Stress

My jaw is so sore and achy today, but I going to the dentist soon and getting a night guard so that I won't have this problem for much longer. I have also decided to wait a few days to see if the night guard helps with my ear problem before I go see the ENT doc, I am not filling the prescription for the flonase, that stuff never works and I keep telling the doc that but he keeps pushing it on me. If the night guard does not seem to have any effect on my ear problem I will schedule an appointment with the ENT doc. Another issue I have been dealing with, yesterday I played rock band and right after I put the drums away I had a seizure, with leg spasms, lasted about 10-12 minuites and left me with a bad headache and a very weak leg for the rest of the day which totally sucked because I was in the middle of doing laundry. I have been trying to figure out why I had the seizure when I didn't play rock band that long, a couple weeks ago I played 84 songs throughout the course of the day without the smallest sign of a seizure. Well, here's my theory. I had an extra cup of coffee, more caffeine, that adds to it. I think my doc had me go off Lexapro too quickly, not really sure that would do it, but it might, and I wasn't actually playing rock band I was playing guitar hero world tour which has more flashy visuals so I think that combined with the added caffeine and the possible side effect of the lexapro withdraw (thats stretching it because the lexapro was actually upping my seizure threshold so being off it should make me less suceptible to having a seizure.) My head still really hurts, but not in a I have a headache kind of way, so unfortunately tylenol is not helping. I am really trying not to stress about it. The last time I had a seizure with a physical spasm was in february and I have since had a CT scan which showed no change in the tumors so I should be ok, it should just be from the caffeine and guitar hero. I just don't like having the spasms, I couldn't walk and my leg was shaking uncontrollably. Its very scary. I thought all that was behind me. At least I have acupuncture today.

I have to finish writing a PSA about meningiomas today. I am filming it either tomorrow or Thursday with my actress friend. I will post it here when it is finished. Wish me luck.
