MyoBloc - Here I Come!
Cold, dark, windy and rainy here in the Big Apple today. I just came home from working a 15 hour shift in the Open Heart Unit. And I’m tired. The last week has gone well from a DBS perspective- at least I thought so until today. My headaches have returned. I want the entire system to be turned off. And want to return to MyoBloc injections. I held off last week as it seemed that my settings were holding. So I thought…I may not be able to return to my life as an ICU nurse now. I never thought I would have to make such a choice ever in my life. ICU Nursing is my livelihood. I love the noise, intensity, problem-solving, equipment etc. of critical care nursing. Now- a dreadful choice awaits me as the rain begins to pour outside. Time to make that call to my old neurologist for MyoBloc- my magic potion that worked within an hour after being injected with the toxin. Relief will come as will choices… May be the French pop singer, Natasha St. Pier, will help relax me before another shift starts ?..De l’amour le mieux…??? I don’t want to think about choices…but am ready for some Myobloc - same dose as before…10,000 units…
