College and Chronic Pain

Ya I don't know about that title either. It sounds like it's going to be fun right *sarcasm*.

Anyways, I know what I want to achieve by the end of four or five years at college, and I know it isn't going to be easy.

That being said, I have a wonderful support system.

Anyways. Today I move into my dorm room! I don't know who my room mate is. My mum was in the ER last night, she's okay now, and so she won't be helping as much as she wants. Honestly, I don't want her to worry about me, somehow I will manage.

I entered the allergen filters in the menu for dinner tomorrow on campus. The two options I have are lemon wedges and tartar sauce. One problem with that is tartar sauce has dairy in it. The other is HOLY CRAP LEMON WEDGES. Really.

I talked to the nutritionist on campus and gave her my doctors letter confirming my allergens. She really didn't understand my condition and so I sent her another email today. Because guys, I don't think a girl can live off of Lemon wedges.

I'll keep you guys informed of my progress.

SURGERY NEWS:

All went well. It took about a full month for my eyes get rid of the blood. So I looked really scary. I even scared a child. Right now I am dealing with a lot of headaches and eye nausea. Eye nausea? That is right sometimes I just feel really sick in the eyes. I think the reattaching of muscles is going to take a while for my brain to get used to. So until then I have my faithful new bestie Tylenol. Which is really hard to find lately. There must have been a bad batch. MY old fav advil wasn't working, so I was told to switch and now I don't want to go back.

Have a lovely day and as always HAPPY READING!!
