Mayo

Good news! I am going to go to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester on October 29th. Hopefully some answers will be found. I am willing to try almost anything to get rid of the pain. My mom wanted us to stay at the Ronald McDonald House the night before I see the doctors because my appointment is so early but I am too old so we will either be getting up at the crack of dawn or getting a hotel room.

My pain has been pretty bad lately and I have thought multiple times about taking Vicodin to try to make the pain lessen. Normally it doesn't work and since I am allergic to it, I get extremely sick from taking it. Each time I take it I seem to get more and more sick. I think pretty so I won't be able to take it because the reaction is so bad. I am trying to refrain from it by reminding myself that it really doesn't get rid of my pain anyway but pain is a big motivator to try something again and again even if it didn't work the first time.

I am also having alot of pain in my hands and wrists. It makes it pretty hard to take notes and write papers. I'm hoping that goes away soon and I can concentrate more on my studies.
