As of Monday August 2nd I have had a constant headache... Some days are worse than others... and the worst ones are unimaginably horrible! Migraines run all through my family on both sides!! Thanks guys for giving me that gene! I have had a migraine or two in the past but never for nearly 2 weeks straight! I went to the Doctor on Friday the 6th to just see what he had to say about them. He simply said "I believe its just migraines.. and you may need a CT Scan or MRI. Come back and see me if it isnt gone by next week." He gave me a prescription and sent me on my marry little way. I leave the office and go straight to get my Rx filled... as soon as it was filled I took the medicine... got home and laid down.
Well in the mean time of these headaches, it was my dads birthday, and Jeremy's birthday. When i am sick i am miserable to be around i am sure!! My dads birthday was the 4th, with a throbbing headache i still managed to cook for him and bake a cake. Little did they know... i left out the vegetable oil in the cake.. lets just say it didnt stick together to well!! HAHA
^ is Todd a good friend of mine and my dads, down below is his beautiful wife and daughter and my best friend/sister figure Ashley and Ella Grace
That is my daddy with his poor poor cake!!
me with the pathetic cake... so embarrassed
it looked so bad but i guess its the thought that counts!
It may look bad but it tasted great! So i cooked for him and we had Ashley, Todd, Ella Grace and my Nana and her husband up to celebrate his birthday! It was a lot of fun I just wished i would have felt better!!!
Anyways, after I went to the Dr on Friday i went to the St. Jude's Rodeo with Ashley and Todd and EG, we met Amy and Lee, Brittany and Bryan, and Katie and Aston there.... they are all very close friends of mine! It was pretty crazy that 3 of the 5 girls are preggers!! and and i am one of the two that are excluded along with Amy!! haha I have a couple of pictures but they will have to be added on another day bc they arent on my computer yet! SORRY!!!
So Saturday, i went to North Carolina to be with Jeremy for his birthday. His birthday was Wednesday the 11th. Once again havent uploaded those pics... there are only 3 though. Boo i know i know!! my camera died and I just didnt plan well i guess?
We went to the lake on Sunday and Sunday night.... another migraine hit! This time it was soooo bad! I came very close to passing out and throwing up but lucky he was there by my side the whole time to make sure i was ok. I am so thankful for that! He has been so caring through all of this that i am going through! I took some of my nausea medicine that the dr gave me and went to sleep. Monday was an alright day, i was just very tired from the nausea med i had taken the night before. I didnt do much Monday, just kind of relaxed. On Tuesday i got another headache but that wasnt going to stop me from what i had planned to do!
Jeremy said he always works on his bday and i just wanted his day to be awesome. I wanted him to come home and just be happy for a change!! So i get this great idea to decorate his house... i know his bday was Wednesday but i didnt care, I was spending Tuesday with him and celebrating a little early!! :-) Well we had already planned to go to his friends house and eat and have cake and stuff soo i figured i might as well decorate and make him even more happy!
I got streamers... hung them from the ceiling.. let me tell you! Hardest thing i have ever done and it looked horrible haha! it was fun though! and at least i tried.. def got an A for effort haha!! I also got him a dozen helium filled balloons and one personalized helium balloon... then I blew up 25 balloons and scattered them all over the floor. It was pretty amazing what i did! i had never done this for anyone soooo this should show how much the kid means to me lol!
We were supposed to be at dinner at 7:30.... and he didnt get home from work till 7:30. he said he came in his road sideways... he said he was furious and just wanted to come home and burn the house down... he said he just wanted to be mad and of course he walks in the door and just smiles... he was so happy and said thank you to me a million times. He was like I was in such a bad mood till i got home and seen all this... i couldnt be mad anymore!! I was so happy to know that i was able to turn his frown upside down :-)
He had to work on his bday but luckily got off at 11:30 so i was still in town and was able to spend some more time with him! He is just such an amazing guy and i am so thankful to have him!!
During all this though, i still had this headache! I took my Rx, i took excedrin... nothing got rid of it! I just knew as soon as i got home Wednesday i was going to the dr.. well that didnt happen because i stayed in NC till like 3:30 just so i could be with Jeremy. Once i left i cried half way home... it is so hard to leave someone you love and know you wont see him for weeks!!! It makes me sick!
So needless to say i didnt get to go to the dr wednesday, but i did go yesterday, thursday the 12th, he took blood and said all my levels look good but he still wanted me to have a CT scan just to make sure nothing was going on upstairs!! So i got a call this morning at about 9:30ish saying i had an appointment to get a CT Scan... i went in the place with a dang headache!! Once i got home i took some of the sample med that the dr gave me yesterday and it just messed my world up. i dont feel like the same Brandi i normally am and i am tired of feeling like this i just want them to figure out what is going on and to fix it!!! I want to be myself again! I want to be able to look in the mirror and smile and actually feel like i look pretty! I just feel like i look like death walking bc i dont feel good.. i dont feel like fixing my hair or puttin on my mascara.. i just want to lay in bed and make this headache go away!!!
Ok i am done complaining and will let everyone know what the CT Scan comes back as!! I just really needed to get all of this out... and this is the best way for me to do it!
Love yall!!
Brandi
