There I was in Orange County California picking out these Christian Dior frames for my latest eye prescription since I just consulted with my ophthalmologist about my eye condition (since I had an injury over a year ago). Little did I know I’d end up in emergency room the next evening because my blood pressure was way off my usual charts! I don’t remember if I was terribly fatigued before the incident or if I’ve just now succumbed to my lack of stamina lately.

Through a battery of tests (CT-scan, about 10 blood tests), we are beginning to think my post polio syndrome (PPS) condition has simply progressed. Which means I need to change my lifestyle. My primary doctor is seeking a PPS doctor locally but they can’t seem to find one. In the meantime, my dear husband is relying on Internet for research. He has acquired a lot of minerals capsules that his research has lead him to believe I need. I feel like all I’m eating are capsules and tablets ALL DAY long. But I must admit, I’m feeling a little more like myself this week than I did last week. I’m thinking keep a blog of both my art and my adventure through this physical condition which seems to have a terrible sense of humor.
