A quick post just to say hello and to also let you know that I am off to my Mum's in Surrey tomorrow evening and then on to hospital on Tuesday.
Tuesday will be MRI scan day (with contrast this time as kidney function is all good so we're all systems go!). This will be followed by a quick break and then a psychology appointment- not something I am too familiar with as yet because this is a new person I will be seeing who is an addition to my vocational rehabilitation team who are helping me back to work. And then, like a day at the races, the all important 4:30pm race, no on a more serious note I mean my appointment, where I will have the MRI scan results and meet with my Neurologist. I hope he's ready as my little black book now consists of a ton of questions related to everything I've been experiencing with Bertie Tickle stuff, medications and epilepsy.
I started back at work around 2 weeks ago. I'm currently doing very reduced hours and duties so I am not being pushed too much at the moment but I continue to experience fatigue which can be very difficult to deal with as I want to keep going but the body says no! Anyways as a way to remedy some of this I have returned to my local gym and I have a program in place to hopefully help me build a bit more stamina as until now I haven't felt ready, mainly due to the fear I live with about having a seizure but I figured as things have been relatively stable now for 7 months in the seizure department that I am good to go and can at least try- I have to admit it feels good to be back in the rhythm of going to the gym as I find when I am there that I just sort of stop thinking about anything and it feels like I'm looking after my body (and soul!) so that's all good for me.
I will post again in the next few days following my appointments.
With loads of love,
Gem xx
