Default Specialist appointment! YES!

YEsterday, I decided to call the office of the physiatrist I was referred to. I wanted to ensure I was on the cancellation list... I wasn't! So I asked to be put on, and the receptionist indicated she might be able to slide me in for thursday... she had already offered the appointment to someone else, but if they had not contacted her by the next (now this) morning, the appointment was mine. I called at 11, and she was giving them till noon... well, she just called and I got the appointment! I am utterly thrilled.

I am also kind of glad that I am off the progesterone so they can see the full effects of the concussion... ME at my worst rather than at my best I guess you could say.

I'm also up for a very part time job teaching at a college in Toronto. It's only about three hours a week, teaching photography and photoshop... I would LOVE to have this job, so prayers to help with this would really be appreciated... It doesn't start till september too, so I still have recovery time as well!

When resting, symptoms are low. With exertion, I still suffer from fatigue, migraines, vision problems, problems thinking or reading, troubles sleeping, issues finding or getting words to my mouth when the headaches are bad, tinnitus, and thyroid issues which I think are due to the concussion. Seen one specialist, and now a few others through insurance review of my case. Hoping for further treatment.
