Day 23

Better day today. A little more movement and the headache isn’t as bad.
Day 22
Posted by Tony on Dec 1, 2009 in Uncategorized
Happy December.
I’ve tried to avoid taking pain pills for the headache. Yes it hurts, but I’m just odd. I like to try to get by on what I can. Today I gave in and took a pain killer at work. It didn’t get rid of the headache but dulled it enough for me to get through the issues at hand.
Day 21

Sometimes I think this damn headache is never going to go away.
Day 20
Posted by Tony on Nov 29, 2009 in Uncategorized
No new or improved movement. Still have a painful headache.
Tomorrow I return to work. In a way I’m glad because I’ve felt pretty useless just “resting.” In a way I’m not glad because I worry stress may make things worse. Only time will tell.
Day 19
Posted by Tony on Nov 28, 2009 in Uncategorized
I have more movement on the left side of the face. Not much, but I’ll take what I can get. I keep worrying that I won’t regain any more movement. Yeah, I’m a worrier.
I’m sick of the pain. Really sick of it. The damn headache won’t go away and the pain in the neck/shoulder has flared up.
Want a lesson in Customer Service? Look up what people have to say about Elliot J. Bresler. I’m very impressed.
Day 18
Posted by Tony on Nov 27, 2009 in Uncategorized
Had a headache, pain behind ear/jaw and bout of depression today. Can’t seem to shake any of them.
My wife and I recorded the Iron Bowl and watched it tonight because she had to work today. Roll Tide!
We also watched the 2009 World Magic Awards. I wish they had a Mentalist and a Bizarre Magician category.

Day 17
Posted by Tony on Nov 26, 2009 in Uncategorized
Still experiencing pain behind the ear and jaw. Not as much pain to the touch on the face. I think I have a little more movement on the left side of the face but I’m not sure. Could just be my imagination.
Day 16

No improvement today.
My neck/shoulder isn’t hurting much today but there is a fair amount of pain behind the ear/jaw.
Day 15
Posted by Tony on Nov 24, 2009 in Uncategorized
When I went to the neurologist yesterday the pain was in overload mode. My neck and shoulder were killing me. The nuerologist gave me some pain killers to use in moderation.
At this point there is no more medication the doctor can give for the condition. We have reached the “Wait and see” stage of the recovery.
I have definatley regained a little movement on the left side of the mouth. I was afraid it was just a fluke on day 12 so I haven’t said much about it.
The neurologist wasn’t happy that I haven’t taken any time off to rest. He said a day here or there isn’t going to get it and ordered me to take this whole week off. That leaves work a couple of people short (another guy had taken the week off for vacation) but work will just have to deal with it.
This morning I slept in. Right now I feel better, more rested, than I have since this started.
