    So yesterday…

    March 8, 2007 - By 

    So yesterday was Alex’s birthday. He had a great day. For me, it wasn’t as great. It actually started Tuesday when I went to put my contact in my right eye, which looked irritated. I didn’t think much of it. I just went ahead and switched to a new contact, because my other one had some jagged edges.

    I have what?

    August 24, 2006 - By 

    Yesterday I went to the doctor, because I’ve had the sinus issues. I was pretty sure I had a sinus infection, which it turned out I did and also the beginnings of an ear infection. While I was there, doc was asking me about my neck and I told him the symptoms I have had in the last few months. He said I have Fibromyalgia, so I’ll be going on a cocktail of medications next week to hopefully help things. Wish me luck.
