Post Surgery

Post Surgery

It's been about over half a month results came in nothing found which is/isn't great news it's always this kinda limbo you find yourself in when you are having trouble and the best answers so far are "we've excluded things"

I recovered well but I have a very bad reaction to Anesthesia I can't remember if I talked about this so I'll briefly talk about this I had to be restrained first time but was fine after a short time just very sad.

I Also still haven't done things since the surgery like withdraw from a unit a Tafe to redo at a later date, look at the next unit, Volenteer shift have been a bit dodgy.

Worse is my medication compliance I take a lot of medication and it's life saving, I think this year I've been poked and prodded so much I'm just exhausted from taking my daily.

My neurologist is thinking on Psychogenic non-epeleptic seizures as a diagnosis for an earlier event in the year but PNES is quite confronting as diagnosis; mainly due to the difficulty with my diagnosis of epilepsy and the stigma from my family I already face for my health issues. To make matters worse since the a diagnostic tool way taken off the market it's gonna be that extra hard and costly to do it.

So yeah that's been my month kinda summary, I'm having sleep issues still but may have some help with that from a foundation advice, and my GP is always helpful.

Hi @Trickster

It sounds like you have been going through a lot of issues lately. I wouldn't blame you if you were struggling with things.

I hope the doctors/specialists you are seeing can help you.

Take care

xoxo
