I talked to my Internal Med doctor over email a few times this week and he cleared me of my restrictions! WOO-HOO! He told me I could start excercising - just no X-games. He must know me well :) So, now I need to start waking up and doing it! That may be the hardest thing!
And on another front, I found two new doctors - one endo for the one I fired (thanks to another Partner at my office who had thyroid cancer -- she said she LOVES her doctor and she is fabulous) and a "woman" doctor (thanks to my friend SM who also loves her doctor). I needed new ones based on my experiences at the horrible doctors office - so I now have them! And even better - I got in during February when I was afraid I would have to wait forever! Now if we can just get all of my health issues on track - and I can know the "things you need to watch for" versus the "you are just going to have to suck it up and deal with it" lists.
Now, the process of trying to get medical records to take with me. I have seen just my St. Lukes file - it is over 4 inches thick! that doesn't even begin to cover the doctors visits! So now I just have to figure out how to get them. that is next week's project!
Otherwise, everything else is going okay. Busy season hasn't started to kill me yet - and my teams are figuring me out (well, how to deal with me) which is even better. I did get a "stress headache" last friday - I deserved it becuase I cried that morning, which is a whole other story we will not get into- but I got another monday -- which is odd. there wasn't a lot of stress. My friend RH told me that I should go put my feet in really hot water (not scalding - just as hot as you could take it) and leave them there for about 5-10 minutes. It was amazing - when I got out of the bathtub (well, when I pulled my feet out of the water) there was no more headache! Amazing. Something about the blood rushing to your feet and away from your head. Thank goodness that worked since I can't really take any meds like tylenol, advil or aleve (or anything over the counter for that matter!)
And lastly, I am SO excited that my friend KJ and I are going to go get makeovers with my amazing makeup man Isaac on Satruday at Nordies. I know she has wanted to do it for so long and I just get excited watching him and learning new makeup tricks! Plus we get to go have lunch and hang out -- which I love getting to spend time with my friends even more! (and I am going to have to go upstairs and buy those stinking cute shoes that I saw for her daughter. I mean, they were SO CUTE and pink and sparkly.) I wish they had them in my size! But I think they would only fit my big toe! ha, ha!
Hope everyone is having a great week!
