Another Migraine update

Well, we're 1 and 1/2 months out from the Botox injections. We still don't have to go to the Pain Clinic 2 times every week! I think that she has seen results from the injections overall. She still has a daily headache, but most of the time they are not as intense. She has been able to spend more time out of bed and do more. Sometimes she does too much and then ends up paying for it later. This has been wonderful compared to what she's been dealing with, and I hope that she can at least maintain this level of relief, if not get even better. With physical therapy, pain clinic, psychiatrist, and neurologist visits, she keeps a busy schedule. We are also goiong to counselling to deal with all of it. Our oldest son also sees a counsellor for his mood disorder and sees a psychiatrist for his ADHD.

When I think of all the trips we make to the doctor and counsellors, I am very thankful that we have insurance. I just wish it covered all of the expenses. We still have our co-pays plus 10 - 20% of the bill, and persriptions to pay for. It adds up fast, and can get very discouraging. Don't get me wrong, I am happy to make payments for my families health and happiness. It's just a lot of money that we don't have. I plan to update the blog again soon, I am going to put a school paper I wrote in English 1010 that gives my opinion on miracles still happening today, I just have to get it from my home computer. Stay tuned...
