The word of the day is....

pain.

Well, actually it's been the word of the past like 14 days. Or more. And I'm tired of being it. And I hate it. And it doesn't seem to want to go away. And it has fucked with my well-being. And my attitude. And my psyche. Shabu Shabu won't even make me feel better. Not even Chick Fil A.

I've been in a pretty bad mood most of today. Poor John. I told him. "I'm sorry I'm being such a stupid wench" and he said, "No, you're being a reaonably intelligent wench." Yes, I have a good husband. Except he has promised to let me introduce him to froyo, and he keeps breaking it! OMG Red Velvet FoYo could quite possibly help me feel better. 


Went to the physical therapist today. I'm of course very weak in my left leg. Right leg isn't much better, but oh well. I have some exercises to do. I have to do lab work tomorrow and then I see my PCP next Friday.

That' s all I feel like writing about.

On Saying Goodbye: Leaving Boston after 17 Years

Dear Boston and all the people who have been in our lives: Thank you for the (just shy of!) 17 Years! What a beautiful city this is. It was such a privilege to call Boston home. You were worst of times (cancer, other health issues, losing Chaucer and Dante, job losses/ unemployments on both ends) but you were mostly the best of times (meeting the best people, having Oliver, completing advanced degrees, advancing in our careers, growing as people). You quite literally saved my life.. While some memories are quite triggering, they are reminders of strength and perseverance. And I am filled with thanks having been in the right place at the right time . Now here comes a waterfall of photos   Us in our early days here, circa 2008 Our graduations from Boston College in 2012 and 13 respectively  (I was pregnant and didn’t yet know in this pic!) Oliver’s birth in 2014 When i first moved here, I was not city savvy. I was not public transit savvy. And I HATED the cold and snow.  17...

Pain Management and How Much I Hate My Gastroenterologist.

So I finally met my pain management team today. The "team" consists of a pain psychologist and a pain physiologist. The appointment was set up a few months ago and it was great to finally see them today. Pain psychologist is really nice but WAY too touchy feely for me- don't know how to explain it but maybe it's just jarring to have a doctor other than my primary care doctor to actually react to the pain I've been describing. I've felt like I've been psychotic all these years. i'm finally vindicated. Well, I felt vindicated when I wrote my first entries of this blog. But YEAH. Anyway I need pain management because the pain comes and goes at random times and stays for ranodm amounts of time and the pain is intense... I mean really intense.I've been in a 'spat' for the last few days, so I'm happy I actually saw the pain doctor when I felt the pain- I usually see my doctors before the pain starts or after a bad spat. Never during. so hu...
