blah blah blah blah

I am in the last week of this semester.  Tired is the only way I can describe how I feel about it.  It's funny how much energy it takes to write papers and do power points.  Only one more paper to do, then a little break.  Yay!!!
My legs were not cooperating with me today.  My muscles ache like I ran a gazillion miles.  I took a nice long nap to recuperate just from going to Costco.  We were there for an hour and a half, but I feel like we walked all day long.  I have a headache, my legs ache, and even my ache's ache :0)  
And may I say, Thank God for leftovers.  I don't like to waste food, so I put all my leftovers in tupperwares in the freezer.  Days like today, I can take out a nice dinner from our freezer.  Today was Steak fajitas.  They were even better than the first day. Some days we have a potpourri of little meals when there is only a serving or two in the freezer.  Sometimes on days that I feel terrific, I make an extra meal just to freeze. That way we can eat a home cooked meal on days like today without all the work.  Although I have to say my hubby can cook pretty well, but he has so much on his plate already (no pun intended LOL).

freaky

SO I have been having some freaky symptoms since September, each day they get progressively worse.  I don't know what they mean, although the neurologist told me that it may mean I have a lesion on my cerebellum.  I thought just plan old vertigo was bad, I have had that off and on for a little while. However, since September, I even get vertigo that wakes me up from my sleep.  I roll over to my right side and it's as if the world is spinning.  I wake up feeling nauseated.  Now it's progressed to the point of when I look up, or tilt my head to the right, I get this sick feeling in my stomach and the world is turning. This is a little frightening to me.


I can't just roll out of bed anymore either.  Seems that my balance is at it's worse when I just wake up.  At least when I fall, I fall back onto the bed.  I may have already wrote about this, but my memory is just not that keen.  It's funny because I used to remember even the tiniest of detail, as well as very intelligent.  Now I can't seem to finish a conversation without forgetting what the topic was or without being able to articulate what is in my head.


The little electricity thing is back in full force as well.  Whenever I move my head up or down, side to side, I get the feeling of what I can only describe as static electricity across my shoulders and down my spine.  Very bizarre sensation.  L'Hermittes sign is what they call it.
