Doing pretty good today. This morning when fixing breakfast I was fighting feeling orthostatic. That means I usually just give up and sit down to fix the meal and Dan's lunch. After he went to work I layed down for about an hour. Max curled up with me under the quilt. (of course we were on the couch--my buddy).
I feel pretty good, but not as well as I did on Monday. I'm having some cp and tiredness. But, still I feel better than I did this time last week.
I received my packet from Vanderbilt yesterday. I have two appointments on Jan 31st. The first one is for some basic autonomic testing at 1230. Then, I actually see the doctor at 2:30pm. They also sent several forms for me to fill out. Some to bring back with me to my appointment and some that I need to fill out and fax back immediately. They will use those faxed forms to determine if it would be more appropriate to see me as an inpatient vs. an outpatient.
There are a couple of motels that provide medical discounts for Vanderbilt clients. One is a Days Inn. I guess I need to start hunting for plane tickets. Due to the time of year, we will have to fly out of Casper. The roads and weather are far too unpredictable at that time of year.
And speaking of unpredictable weather-SNOW!!! Everywhere. I worked out in the garden/greenhouse yesterday for about 2 hours moving things into the greenhouse and trying to salvage what I could in case it frosted. Who knew we would get soooo much snow. Had I known it was going to snow I would have done somethings differently. Oh, well.
I skate today for 1/2 an hour and then we start AWANA's tonight at church.
So, I will be taking it easy for the rest of the day to conserve my energy!
