I caved

After trying Claritin, a nap, Dramamine, and still nearly throwing up on the drive back from the CVS (which is maybe two miles from my front door), I called my doctor's office. I'm waiting for a call back. This probably means a prescription and a doctor's appointment early next week.

It also means a referral to Dr. McKenna in Boston and my yearly MRI if it doesn't clear up quickly. Three years of no neuroma growth means that this is probably related to my sinuses, but if that little @#$!$!@#$! is growing and I need treatment, better to find out now and see whether I'm a better candidate for radiation or surgery. I'm still about ten years too young to be a good radiation candidate under the current protocol, but it would be a lot easier and cleaner than brain surgery.

This is not a good way to start the year.

I love my doctor

She's calling in a script for me. Of course this means I have to drive to CVS and (God willing) not crash the car, but at least I'll be okay until next week.

Thanks for the good thoughts, guys. I appreciate it.
