Be kind to yourself

3 Positives:
another birthday card completed
design for July cards finalized — need a quick print this morning to make sure it’s right
spent a bit of time sketching and coloring in Procreate late last night — a great way to relax

Our Journey Notes:
Dr called to discuss the results of the MRI. Neuro has been pushed back a bit longer, feels that a Spinal Orthopedist is the next step to treat the current issues. He was to have his nurse get that started ASAP. New problems were abundant yesterday, not so much overnight or this morning. Not sure why I had such a bad morning yesterday – lots of balance and vertigo issues. I’ve had a couple of similar spells in the last few weeks, but yesterday was BAD. Let’s add Lheritte’s Sign and arthritis in two areas of my cervical spine to the “getting old sucks” mix for me. Brain scan is in the future if the vertigo and balance issues continue/worsen between now and the appointment with the new specialist. Those possible dx do scare me. Not what I wanted to hear or have to think about at this point in time. In the meantime, while we wait for that referral to go through, we’ll hope that things will clear up and I’ll not have to worry about the brain scan for a long while.
