    • Quick Weekly (monthly?) Update
      2

      We've been a bit busy here, though I've tried keeping up with the posts from everyone else.Kadie is still experiencing problems with her allergies (or whatever is causing the problem) and I think the nasal spray the doctor gave us is drying her nose out too much as she's had 3 nosebleeds this week. She has also continued to throw up during our commutes - w/ continued use of both medication and the motion sickness wrist bands. I'm hoping (only because other options are too scary to consider...

    • Motion Sickness and Cats

      We had Kadie's appointment at the allergist last week (which didn't go so well -"This won't hurt," my ass...) and came back with all negatives on the tests. So she's not officially allergic to anything but the doctor explained that the post-nasal drip and congestion could be caused by a sensitivity to something. Since the problems started 'round about the time we moved up to Hampstead, it's probably something that's found within the country (trees, flowers, weeds, etc.) that's not as prolific...

    • Praying for Allergies

      I have decided today to start a headache diary for Kadie. Unfortunately, she has complained of headaches far too many times now for me to discount them as aberrations. With the medical history of migraines on my family's side, I'm hoping that we do not discover these to be the case with Kadie, hence my blog's title. It may be something as little as she just didn't get enough sleep or played too long in the sun on the days that she's getting these, but we haven't really been keeping track of the...

    • Spring Check Up
      1

      I go in for my dentist appointment today to get my cavities filled. I'm stressing over this so much that not one, but five canker sores popped up in my mouth yesterday morning. I've never had a cavity filled, so I don't know what to expect and I don't think that's what's bothering me. It's because the first time I ever had to have Novocain was when I had my wisdom teeth pulled and the dentist that did that was so horribly awful that just the thought of another shot puts me on edge. I haven't...

      Has anyone checked Lisa recently? I'm beginning to wonder if she's been"altered" so as to keep up with her life. Just reading her posts makes me tired. btw...Lisa, if you're having troubles sleeping and it starts to become a regular thing, go to the doctor's quickly. Your sleeping habits are just that - habits. And if you get into the bad habit of not sleeping well, it becomes a perpetual nightmare. I suffered with insomnia for 6 or 7 years before I finally got help and it took a good year of...

    • It's Me - I'm Alive.

      I'm beginning to wish the phlegm would stay in my lungs. I've actually pulled the muscle that runs up the side of my neck and helps support my head, so that I now have to hold my head when I cough. Add covering my mouth and I'm all outta hands which doesn't make it easy to wash dishes, fold clothes or play house with a three-year-old. I'm doing better, but have a ways to go, I'm afraid. Does anyone remember Pop Rocks - that candy that crackles and fizzes in your mouth (the rumor was that if you...
