Re: Re: Suggestions -- Washing Hair

[Guest guest]

Sharon and Alice,

Thank you both for your replies! I was able to shower, wash and comb my hair

without any problem. (What concerned me most was how I would keep the

incision area clean and dry.) In fact, it was much easier than I thought!

Last night I tried sleeping in my own bed by propping my head up on a couple

of pillows. It worked great and I awoke feeling more rested than I have in

days.

I just returned from a short walk to the drugstore. Aside from how good it

felt to finally take a shower and wash my hair, it was also nice being able

to get some exercise. The weather outside was crisp but not too cold -- just

perfect for a short walk.

Now it's time to warm up with a cup of delicious hot Almond Truffle mocha.

, care to join me?

I'm ready for a mocha. Even tho the tinnitus is acting up (caffeine) I

can handle a small nuiscance just to sit with you and enjoy mochas. Too bad

they dont give free refills.

Did you charter a Lear jet for me? Be right there! LOL

Funny you should mention that. The tinnitus in my head has been driving me

crazy today, so I think we'd make perfect company for each other. LOL! I'm

hearing a continuous high pitched sound that just won't stop. The tinnitus

has been intermittent for the past few days but constant since this morning.

Maybe we can compare notes as to what we both are " hearing " over a mocha?

<grin> At this rate, I don't think caffeine could make this any worse.

, who hopes things quiet down soon

A woman after my own heart! LOL Not only that, she actually listened

to me today and began her next countdown. LOL

You dont think caffeine is to blame? Your meds? Lets hope it is

temporary, I am not sure what to do with a crazy woman.

(thinks will be fine with some proper TLC...and perhaps a strait

jacket?)

No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
