Where have we been?

November 30th, 2017 Hello and thank you for stopping in to check out our blog!  While talking to Tim earlier today, he asked why I have not kept up with my weekly Youtube videos or blog and I could not give him a reason other than thinking that no one cares to read these or follow our journey. He made a great point replying that its not about who cares or who reads it, but for me to use it as a source of "venting". So here I am, to give some updates, to "vent" and get back on this blogging saddle :) -Brooke Updates on Tim: Tim has been doing a wonderful job getting back to his regular self. He has visited a neurologist after his amnesia episode. The neurologist verified that Tim did indeed have Transient Global Amnesia and also has likely been having Partial Focal Seizures for most of his life, and that a medication he was on likely lowered the seizure threshold. He's been doing great and I am so proud of him. Infertility Update: I finally decided to re...

Crazy Week - Surgery Options and Husband Hospitalized Unexpectedly

Image
Last Week: (Please read until the end, thank you <3) Monday: Met my new Urologist, who was AMAZING. Gave me three options, two of which include surgery and I need to decide by my appointment next month which method of surgery I choose. Tuesday: While getting ready to leave my house and head into work, I receive a phone call from my husband's work that he has no idea where he is, what is going on, etc. I arrive there in a record breaking 6 minutes, where I meet my husband in the jail lobby and he does not recognize me. He had no idea who I was as far as my name or being married, didn't know where we were at or what had happened. He also was repeating questions over and over every few minutes. It was a bit difficult to get him to get into my car, however his LT. and the 911 coordinator both assisted. Once in the car my husband repeatedly asked where we were at, what happened, and where we were going. Even though I would answer his questions, he would quickly forget.  Pr...

Second Opinion: Interstitial Cystitis

7/7/17 Today I visited my new Urologist. In the first few minutes he already suggested that I had Interstitial Cystitis, which my primary care provider had previously suggested. My Uro. gave a list of suggested food and drinks to remove from my diet and to begin taking Prelief . He also gave me several information packets on suggestions of what my next steps should be, including: Interstim , Botox , and also one where a nerve in my ankle would be stimulated. Of course each comes with their own pro and con. I go back in one month to see if any changes have helped from the Prelief and what I choose as my next treatment option.
