View THEFATCHICK's food & exercise for this day
I saw my primary Dr last night, he's putting me out on temporary disability until 6/17, still waiting on test results but the preliminary MRI which was read by a radiologist and still has to be read by a neurologist is showing a spot. The radiologist doesn't know what it is, apparently only the neurologist can determine that and I still haven't reveived the results from the EEG. This would explain the constant 24/7 headache and memory issue since the seizure I'm guessing if not then why???
Last night was a rough night for me...I hope to hear from the neurologist today or tomorrow regarding the test results. I haven't said anything to my family yet about what I was told last night I'm going to wait until I know for sure because I just can't handle dealing with that right now and I don't want to worry them uless I absolutely have to especially with the recent passing of my aunt...everyone is emotionally on edge and I just don't have it in me to be strong for myself and for them right now. I get tired so easy.
I called Elle lay night, she told me to put my gym membership on a medical hold until July so they don't bill me she said I can always release it anytime with a doctors note. It killing me not working out for two weeks and now another two weeks (minimum) ugh...but my weight is maintaining so I guess that's good but I feel like I'm going backwards. Elle has been great she checks on me every Tuesday and Thursday and text me over the weekend, she is awesome!
My kids and husband are taking the news okay, of course we don't know anything right now for sure but my husbands mom had a brain tumor and his sister has one so he and my kids are a little sensitive when they hear anything about the brain. My youngest suppresses negative emotions so as long as she talking openly to me about it, I'm not going to be too worried...but I'm a mom so I always worry.
Okay getting tired, going to go and I'm promising in front of all of you that I will not allow myself to emotional eat today.
Have a good day everyone.

So sorry about the potentially scary news, but a spot can be a lot of things that aren't malignant. Keep your hopes up, and I hope you won't have to wait too long.

I agree with TD - not knowing is hard as well as the waiting for the answers. Take one day at time and try not to worry until you get answers. Then you'll be able to deal with whatever the diagnosis is.
Good luck!

not knowing is probably the hardest part.
