Vertigo

Well it has been another interesting day.  The day started off with a scare for me.  I was taking Mason into pre-school when I got really dizzy again.  It was awful.  After talking to my wife I called my doctor and made an appointment with him for this afternoon.  Of course us musical people have vivid imaginations.  My mind was running wild all day.  Well, I just got back from the doctors office and my doctor believes it is Benign Positional Vertigo.  He is having me get an MRI done on Tuesday morning to rule out anything more serious.  He did prescribe something for the dizziness.  So hopefully that will help.  I also had some blood taken which gave Ben and Ryan some fun back at the office. I let Ben pull the band-aide off.  Who knew so much hair could stick to something so small and could hurt so much.

Well, just thought I would give you all an update.  I get the blood results back in the morning.  Will let you all know if anything comes of it.  I’m a little tired of the drama and am ready for life to be back to normal. 

Doogy Howser

Well, I finally gave in to peer pressure and went to see our family doctor today.  It was kind of funny in a way.  When the doctor finally came into my room he had a young guy with him.  My doctor introduced him as a medical student.  He then asked if I cared if he did the exam on his own.  I told him that would be fine.  So out the door goes my doctor and the student doctor begins to go through a million questions.  It must have said on the chart why I was there.  It has to doesn’t it?  Well, like a bad episode of house this guy drills me for several minutes, most of them not having a single thing to do with my symptoms.  His first question was “Do you snore?”  To which I answered “I’ve been told I do”.  That opened pandoras box about all the risks of being over weight.  In my head I’m thinking ,”Dude, just give me some medicine so I can get over this.”    After a while my doctor came back in and he got me the goods and wrote a prescription for me.  It was definitely the weirdest trip to the doctor I think I have ever had.

Well, this body needs some sleep.  See you all Sunday!

Sick

It’s funny how things happen.  Just the other day I was thinking to myself that I couldn’t believe that I haven’t been sick over the winter.  Then it hit all at once.  I started not feeling well on Monday.  Tuesday I was in the office physically but just felt zapped of all good health.  Today, I stayed home.  A sick day.  I have progressively felt worse through out the day.  I went back to bed around 6:30p.m. only to awake around 9p.m. hearing that the Phillies were getting beat up by the stinkin’ mets. Oh how I hate the mets.  I think it’s okay to say the word “hate” as long as it’s in the light of sporting events.  Now I am wide awake and it’s just after 11p.m.  I am hoping to get some good rest tonight and be back in the office tomorrow.  My voice is pretty much gone right now so I am not certain about this next Sunday.   I may be in the background playing guitar or something.  The Lord has blessed me with people that can step up to the plate when I am sick or gone.  It’s just more evidence of God growing our church and our teams.  Well, I think I am going to try to get some sleep.  Just wanted to get on here since I hadn’t blogged for a couple days.  Just been sick.
