Medical Health Update !!

Well, seeing the neurologist was a HUGE waste of time because she really didn't give a shit at all. I went in for ear/head pain and she said 'I don't want to talk about your ear, just your head' which I guess I get, she's a Neurologist and she still gave me nothing. No help other than meds that uh...may cause a headache ... ? Yeah, because that makes sense. She also spent over an hour going on tangents about random shit that didn't matter, like how jet-lag works and some poor guy who almost lost his leg after a war. Yeah, I dunno, I think she liked hearing herself talk.
Then I go to another doctor (I see again next week to see how I'm doing ) who diagnosed me with TMJ and an increased pulse rate which along with the ear pain could cause the headaches. Go figure! She put me on meds that are helping a lot with pain and my pulse ( which I may need to go up on, we'll see. ) and I should eventually see a dentist for a mouth guard because I am a clencher/grinder. Oh, and unlike the Neuro, this doctor actually cared about my past medical issues and what not. Like, she's really getting me on track to be healthy-ish again. So Kudos to her.
I'm getting better, we're getting there. Which is good. Which I do hope means more art in the future. I know, I'm slacking. It's not that I don't want to do art, it's just it's hard to do when most of my time I'm in pain. But process is being made and that matters. I'm getting to a good place. So, thumbs up!
