Thinking about it makes me want to cry.

Brian's problems do appear to be worse than mine. I didn't see my scan but the ENT drew me a picture of what the pollups look like in my sinus and they pretty much fill the entire cavity. Apparently my sinus appears as completely white on the scan. What isn't pollup is mucus. I don't think they are very big but they are plentiful. The cavities that funnel air to the nerve receptors on the brain are completely blocked.
I'm tired of this "let's try this drug" approach that both doctors are taking. I want invasive action NOW! I have little faith in the predinsone approach -- hopefully it will work and make me look stupid.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Congratulations on getting an actual diagnosis, Megan! I hope that the prednisone works fast.

Thanks for all the fish.
If it's completely white, that means there is no air flow, or something. I'd say that your sinuses are as bad as Brian's. Uhhh, congratulations?
Any thoughts on a get together day? My free days are as listed several posts above.

How about Firday the 13th? It seems like a good time for Buffistas to meet.
As for gifts, what were you thinking? That we would pick names? Or just exchange pressies?

I'm going to have a shower now. And then go to bed. I'm off tomorrow, so I can so stay up this late.
Three pages of the damnable paper are actually written. Only 27 more to go! But that's between the two of us, and we have something like 17 pages of notes already. I've never wirtten a paper with another person before. It should be weird.
And to be superkeen, I already typed out my part of the damn bibliography. I think it took longer than the actual pages. I guess now i'm going to have to deal with the fact I've made up my own bibliographic rules.

Thanks for all the fish.
But that's between the two of us,
May I just say that I didn't understand why I had to keep this a secret. Go you with your paper and being able to read and understand things and all.
Friday the 13th? Okay... Good for me. Just wondering if we were exchanging, that's all.. Hey, we could donate to the Firefly fund or something as a group gift to each other.

Maybe we could pitch in a buy Ouise a house. Maybe we can find something nice on a hellmouth somewhere that we can afford.
