Worms, Sounds and What-Not's

The worms have been acting up something fierce today...I mean as in all day squirming about my left skull. Have had the misfortune of several facial spasms as a bonus pleasure principle. Pain in my cervical spine is intermittening. It is necessary for me to call She in the morrow as the pain has spread to the right side of my neck. Yes, I am doing traction, warm compress and exercise to assist, but um, these issues are beginning to become more than bothersome already. I really need another doctor to "inquire" as to taking another look and see at those MRI's - shit, there's a pair there already! This doctor has run up my hospital/doctor bills for bleeding what exactly?! I don't know! A pinched nerve? Fine. Degenerative Bone Disease? Okay...BUT WHAT TO DO NOW?! No more sending me around the county for poking and probing. This CT or that MRI! No more laboratory visits and She Who Intemidates Me, must speak to me with more than steroids and breif chats. We need to talk, Honey. These Funky Worms are working the stress factors for sure...

...then to piggy back this with the sounds of trains, air boats and planes in my back yard, "somebody/someone is in my attic"...beeps, beeps and more peeps than a peek show. Times come when there is no sound. Still. The plopping continues. My Deaf left ear still picks up secret transmissions from WW II...seldom is my Deaf ear Deaf...it seems.

I have fought like hell the past few days. This pony is red and I'll name him, Runs With Fierce Strength! I tasked and did many reps with my kettle-weight. It's only ten pounds, but I feel the changes in my arms. It's not a tough-throw-about type of routine. These are more to stress the muscles and get the blood to flow in at a healthier pace. Am taking small walks too. For the moment, "no comment" on the weight piece. Have not weighed in since prior to Easter...

...am afraid. And, I will not say what happened to my sugar level neither. Child please, I thought I would puke...still fighting to bring it back down to where I want it. It's not like it went all crazy, but crap, there sure was a spike! Whew! Back on the case.

Dizziness and nausea was so bad earler I thought I was going to go into a state of shock and really feared fainting...and I was home alone too. What a dreadfull experiance! I did have productive nauseua. Have sweated like a bareback pony carrying an over-weight passenger...true, I am over-weight, but I don't ride bare back...and yes, I took my medicines as prescribed...and I took the day as directed.

Went to see Dr. Bea, today. Had my BAHA, Bone Achored Hearing Aid, aka The Processor, reprogramed. Good visit and I have my BAHA back! Good-goodness, I sure did miss it.

I lived today with mucho gusto, worked my plan for better health, walked with purpose and rode the mess out of my pony, Runs With Fierce Strength. Today was a good day to die...Today was also one fine day to be alive.

I pray all Relations had a blessed Easter. Mine was picture perfect. A brother, father, husband and uncle surrounded by sisters, my bride and my daughters - Gaia included, and my neice and wonderful nephews. Oh, and the food!
