Well today was meh. Slept in some, just don’t have much energy still. I was getting some of my energy back then it just dropped again.

Talked with Angel for a few minutes today, he was going to try to call, never did hear from him so guess he couldn’t. He’s supposed to find out about how things are going to go when I’m out there visiting, I had assumed he had a general idea but wasn’t too sure.

My back has been killing me all evening, I was hoping the Ultram might help, it still might since I get to switch over to 200mg/day now . I just don’t care for the tiredness it causes, the hydrocodone or such doesn’t cause me to get that tired. Unfortunately its not enough tired to help me fall asleep so still have to use Lunesta at night.

Time for sleep gonna hopefully get to talk to Angel for a bit tomorrow(technically today) so we’ll see I guess.

Well yesterday sucked.. but before that we’ll talk about Wednesday.
I awoke around 07:00 plenty of time to go to the doctor which I did. He was actually there this time too rather than another canceled appointment. He checked out my back, listened to my problems etc. I’m going to be seeing a neurologist ASAP due to the frequency of my migraines again lately and the pain they bring. He prescribed Ultram ER (which is extended release Tramadol which IMHO is a crappy opioid for about most everyone though some say it works great for them.), it has made me pretty tired after taking them throughout the day (I take once daily) the pain has went away a very tiny bit. I guess you can say it took a bit of the edge off. He also put me on Flovent to manage my asthma and to keep me from having to use my albuterol so often since it’s indicated as a rescue med for attacks and such.

Today went with mother and them to walmart and came home after that. Colon has been all screwy which is off for my usually non functioning one.
Talked to Angel for a few minutes (hardly get to talk anymore) and frustration brings anger and such which I wish could’ve been avoided for out little talk but oh well.

Stomach has been calm for most of the evening while I sat here staring at the walls, it started up again around 11 but has calmed down finally.

Guess it’s time to go to sleep, just want this bad day to be over.

I’ve added a new plugin called LiveSig.

As you may notice at the bottom of each page is my signature (well MyLiveSignature) still none the less cool.

Great plugin!

Well today was just crappy, talked to Angel for about 5 minutes. Apparently my birthday card never got sent so he said he’d send to tomorrow, hopefully this time it’ll make it out.

I got hit with a pretty bad migraine this evening. I did my usual with the Maxalt but unfortunately it didn’t do anything for it so I had to go to the ER. I got there around 9pm was taken back fairly quickly but had to wait in the ambulatory waiting area for about 45 minutes, bunch of people in there. After providing insurance info and all that stuff I was taken to the latest addition to the ambulatory area (farther back than the normal area I end up in, this is in the back of the hospital right inside the doors from the helipad). A few helicopters landed and took off while I was there.

Saw the nurse practitioner that I’ve seen a few times already there, asked what they had given before and what worked. Ended up getting some dilaudid and promethazine. My mom, Derek and Adam all came up there and Adam got some free toys from there and got to see one of the helicopters while it was landing. Finally got out of there around 11ish and came home. I’ve still got a headache but it’s a bit less than it was earlier. I have to see if my doctor can help get this stuff under control or something I can take when they get that bad to save a big trip to the ER.

I guess thats all, I don’t think anyone really reads my blog anyway so probably talking to no one.
