I felt really ripped off this morning when I got up & realised that it had rained overnight, & i had not heard it! Dang!
Have had major very worrying developments with my daughter (the one who had the sporting injury). I think her body is revolting against the medication she's been on for 14 months now. She had a heart palpitation type of episode last night, she is noticeably more tired, & has permanent headache & low grade nausea. Not even hospital grade prescription stuff helps her.
This has been a very long, frustrating, heartbreaking journey for us all, & it feels like it will never end. It has taken a toll on each of us. She has very short 'good' patches, she puts it that she is 'sick of feeling like rubbish'. I am struggling mentally. It's hard not to cry, it's hard not to lose confidence at times. I have to keep going for her - just like other Mums do when their kids need them. I have become very good at negotiating getting good appts, & researching & asking lots of questions, & getting what I want for her. I overheard her say to her twin sis once "Don't worry, Mum's the master negotiator, she always gets what she wants..." It's the best of compliments, IMO!
It's hard with this because she so looks so normal on the outside, but the inside is what's problematic. I am going to ask whether a head scan would be good idea, what with all the headaches & nausea, just to rule out something stemming from there.
Pls cross your fingers for her, she just wants to get on with her life, & be the gorgeous 16 year old without all the health problems. Off to the doc today...
