It's been a while..

I haven't posted in a while, life has been, well, crazy. Here's a little update on life!

After my birthday, the week after I think, I went to Disneyland for Christmas. So it was Christmas week...welp:) That was the most amazing and depressing thing that I have have ever experienced in my entire life. The Christmas lights were remarkable, and I fell in love. I'm definitely a fan of Christmas lights if I haven't mentioned befofe:) 
I can't even begin to explain how gorgeous it was. Definitely should be on your bucket list:)

So besides the gorgeousness, I was sick as hell the entire time.. Probably can't tell eh? Every ride made me vomit, I couldn't keep food down, I was losing chunks of skin if I brushed into anything on my bare skin, urinating blood, etc. The second day, I rang the doctor, they assumed it was one of the medicines I'm on for my CM1 (Chiari Malformation 1) and he said don't worry about it. I took myself off a pill, and symptoms almost went  completely away. Badumding. Doctor-0, Sam-1.

So I come back to Phoenix, go into the doctor the second week of school I think, and the doctor applauds my decision (definitinely NOT what I was expecting!) But now he puts me on ANOTHER migraine medicine, well more so blood pressure because it typically helps with migraines, lowers my dosages on the other permanently, and here we are- no change. By March, if no change, then I begin Botox shots to try to relieve some swelling. Fun! 

I'm gonna leave this post at this. Stay tuned and strong.
Xoxoxo.
