12/9/18 Olive AMPS 285; +7=201; PMPS 379; +4=387

Yesterday

Olive has a nice steady drop for PM cycle last night. Here's hoping she does the same today. Bupre @ 0.2 is so much better for her. Guess I need to get script with refills for larger quantity for her. My measly salary will end paying for her meds every month. Next year I get to apply for ss and that will help.

DH had his scans last night. Early January we will see the neurologist and find out if there are any changes.

Hope everyone has a safe day.

 

Good luck with the scan that DH had. I think I missed what was going on with him, but good wishes are coming his way just the same.

Glad you found the dose of bup that helps Olive.

Oh, Paula, I know what you mean about the meds and stuff eating up the measly salary! Yeah for SS next year for you!

 

@Bobbie And Bubba DH had blind spot in his vision. That set off a battery of tests and specialist. Including exotic, immunology and infectious disease blood tests, brain, chest, artery scans and ultrasounds. The brain mri, ultrasound shows lesions no one knew what they were. So they went sent to a neurologist who according to him gets all the results others can't figure out. He said all the tiny lesions are mini strokes in the normal spots. There is a larger one in a spot that isn't normal for a stroke. He doesn't know what it is. But he is believing that it is for lack of any other explanation. Follow up scans to monitor it were done last night to see if it's larger, spread etc. DH only (for lack of better word) impairment is the one small blind spot in one eye.

Measly salary will be even less after January as I will only be filling in when someone wants off. Right now I'm every Friday and Saturday because person is in Florida for the month. She is hoping when she gets back that we can alternate Fri and Sat so she isn't doing every one. I see more time in February coming because full timer is suppose to have back surgery.

 

Wow, scary stuff with the brain and I hope that it is just from a mini stroke. Fingers crossed and all good vines going out!

 

Nice slide for Olive today. Glad the bupe is helping her. Sending prayers for your DH.

 

I had no idea that all of this was going on with your DH - sending lots of vines for good results and no new lesions.

 

Sending lots of vines to your DH!
