Today I saw Dr. Hamilton my Neuro-Opthamologist at Swedish. He checked out my vision and determined to place a prism in my left lens of my glasses. I will also possibly have a prism in my right lens eventually. The purpose of the prism is to help correct the the double vision that I sometimes experience and to help me focus. He is not clear if this problem will go away or not. If it goes away fantastic; however, if it does not I will have permanent prisms placed in my glasses. I also got a new pair of prescription sunglasses today and I really like them.
After Dr. Hamilton I saw my internal med doctor. She said I still have my lifting and driving restrictions. I also cannot bend over. She also agreed with Dr. Piker that I may have dizziness the rest of my life so the physical therapist is teaching my body to accommodate. This is not a fun process, but whatever it takes to recover.
I see my Neurologist Dr. Piker next week. The medication that he has me on has been working out well so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. This recovery has been taking a lot longer than I thought but I'm so thankful for everyone who has helped me during this process. I have been learning a lot and I'm so thankful to be alive during this holiday season. It truly is going to be a special Christmas for our family this year! Thanks for your continued prayers I really feel and have felt my Savior's love for me.
every trial in my life has brought me to THIS place.....a place where nothing is perfect but everything is great. i wouldn't change a thing. OK MAYBE A FEW THINGS!!!!
