Woohoo two month mark today!!! I’ve officially made it to the two month mark without driving myself insane with cabin fever, ignoring all the doctors rules, or snapped at any (Okok all) of their employees.

I had been going to the same doctors for so long that I had forgotten how difficult it was to be a patient. Much less a new patient! Patients need more help out there! Advocates! Real help! Someone to really be on their side and look out for them. Ask questions! Really get answers and research! Push until they get the right things done for them!

Lately I’m pretty sure I’ve broken a few rules of my recovery “stay calm” & “relax” because some of these doctors just drive me totally insane!! And their offices and employees aren’t very far behind. Maybe that’s why I ended up with so many 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc opinions when this whole process started years and years ago.

At this point unfortunately it feels like I’m on the dueling dragon roller coaster just got off one color getting onto the next. Just when we make one life changing decision and get that out of the way now it seems there will be a whole new series of doctors and decisions.

It will be a bumpy ride but we will definitely take the same route as the first ride… keep looking for all opinions until we are happy and comfortable with what we’ve found. I was lucky to find a great medical team the first time around and am sure I will find a great one the next time around, especially since the first are sticking around.

At the end of the day… Two months… Wow! 🙂
