Re: rough time
BBQ lunch with neighbours was actually quite nice thanks @outlander . I managed to drag hubby home about 3pm and he went straight to bed and didnt wake up until 6pm. Just in time for a light dinner. So it was a pretty easy afternoon all up.
The wind picked up this afternoon however, and it got really strong and gusty. Stirred up a few nearby fires and some spot fires broke out. So its back to the thick shroud of smoke here again. Hope it clears by morning.
How was your day? I read that you are really concerned about your apt tomorrow. Please be strong and voice your very legitimate concerns to them. I'm off to bed now ... so will bid you a good night. I hope you manage to get some sleep, or at least some decent rest through the night. Is it a morning or afternoon appointment? I will be thinking of you, and will look forward to hearing how you got along.

Re: rough time
Really glad it was a nice time @Former-Member 💌
I hope the smoke clears quickly and fires are controlled more again now. Such an intense time being around fires .
Its an arvo appt but i have to leave before midday to ensure i get there on time. Have a few things to do beforehand so ill be up abit earlier. Im taking my sister, normally wouldnt cause of school but im in need of a break but dont want to go on my own. Shes getting out half hr before the train s ok will be at school for abit. Feel abit sorry for pop cause he likes to go on a train and doesnt mind coming with me. Ill take him on another but just to next town over or something. Havent been feeling to good physically and his gross habits make it harder to stay settled when im already feeling sick. Will make an appt tomorrow to see a nurse or gp within next few days to check things are in place too. Had 2 cramps that basically put me on the floor. Those sort havent happened for nearly a week. Not sure if thats normal or not at this point so will just get checked to be sure.
Goodnight @Former-Member hope you sleep ok 💕

Re: rough time
Sorry to hear that @outlander . Do you see the surgeon again soon or is that it? Did they make any suggestions? What are your plans for the rest of today?

Re: rough time
the surgeon said I don't have any options. surgery is to extensive and might make things worse. no other treatment options except to take pain relief when I need it. have to see her once a month to make sure its not getting any worse till it reaches the 6 month mark and then that's basically it. told her about all the symptoms I was having and how it was impacting me. she told me to just live my life and theres to reason I have to talk about it anymore. she said that I knew what the risks were and it was my decision whether to go ahead or not.
I said what about the ability to chew, she said it may/may not get better over some time so stick with soft foods as I don't have to overwork my jaw. she said the speech would be unlikely that its caused by that. I said it only started after I had the surgery but didn't get a response.
didn't say anything about the lumps or frequent ulcers except to be careful not to burn my mouth or bite my cheek/lips etc.
she said reason I keep getting headaches is because my right side of my jaw is get really bad muscle spasms. she could feel it when she was assessing. use heat packs and pain relief.
