BREAKING NEWS . . .
Thank you, one and all. for your nice thoughts, prayers, and well wishes. whatever it was that you did, you done it well, and right. and i thank you. :)) someone wrote a song about that once - have you heard it? "and I thaaaanK you..." yep, it wasn't too bad either. so yep - i dedicate that song to y'all. welp, at least i think i do. it's been a long time since i've heard it, so i obviouskly only remember the one line in it :O bleh . just love me.ok -- what do ya wanna know first? how bout the part i learned first.. how's that?
k.. first 'news' i got today was the call from the pain doc, about the MRI results.
the good= nope. no tumor. thank God. yes i did think it was a possibility. it always crosses my mind to tell the truth. i haven't 'felt well' for several years, and no doctor in the country has been able to tell me why that is. except for the one who diagnosed me with Addison's disease about 5 or six years ago. that explained and still does, alot of why i feel bad - but not enough. i still search for some other - illness, syndrome, or mystery diagnosis.. of some sort or another. i need dr. House. yesterday.
but regardless of any of that... the MRI was clear of any and all 'abnormalities'. oh really? well shit. this is of course aside from the already diagnosed crap like 'facet joint arthritis' at L-4 and L-5. and 'stenosis' , and friggin some other 'thing with a fancy name for bad and never ending pain.
prognosis? meds. have the steroid injections on monday and hope for the best. if the shots do no good, follow up with some kind of other fancy and expensive diagnostic scan from another 'specialist'. hmmm... love the fancy words 'they' use that so easily slip my mind. but once again, when i know more- you will know more.
oh, sorry -- the bad and the ugly is in there somewhere -- ya just have to sift around a bit to find it-- i forgot i was writin 'that way' .
and next? the labs are obviously a hurry up and wait - all the time. but the dip-stick pee test seemed ok. the blood will be a while.
i think that about covers it?
we went out for dinner earlier -- it was good , and a good time. we had our 'Easter Dinner" because soulman will be out of town for his fishing tournament, and soulkid, apparently has plans with her hunny boy, and audrey will be here for a few days before her return to California -- so we shall just be cleanin up the soul - crib and chillin for the next few days.
other than that? not much else to say right now--
hope your nights are happy ones out there in your worlds.
can't rightly complain-- too much, - about mine.

Glad everything is OK so far....or as OK as it can be anyway. At least there is no tumor. So stop thinking that!!!!! You sound good. I can almost hear the relief in your written words. Sleep well. Have a wonderful Easter too. Hugs, C
We ate at Outback last evening, too. We always enjoy eating there - food's is good. Harry can have prime rib and I don't have to.
Our Easter dinner will be here. Harry is grilling steaks and Mary is making salad and veggies. I'm making dessert. It's a real treat for me to have Gathering Day and not be in the kitchen all morning. The little ones and a couple of neighborhood grandkids will have an egg hunt in the late afternoon. We heard a rumor that the Easter Bunny was hiding eggs all around out house.
Hope you have a nice quiet pleasant Easter Sunday.
I worked as an Oncology nurse for years. The first thought I have when something goes wrong is that I'm dying of Cancer. :) I think we are all a little nuts, Soul.
So glad they found nothing that ominous. But at the same time, hoping they DO find something fixable so your pain is relieved.
Happy Saturday!
Hugs...

Thank goodness you don't have a tumor lurking in there somewhere and the doc news can help to reassure you. They'll get it figured out! I'm a-praying for you!
I'm happy that you are enjoying our housebuilding project. All the fun of watching it and WE get to write out the checks, LOL. Lordy, I am getting really good at writing out those 5-digit number checks over and over and over. It's all like Monopoly money after a while! It seems so silly too, because we'll whoop and celebrate when the grocery story will double our 50 cent coupons, and then we spend megabucks on the house. LOL, we're hanging on for the ride and enjoying the process!
Well Good...that worry is gone! Hope you can start feeling better girl!

Oh man, not more meds! I'm glad to hear the MRI was clean though. I hope you and Soul Clan have a very Happy Easter. :))
Oh my dear,
I had no idea you were going through all this, and still comforting me!
I know what's like to fear a tumor; you're almost certain there is one, somewhere, and the doctors have missed it somehow. But an MRI is a very reliable test (I should know,) so if the doc says there's no tumor, you can believe him.
I am feeling much better now, and I hope you can soon say the same.

Wonderful news...and a relief to the whole family, I'm sure.
Have a great Easter today. What are your plans?
Hugs. :)
I'm here :) You're there. You and me both are going to be fine...one day and between now and then, we'll keep each other smiling okay? And poking.
I may not blog but I DO think about you often woman!
My poor monkey doesn't stand a chance lately. Glad you come by and feed him!! ((HUGS))
Happy Easter Friend!!!
