Occipital Neuralgia, Halloween & Dr. Oz...

The neurologist worked me in this past Saturday and said I had Occipital Neuralgia. Spasming muscles in my necks were pinching my occipital nerve which was causing one killer headache. He gave me several injections of prednisone directly in my neck and head to relax that muscle. By the end of the day, I was feeling much better. Amazing, huh?

I took my little witch and my little pirate to the hayride in Shallowbrook tonight. They were so exhausted! Lily asked when it was "not gonna be Halloween anymore". She said she was getting "too tired to Halloween". They are both growing up so fast. I can remember having to help them both up and down off the hay trailer and this year they both jumped off and ran up to the houses on their own.

Just finished watching Heroes, which used to be such a great show. Now, I have to admit, I am getting really tired of it. It is getting sillier and sillier and nothing ever happens. Although Peter Petrelli still looks great, so I guess I'll continue watching! :)

My Dr. Oz books came in the mail at the end of last week sometime. Get this...this could only happen to me... the mailman brought the books along with my other mail up to the house and left them on the porch since it had been raining. The dogs decided my books should be their snack and they drug them into the yard and chewed them to pieces. My books were still readable, but we had to let them dry out and I have to try to ignore the mangled edges as I read. I was so pissed.

Speaking of mail, I got the bill the other day for my ER visit... $1333!!! Can you believe that?? And I am not sure that that includes the CAT scan because I think I will get a seperate bill from radiology. Not sure.
