I did it again. Unintentionally, but here it is 9 months since I last posted.
I'm sorry I've been away. I will try to do better. Life just has a funny way
interrupting you.
After two years I caught it. I got Covid for my birthday. I told the giver to
return it as I didn't want it, but it was apparently nonreturnable.
Lingering affects of it: Covid fatigue, Covid fog (on top of the already
existing Fibro Fog...it's awful y'all), and there might be a third thing
but I'm trying and hoping I'm not overreacting or seeing zebras when it's
only horses.
I get an MRI in 2 weeks or so to find out what's going on with me. It's
going to be of my lumbar area, though I really think she should have
asked for a full spine. Especially since I may end up with an upper series
anyway. Either way, I'm hoping for some answers.
PT is helping a little bit. But Covid set me way back. It's like I'm basically
starting over...almost. And with the fatigue, it's making it ever slower
going.
We rescued another cat. He is number nine in our current family of cats.
He's also the youngest as he's now around 7-9 months old. We believe
he was thrown from a vehicle. It took over a month to catch him. Part of that
time he had disappeared. He has neurological deficits in his hind legs. For
a bit there he wasn't even able to use the box without human assistance.
At his most recent visit, he was up to almost 9 lbs. He will be on prednisone
for the rest of his life. We are in the process of finding he lowest effective
dose. The vet said that while he may not have a long life of say 15-18 years,
we can hope for at least 5 good years with him. We've named him Jack.
I wish you all a very Happy New Year. May it be better than the last two years.
