No answers in sight...

Lara has a three day weekend so no school problems yet this week. She is being so bad with the bathroom. She pooped in her pants this morning and just didn’t care. Anthony cared more than she did. Anthony is not doing well with the toilet also so I am thinking it is something I am not doing right. I must suck at toilet training. At this point I wish there was a school we could send them to. Maybe a toilet boot camp?

Greg has lightened up a bit with me as he can see how sick I feel now. He does want me to handle the pre school registration so I have to look that up later on today.

I gave my Pulmonologist a call to see what the results were of the CT. I thought was going to finally addressing my pain with a CT scan of my torso. All I got though was that my lymph nodes showed “slight improvement” what every that means. So he is not addressing me pain in my mid drift. I also got no report on my lungs even though I am coughing all the time and feel pressure there. Also as a singer I can tell when my volume of air is down so I know something is wrong with my lungs. I called the doctor twice last week and he never called back. His nurse called once with the great news of my lymph node. I told her my problem was in my lung and mid drift but she refused to listen saying the lymph node was the same thing. I mean are we all so dumb we thing the lung and lymph node is the same thing because they are both in the chest cavity? Can’t some of us feel the difference between the two? At this point I am just so frustrated and just don’t know what to do. I am tired all the time and to do anything is an effort that is worthy of a 90 year old, not a 45 year old adult. I just want to be in bed and asleep all day long. This past weekend it was OK. We did manage to go out to breakfast on Saturday morning with Greg’s sister and dad. I was feeling really bad but tried to keep a stiff upper lip so to say. Later on we went to a SIL’s birthday party as she turns 50 this Tuesday. It was at their house so it was manageable. They have a beautiful place that they just bought on a lake. Their neighbors came by snowmobiles that they drove on the lake! They place is just gorgeous and I told them I am running away to their place this summer to get away from Greg and the children. I looked for a Sarcoidosis site and found a place I can ask questions. I posted about my pain there and I am happy I found that site. I feel less of a whining, hypersensitive freak. Heck at this point I am getting more medical help from “House” than any doctor around here.
