Poor Neglected Blog

The reason I haven't blogged much lately is because I have been hallucinating. I finally got some drugs for my pain and they are causing me to be confused. They're also giving me symptoms of Narcolepsy. At least I hope it's the drugs causing it; I think my dad had Narcolepsy (undiagnosed).

Anyhow, I have been very fatigued as of late. I've pretty much been out of bed to go to appointments and use the restroom. Walking and standing has become unbearable. Truly indescribably painful. It's also embarrassing to be watched trying to get up from a sitting position. It takes a few tries.

I went for the Dexa-scan yesterday to test my bone density. The radiologist was supposed to scan my spine and hips, according to the order. He scanned my forearm instead. He said he can't allow me to get on his table because I exceed the weight limit. I kind of expected that to happen at some point with this disease so I wasn't really surprised. When it was all over with and I got back to the car I started crying pretty heavy though. Cushing's Disease is awful. I hate feeling sorry for myself, but at that moment I felt very sorry for myself.

More later. I have MORE appointments to get to now.
