Let's sit and rock a spell Keyzy...so sorry you are having to go through this. I pray that you have some better days between now and the 6th. I know it is going to seem like it takes forever for the 6th to get here, but think of where you'll be in a couple of months. Right now ya just kinda have to go with the flow. That's my motto any more as I don't get any of those things done I want to do....

Hugs and prayers,
Villa

(((hugs))) Keyzy....you are getting there.....definately gotta get the aspirin out of your system before surgery.

Try something......dizzy....if you are sitting or laying down....have just one foot on the floor. My dad taught me that....(vertigo here)....he was in the Navy...the medics had the guys that got seasick (or drunk) sleep with one foot on the floor.....It actually works (even on a night looooooong ago-too much alcohol and had the spins !)

I would love for it to work for you !

Now rub your tummy and head at the same time..don't spill the coffee or lift the foot...watch that cold cloth!

MK!! You're going to make the poor thing even more dizzy than she was before! :lol:

Just remember we're right there with you keyzy. Maybe Dramamine would help as well, at least on the bad days? You might sleep more, but who doesn't need a long nap? :D

Hi Ladies!Im doing okay.Im feeling the difference without the antibiotics and anti inflammatories.Its okay though.I just cant wait to get it over with.Its like 2 more weeks to wait.I have been taking the ibuprofen and it helps a bit.I woke up the other morning and there was blood all over my pillow and it kinda freaked me out.I called the doc and he said it was okay and not to get upset.As long as it stopped and wasnt still coming out of my ear it would be fine.Kinda freaky though.But the ibuprofen is helping and Im holding up.

MK How is Mike holding up?Are you doing okay?

I decided I like Mike again..lol he has been taking good care of me..but then again he knows I will have to wait on him soon. men are devious.
Mike is getting weaker and weaker. last night he all but had an Asthma/Heart attact after a shower. He was told NOT to take too hot a shower..but does dufus boy listen ? (Mike doesn't have asthma)
Walking is getting harder and harder. I have him walking thed og across the street from our house..he comes home and collapses. He says it's his hips (a symptom of prostate cancer) But it's also because of copd and weakness. I need him to at least try to walk a bit every day..or he won't be able to walk at all. We are going to ask about an electric chair..but NOT for the house, he needs to walk.
The end of July can't get here soon enough. He can't seem to remember why he is taking hormones and why they haven't started the radiation.

Im glad your getting him walking.Im sure he hates it ,but its good for him.They never listen!Mine thinks Im being mean when I say stuff to him about overstraing his chest muscles.Then he complains for 3 days about the pain.He just got permission to go back to work on light duty.He will only be doing desk work and Im glad because he is bored and needs something to do.Plus God knows we need to get some money flowing here,lol.

About the hair,Im sure they are going to shave some off.I posted a pic to my FB thing so I would have a before pic,lol.Who cares,its only hair and it will grow back,lol.I need a new style anyways.

How is your eye and blood sugar MK?

Sorry to hear about Mike getting weaker and weaker. Showering/bathing, getting dressed such simple things that can take so much of one's energy and air. Yes, yes on the walking even just a little bit several times a day can make a world of difference though the energy,air and pain can make one think it is not worth it. Do take care of yourself. It is harder on the caregiver then the one going through it I believe as caregiver one wants so much to make it better for their loved one.

How is the vaping going now?

Keep that beautiful smile and great sense of humor(not to mention the awesome tomatoes). Amazing how if one can find something funny with no matter what is going on makes it sooo much easier.

Lots a Hugs and Prayers...
