Streamlining...or something like that

Just quickly, I know I said I would come back and update about my stupid brain issues and post block photos but instead I have attempted to streamline my blog by splitting it into 3 blogs...only time will tell if it will work! LOL
So, my home building blog can be found here: http://melisbuilding.blogspot.com/
And my Daily Grateful (I have explained all about it on there) blog can be found here: http://melisgrateful.blogspot.com/

I have added them to my sidebar link spot thingo so they will be a little easier to find but I figured this way each blog has a specific purpose and as long as I don't post the wrong thing in the wrong blog we should be fine! LOL

In me news, I have had a long few weeks! Went to see the Neuro about the brain issues and he said he thinks it is muscular and go home and suck it up basically. I was given Panadine Forte and an anti inflammatory at the hospital and he told me to stop them, despite the fact that they actually make a little difference to my pain, and just take normal Panadol (Which doesn't even touch the sides of the pain!)
So, we weren't too impressed with the way he dismissed it all so went to see my GP who said it could be a compressed nerve so sent me for a CT. When that came back clear she said it could be migraines (Which I have had in the past and know that's not what it is) so I am off caffeine and chocolate for 2 weeks. Not surprisingly, with 1 week down and 1 to go, the pain is no better and some days is actually worse so looks like it is not migraines!
My theory is, I will let her do what she wants and eliminate all she can then ask for a referral to another Neuro because I am sure the problem is Chiari so if everything else is eliminated the it will make it clearer for all the professionals!
Have to run now, Kenz is hungry but will try and come back later to do more of an update and add those videos I spoke of :)
Till next time,
Mel
