Finally got a diagnoses

[Bengalz]

Although it is finally good to know what's going on, I wish it was better news. But we all know you are a strong woman and will manage to make the best of the situation. And, you have a wonderful support system - family, friends, PTTalkers and of course, all those amazing little furry nurses to keep you smiling

Each chapter in life has a different purpose - you will find yours and make it special.

Good wishes and hugs from Betty and Eve

Now your dr's will have a plan of treatment knowing what is causing all your problems. Do as they say, take care of yourself and fur posse

I realized there was no hope of saving my job when my ENT threw up his hands in November and said he was at a loss as to what else to do for me. I left that day feeling beaten and crying and I cried all that day. The next morning when I got up and was walking up the hall to make my coffee, I said to myself "You IDIOT! LET GO! LET GOD!" He has always taken care of me before and He will take care of me now so let HIM handle it and that is what I am doing.. Perhaps my time is up on the river because He has better plans for me, something else He wants me to do so I am over having pity parties for myself and looking forwards to what is ahead. I just have to stay afloat for 6 months, then I can officially retire (IF I have to)... then I can get on with whatever He has in his plans for me if I haven't already started with them(?).

I took 1/2 of one of those pills Dr Arriaga gave me last night at bedtime and I woke up this morning without a headache! YEA! I will continue taking them and see if they indeed get rid of the headaches without zonking me out.

I am sure I will cry when I get the official notification the job it terminated but again, I may not. It won't get me down because I have been expecting it and know it is coming and once better, IF i need to, I can do some trip work for other companies like I did before this one hired me....

Sending Lots of Prayers & Huggss..

I'm so sorry, Laura.. what a lot of big huge news to handle all at once. And the fact that you have to lose your job, which you've enjoyed and loved so much, made me sad.

But now.. What a great, fighting attitude you are developing! Good for you.. Girl, you ROCK! (like not just rock 'n' roll but also the Plymouth! )

Letting go and letting God is good! You will come through all this better and stronger than ever.

I'm glad that they know what is going on with you medically now, so they can develop some treatment plans and get you back on keel.

Meanwhile, let your furry nurses give you their extra special Tender Loving Care now, when you really need it and will blossom with it.

Sending loads of love and prayers and healing energies your way..

We love you, and hope everything works out for you. That new medication seems quite promising! You will be in our prayers.

Glad you got a diagnosis. Not knowing is a *itch. Hopefully you'll get more clarification soon on the tumor.

So sorry about the job. Praying that the vertigo gets better.

I can only echo Bengalz's sentiments & hope that this condition doesn't
linger too long. Is it possible to take a leave of absence from your job instead
of giving it up permanently? You always seemed to really like your job and
all the interesting people you worked with there. I also enjoyed the stories
you used to tell about things that happened on your boat trips.

Prayers that some good solution can be found to help you feel better.
