I have been doing a lot of thinking about my health, and I want to put forth as much effort as I can to try and make it better.
I am one on the overweight side. I plan to get serious about dieting and try to lose weight. I can finally continue taking Bio30 to try to slow these tumors. I recently found an article that a Japenese food helps block or inhibit PAK which is part of the vicious cycle of NF. I plan to start taking the tablet form of this. If I couldnt’ find a tablet though, I would be willing to eat this Japanese food. Like my dad said, “If it’s a cure, who cares if it taste good?”
I stopped taking Bio30 around the time we moved to North Carolina. I was having bad balance and nausea, so I didn’t know when or if I would ever need emergency surgery. You are supposed to stoptaking bio30 2 weeks before and after surgery so that you do not bleed out in surgery and are able to heel afterwards. Now that I know I will not have to have emergency surgery, or shouldn’t, anytime soon, I feel safe resuming taking it.
Yesterday I felt horrible. I had a terrible headache. I had been doing very well and hadn’t even had any pain pills. But yesterday I woke up with a headache and it just got worse throughout the day. Thankfully, it’s gone today. If I still had it today I was going to call the doctor and see what he thought. I was starting to worry that even though I knew it wasn’t a SF leak, it could have been fluid build up on the brain. But today it’s not as bad, so that’s something to be happy about.
For now I am doing well and I go back to see my doctor later this week. Hopefully he gives me the go ahead to lift my son again. I miss him so much. Do you have any idea how boring it is around here without him tugging on my arm, yelling “momma!” He fills up my day more than I think because when he’s not here I just don’t know what to do with myself.
Thanks for reading and I’ll be back to let you know how things are going with me soon.
By the way, I got my comments fixed, so feel free to comment and know that I will recognize it.
