A Blog About Crohn's Disease, Fibromyalgia, Migraines, Veteran Healthcare & Other Issues. For Me, It Could Be Worse.
Well, guys, catching you up might take a minute with this post. Since my last 'real' blog post, I've only updated you on Lumpy, my ganglion cyst. I need to vow to post weekly like I used to, I can't apologize enough to my followers. I had called and visited the VA, to see my... Continue Reading →
Since this blog began a few years ago, I've always suffered hand pains and within the last year, I have had a ganglion cyst develop. I fell on my hands in January of 2016 and ended up tearing a ligament in my left hand. This tear went unnoticed, I thought nothing of the bruising and... Continue Reading →
Well, goodness, what a crazy few weeks it has been! And my life will stay a little chaotic for the rest of this month, too. After my last blog post, No Luck of the Irish for Me, two weeks have passed and I've been running around like crazy. But here is Bilbo to get us... Continue Reading →
Its been another few weeks, but I didn't necessarily want to post back to back since my Crohn's disease anniversary blog came just days after my last full post, Always Another Appointment. And then, of course, Saturdays post happened - Getting Hopes Up To Be Let Down - and I couldn't focus on this post... Continue Reading →
I really didn't want to talk about this, but I have to get the words out before they eat me up inside. Infertility is a pretty traumatizing thing to have to deal with. Month after month of getting your hopes up and being let down. It's a cycle of what-ifs leading to negative outcomes. Each... Continue Reading →
It's been 2 years! I believe in celebrating milestones, whether good or bad, and today marks my 2-year anniversary of my Crohn's disease diagnosis. I was given a gift, a curse, a problem but no cure. Tomorrow, my beloved St. Patrick's Day, is my 2-year Crohn's diagnosis anniversary and I'm still in the same position... Continue Reading →
Damn. Another two weeks have gone by since my February post, with a few more appointments and doctor visits, and even more new consultations added. With my Crohn's disease journey, I've not felt any different having started the Stelara. I had my follow-up with GI, Dr. S, this past week, and I got to explain everything to... Continue Reading →
Well, folks, February has been a whirlwind and it has almost come and went in the blink of an eye. I know I've been slacking when it comes to posting. Every two weeks or so is unacceptable and I apologize. I also thank you for sticking around and following my journey even when my consistency... Continue Reading →
Since my last post, about my ganglionectomy, its only been six days but I wanted to catch you up since it'll be another week before I have a day off to sit and write. The days following my surgery were spent in pain. I had originally planned on going back to work that Thursday (2... Continue Reading →
