Now that I have my vertigo under control, I have another health issue to deal with. I had a CT scan a week or so ago and the scan revealed a mass attached to the outside of my uterus. No indication that it is malignant but I need a hysterectomy.
The surgery can be done vaginally but I will not be able to drive for at least two weeks. I am hoping Kipsy can come up and stay with me after school lets out in June. The doctor does surgeries on Wednesdays and ideally I can get an early June date so I will be ready to go to London on the 10th of July. If any of you other than Kipsy could come that would be great and I would pay the airfare - especially if Kipsy can't come in early June.
I will be in the hospital only 2 days and probably only need someone here for a week - I can get rides for the second week as I had to do when I was having vertigo attacks.
If anyone has a week in May that would be good too - give me more time to recover. Let me know so I can make further plans.
Meanwhile, I am getting ready for a visit from Aunt Twiggy and Uncle Farooz. Farooz has never seen the condo so I am running around making sure it looks good. I am having a party for them Sunday night. They leave here to visit Roothy I think.
I got a large tax refund - but as Alan pointed out, that is because I didn't make much money last year. Twiggy and Farooz got the first refund in over 30 years.
I have found a new plus in not buying anything new this year - I can throw away the catalogs I get in the mail without even looking at them!

Once roothy, kipsy and chip let you know what days they can fly out let me know via email and I'll do what I can.
ReplyDeleteFYI, this is kinda personal medical info to be posting on a public blog.
Do you REALLY think anyone but us is reading our stuff? Roothy has it covered (with maybe some help from Kipsy) but I would like a visit anytime.
ReplyDeleteI (and Kipsy on-and-off) will be there from May 26th until the very end of June, EXCEPT that Kipsy and I will both be gone from June 11 to June 23rd. Momcat assures me that is plenty of time to recover; however, if you want to come out, that would be the time to do so.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I got a federal refund this year, too, for the first time in memory. I always feel like I've done something badly wrong when I get a refund; I don't like the REAL Uncle Sam having my money in an interest free loan. In 2008, though, I had some losses when I moved what was left of my stock market holdings into cash in September. The tax code allows you to deduct a certain amount of investment losses against income, so voila, a refund check. I imagine this is what happened to Aunt Twiggy and Uncle Farooz, too.
