My name is Melissa and I am a disabled, single mother of three beautiful children. They are 4, 8 & 14, my oldest is deaf and autistic so raising three children alone is hard but add a disability to the mix and sometimes it gets down right near impossible.
I'm not a common beggar but sometimes life gives you something more than just lemons...
A year ago I encountered the worse migraine I have ever felt, the pain was so overwhelming I ended up going to the emergency room for a shot and a new prescription of Imitrex. This migraine NEVER went away and I still have it to this day. These migraines are considered scatter migraines; they are all over. I have gone through all the hoops to figure out was is causing the pain. Dead end. I have had shots into the back of my head, MRI's, and MANY different medications. During this horrible time, I started to fall into a deep depression. I need to see a physiatrist who determined I had bipolar disorder currently depressed. I had a hard time waking up and cried daily. They ended up giving 3 types of medication to fight it. On top of that I started to feel a severe pain in my wrist, after an MRI they determined it was gout. I have not received any treatment for this so I am still experiencing pain in the wrist along with a new flare up in my foot. This causes me to walk with a limp or with crutches. They also found osteoarthritis in my hip and lower back. FANTASTIC! So... after a number of visits they now have me on the books for a shot into these areas. Ohhhhh... my left fingers went completely numb so I must wear a brace or have surgery. They determined that I have carpal tunnel. Double hit to my right wrist. I take 14 pills on a daily basis plus vitamins. All an all, I am a giant mess. It's still hard to wake up in the morning and get things together, but I do it because I have to.
