I''d only lose a month if they dont work... because I am so worried about if I have to do the back surgery to make the pain go away I dont have much tme before i start back to school and trying to work which i really cant because it hurts to stand for more than 30 minutes or even sit It sucks... I have spent the last 5 months in PAIN! My quality of life has just been It''s just alot of strain on mine and FIs relationship... Not in the way of anything bad just he has to do a lot more around the house than he used to because its hard for me to do alot because of my back hurting... But he has been amazing and I am so blessed to have such an amazing FI! I told him I felt bad he had to go through all of this for me but he said he wouldnt have it any other way... he comes to ALL of my appointments even when he is supposed to be studying for the MCAT... Love my FI But its also but a damper on planning my wedding.. Ive been trying to get stuff done but its hard when I just dont feel good and spend most ofthe day just laying on the couch with a heating pad on my back
We also got our new furbaby I posted about a while ago.. and we had to spend a lot of time getting her to love us but she has come around A LOT is now sleeping next to me as I type this!! She is such a sweetie but still has her moments of dont touch me Im a scaredy cat! Ill have to make a new post for her pictures... she is such a cutie!
okay well I just wanted to update ya''ll because I know some of ya''ll were wondering where I had been! Hope everyone had a great weekend!!! I have my first epidural today so Im hoping it goes well!! Wish me luck!!!
