My neck has been really stiff the past couple of days and I'm wondering if it has something to do with the cold? We've had a freezing cold front move through and it's colder here than it has been all year... Last time my neck was stiff was when we came down from the mountains in California after playing in the snow. It was cold then too...
I see my nuerologist next month though and schedule my next MRI. Those two will give me some more answers.
I do feel better today though, which is great since tonight's Bible Study and tomorrow my husband runs his first 1/2 marathon. :-D
A few of my favorite songs...
About Me
- Jessica (I've survived a brain tumor!)
- The weekend after Thanksgiving 2007, my back was killing me. I figured that it might be a kidney infection with the holiday season approaching, finals at school, and a busy time at work. I bounced around to a couple different doctors before ending up in the hospital on December 15. During that time period, my left side became numb. After an MRI, the doctor said something that I least expected to hear, "You have a lesion on your brain". On December 17, I underwent emergency surgery to remove a Juvenile Pilocytic Astrocytoma (brain tumor) from my cerebellum. The tumor had fingers that had spread into my brain stem. With a lot of physical therapy, doctors visits, and family support - I can now drive again, walk again, and am working as a RN on the exact same neurology/orthopedic floor that I was once a patient on. I've come a long way, but there is still a ways to go...
