My turn- saw my PMD yesterday

Well actually I saw his PA. This is only my third time to see her in the past year and she's really nice. She just looks in my file and writes my scrips exactly how he writes them out. Doesn't try to change up anything.

So I got my Fentora refilled but not my patches because I got those last week. I forgot to get my script last time I was there (I go every 15 days) so last week they left my fentanyl patch script at the front desk for me to pick up.

I been doing real good and feel so much better since my brain surgery in March. I also had surgery in May but the surgery in March is what made me feel much better.

I have a doctor appt this morning with my surgeon to get my brain MRI results from last week. Wish me luck!

PS- off topic......think I may take Oliver with me this morning and we can stop at chuck e cheese for lunch! I mean, if chuck e cheese doesn't help your pain, I don't know what will :)

Its nice to read posts that pain is managed and drs are actually doing their jobs ina proffessional manner.
Mmmmm chunky cheese sounds fun.

I think we should have a chronic pain patient meetup at Chuck E Cheese. What do you guys think? Hehehe...

I am at the doctor now waiting to see my surgeon. I am so nervous and scared my tumors may already be growing back. Just gotta stay positive, right!? He said they were grade 2 so that's why we have to watch. He told me that after he removed them.

 

     ...LOL!...I would need earplugs if it's a full house!   But it would be fun to meet members!

Bahaha Tina about the xanax! You guys are so funny. I guess I never mentioned it but I am deaf. I lost my hearing when I was 16yrs old to two brain tumors on my brain stem. The doctors said I am lucky to be alive. Each one of those surgeries was 18 hours long. I lip read and talk and you would never know I am 100% deaf.

We just left Chuck E Cheese. Oh lord. That place was packed. But Oliver had a great time. The adults drive me crazy more than the kids, haha. They are the ones that push and are rude. I am just too nice to deal with people like that. Next time I will take a shot of Jim Bean before we go. Haha.

Well my brain doc said everything looked "perfect" those were his exact words. And he also said all my other brain tumors that are still there look great as well. But he said there are a few he wants to check again in 6 months.

(and Oliver says hi)

Oh ETA (edit to add) I do go to the PMD every 15 days because my Fentora is script as a 15 day supply. But most the time he will give me two scrips and post them. But sometimes I tell him I like coming every 15 days in case there is anything I need to talk to him about. That way I always have an appt in case of emergencies

LOL Shell. I totally agree with you but it's a tad easier for me since I am deaf my world is quiet and peaceful all around, lol. I see everyone running around screaming but with no noise coming out! It does wonders for my sanity when Oliver ask to go to Chuck E Cheese, lol.

Thanks again everyone. I am so happy that my MRI looked perfect. I have these bumps on my forehead coming from under my skin. Looks like a bone sticking up. He said its the hardware (rods and screws and plates) that moved and now you can see it poking out. It don't look bad but it's weird. When my hair grows back I may grow some bangs to cover my forehead.

I hate this diease but thankful I am doing well. Oliver will be DNA on August 28. :sigh:
