Hello Everyone,
So what’s Darian been up too? Not much. Since the last entry I’ve been dealing with a new mixture of the same old shit. My memory issues were getting down right scary. They put me on a new med to help my memory and took me off a drug that was know to create memory issues. In my case, it was making my issues worse.
End result? My mind is usually quieter and my memory still sucks. It has toned down a bit. I am a believer in lists and instructions now.
They also took me off a med that may inhibit sweating. I still don’t sweat. 74 F is my border line temp. At that temp I am uncomfortable and will start a slow cook. As long as I am careful to not move around much I can tolerate it for a while, barely.
They also changed my sleep med. My brain is still on a 1 1/2 hour sleep cycle. The new medicine doesn’t seem to do much. I still wake up, but at least I can go back to sleep.
I now have four lower appendages. Two legs, a dingle dangle that lies to itself and says it’s a leg too, and my cane. I am now using a cane per doctor’s orders. I have a new tendency to bust my ass. I actually hurt my left shoulder due to a fall. I think I cracked my rotator cuff. Since I have no insurance I have to let it heal on it’s own. The last time I did this it took two years to heal.
