This Too Is Becoming Normal

Since I am normal based on all the blood work then I guess this is the new normal for me. Yesterday was a good day yet tiring. I spend the day with my sister and brother tiling the counters of my Aunt's kitchen. First day in weeks that I was not burning and it kind of freaked me out. However, by days end it was coming back and I have been like a blow torch all day today. Right now I am logging this information while sitting here with a unique little ice pack called Peas because it is designed like a frozen bag of peas so it can conform to whatever you need it to. I am at least cooling off but eventually like all ice packs it will lose its coolness in the face of the fire before it and I will have to place it back in the freezer so it can rest. Wish I could just sit in a freezer.

It was good to spend time with my family and watch my sweetie daughter wear out all of the elders in the family with her need for constant entertainment. By the way, Doctor #3 has given in to my constant harassment and has decided that I might be perimenopausal and is putting me on some low grade estrogen pills. I can not start taking them for a couple of weeks but at least it is something. I go on Tuesday to have the nerve conduction testing done and will let you know how that goes.

Another summer of joy! Last summer I thought I had horrible heartburn only to find out it was a bad gall bladder that we finally removed in October. I am going to start praying now that next summer is less medical!
