Being on-hold certainly isn't the worst option in the world, but it certainly sucks. I'm back to square one again - waiting for interview invitations and having nothing really to look forward to.
I also found out test results from the neurologist. A perfectly normal MRI, and the bubble test just shows a tiny hole in my heart - no big deal, anyway...
WAIT, WHAT?
Yup, a patent foramen ovale. The right to left shunt for in utero circulation failed to close after I was born. So now, seratonin precursors, which are not supposed to end up going to the brain can sneak through the hole and end up in the brain, causing migraines.
Not to mention the pain caused by the pinched nerve thanks to a really screwed up jaw. Yup, that too.
Oh, the surgery, you ask?
Well, I can breathe better but I certainly don't feel any better, because while the sinuses were a problem, they weren't THE problem, and weren't the cause of the pain.
At least I'm done with surgery now, the heart thing doesn't require any surgery and the plan is to find the right medications to manage the pain. Not that said search is going all that well.
I'm trying to get back in the swing of things - exercise, even though my energy level is nil and I'm feeling crappy, but hey, the endorphins could help, right?
I only wish SOMETHING were working right.
