Kendra

Kendra went for her first Drs appointment yesterday, here in GA. We are doing something different here. Normally, we get seen at the hospital on the military bases. They have all different types of clinics right there in the hospital. Well they are over booked here and they make us go off base so I had to pick a DR for us to see. At first the kids were going to a male pediatrician and I was going to a male Dr.. Kendra really wanted a female DR.. I search and there was on female, but she too was booked. Well I found a Family Practice DR who was female and she had openings, so all 4 of us get to go to the same DR. We met her for the first time yesterday and Kendra and I REALLY liked her. She as nice, funny, totally concerned, caring, thourough.. It was a first time appointment and she took LOTS of notes. Kendra was laughing cause there were like 2 pages of hand written notes by the time we left..LOL.. Kendra has lots of issues..

Our main item was birth control.. (not for those reasons) she has been taking them for the last year for her periods which she has major problems with and cysts.. and since she has been taking pills she has had NO problems and she is so much happier..LOL.. well she ran out this summer while in CA and I didnt get her refill .. so she has had a terrible last few months. So we got new meds for that.

Plus she was sick with a cold.. which we found out is ALLERGIES.. who would have thought.. she has never had allergies.. Its always been Mycah and Jenna who have had no problems here.. so now kendra will be on a daily pill and a nasal spray..

Kendra also has a bunyon on her foot so we are going back to a podiatrist, she has minor scoliosis, which we will just monitor, she has DAILY headaches so she is being put on a daily med for headaches..

She had a concusion last last year and still has problems from that, so they are re doing a CT scan to check on everything.

She also had some torn ligaments or something in her wrist last year.. and still has alot of wrist pain so she needs to wear a wrist guard at least at night.

They are doing a full blood panel on her too.. to check for anemia or Hypoglacemia.. because if she doesnt eat.. first off she is a BIG BITCH, she gets headaches, and she is really dizzy like she stood up to fast.. as soon as she eats.. she is fine.. her mood is great and she feels good.. sometimes I have to force her to eat because she doesnt want to.. then after she eats she gets all giggley and says.. oh i guess it was that.. so we will see whats up with her blood levels.

Over all she is doing good. Making friends, missing her old ones ALOT. Dealing OK with the uniforms at school.. she wishes she had more clothes.. even withing the uniform rules.. she only has 4 shirts and 2 pair of pants she likes.. OH WELL..SUCK IT UP GIRLY!!..lol
