OK. Let's get back on track, now.

You know, it's a good thing I have a pretty bad short term memory loss, or I might be really upset.

I tried to get back into writing every two weeks and failed, but I fully intend to do so now. So, let's keep our fingers crossed for consistency!

To sum up the time since: New Primary Care Provider: Acquired! Low magnesium: Still low, but not as bad. Anemia: still a thing. Calcium levels: still high. Weirdly. Brain damage: also still a thing. So at least that one's consistent.

Now, I have to think of what to write.

I suppose I could just continue in an update manner, so I will.

Still waiting on the appointment with the nephrologist. They have all my tests, and were trying to find a place to work me into the schedule. Still hoping that will answer some questions. I don't mind having to take a couple of supplements for the rest of my life, if I need to, I just want to know if that's what I need to do. Also, should I add calcium, or no? Now that I have far less estrogen pumping through my veins, I hear calcium can be an issue. I would rather not add broken bones to my laundry list of maladies, you know? At this point, I'm still 5'11 3/4", so I think I'm good, but I'd like to stay that height, too. Having pants that fit is pretty key for me.

After seeing my new NP the other day, I'm also going to have another neuropsych eval done at some point. In order to get my ADHD (or whatever it may be) treated, I need an actual diagnosis. My last neuropsych eval was pretty focused on my then recent brain injury, and didn't really focus on other issues. Even if adults don't have ADHD, as my psychiatrist has said (and I do not believe), ADHD-like symptoms from a brain injury still need to be addressed. I can't seem to motivate enough to get my house cleaned, and that's a bad thing. I have stuff I need to do. 

As a major bright side to all of this, my husband and I have decided on a vacation spot for our belated 25th anniversary. We've decided to stay in a mountainous area! I'm looking forward to that, pretty sure it's going to be awesome.

Let's see. Aside from all of everything, life is life. I'm still glad to be in it, and still love the people in it with me.

Sometimes, I'm just grateful for those simple facts. Sometimes, that's all you need.
