I haven't been able to understand all the sickness my family has been facing since this school year started. I don't get why. Sometimes I think it's because we must be doing something right as a family and we're trying to be discouraged. Hayden has a double ear infection and an eye infection. The first antibiotic he was given made him projectile vomit every time he ate. I've never seen a baby throw up like that. It was terrible! So I took him off of it and asked for a new one. He started it today, so we'll see how it goes.
I thought my visit with the doctor would end up with me having another MRI on my back to see if there have been any changes. Nope. Not at all. I had two different types of nerve tests to see if I have peripheral neuropathy. I didn't too much care for those tests. Not fun. Both tests were normal, so my doctor decided I need to see a neurologist. What?! A neurologist? Why?? Because people don't have tingling and pain in their lower legs and feet for 12 weeks for no reason. So since everything checks out with my peripheral nervous system, more than likely it's my central nervous system. I'm not really ready to think about this or talk about it. I have no idea what they think or what tests they will do. I just know I'm not excited. When it rains, it pours. I just hope this storm of sickness is almost over and things aren't going to get worse. I do know that I would rather be sick than my kids. I just...don't want to do this neurologist thing. Most medical things don't scare me. This, however, is one that does.
