What's a Medical Unicorn? Sometimes we are driving down the road of life, other times we are chained to the bumper, traveling down the road of life. Here are some of the posts I've written on surviving the hard times to make it through to the good times. Enjoy! How to Fake Having a Real Life. You've been struggling for months-on-end, and finally it arrives!

Make This Look Awesome...: #HAWMC - Flickr inspired post - Perspective

http://makethislookawesome.blogspot.com/2012/04/hawmc-flickr-inspired-post.html

What's a Medical Unicorn? Thursday, April 5, 2012. HAWMC - Flickr inspired post - Perspective. For today's #HAWMC challenge, I am to take the first picture I see on flickr.com/explore. And use that to inspire a health-related blog post. Below is the Cuban Tree Frog, at first glance, a cute bugger(pun intended), but according to Wikipedia. Where is the good in this? And I force myself to see some way in which I could turn around my thinking- -see how this terrible situation could. I'm able to figure that ...

Make This Look Awesome...: Sleep Triggered by Migraine

http://makethislookawesome.blogspot.com/2015/05/sleep-triggered-by-migraine.html

What's a Medical Unicorn? Saturday, May 16, 2015. Sleep Triggered by Migraine. I'm turning to my audience on this one. I can't seem to find it in the medical literature, so I'm asking you: have you ever experiences a migraine causing you to sleep? No narcotics, no triptains (Imatrex and the like). It happened again yesterday, and it's driving me crazy. And I don't use any app that doesn't have an icloud or dropbox backup. It's maddening to Craft pitch deck or a presentation letter over days only to h...

Make This Look Awesome...: Problems of Success, Success of Problems

http://makethislookawesome.blogspot.com/2015/07/problems-of-success-success-of-problems.html

What's a Medical Unicorn? Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Problems of Success, Success of Problems. This is what we call a problem of success, and I'm going through one now. The success is that I'm in remission. The migraines have been fewer, and I'm much stronger on no prednisone. My body can react in the moment to stress, instead of getting a full dose of cortisol in the morning and a shot for When Things Really Get Bad. It's nice to have peace of mind knowing my body Will take care of itself. And I can rememb...

Make This Look Awesome...: Pain versus Life

http://makethislookawesome.blogspot.com/2015/05/pain-versus-life.html

What's a Medical Unicorn? Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Thank goodness the feature was more an art house film, but even then there were parts in the soundtrack where I wanted to strangle the director, "Are you trying. But thankfully those were few and far between. But it made me realize, it's not just me! And considering the roller coaster of pain we have ride "Forever," a nice, flat straightaway is a good change of pace. Hardly. Though I may not be able to soar on invisible forces like I did as a kid, I now...

What's a Medical Unicorn? 50 Ways to Make Money While Disabled. Too often with government disability benefits there are poverty traps. That is, in order to get the care we need to live, we must give up the income that allows us to survive.

Make This Look Awesome...: Migraine Arsenal

http://makethislookawesome.blogspot.com/2015/05/migraine-arsenal.html

What's a Medical Unicorn? Saturday, May 9, 2015. The first weapon in my arsenal is a steady schedule. I haven't used an alarm clock in years, because waking up suddenly makes me physically ill, so over the years I've learned when I need to sleep to wake up in time, and I keep to this schedule, unless the pain disrupts me (like last night). Red Bull and Water. Ice Packs, Medication and Distraction. Oxygen, Ice Packs, a Shower and Big Guns. Everyone's migraines are different, so not everything I do will wo...

What's a Medical Unicorn? What's a Medical Unicorn? After a day of frustration, I vented the following to my friends:. We tell doctors, when you hear hoof beats, think horses not zebras. But when it's not a horse, and it's not a zebra, have a little humility and faith of heart. You just may be hearing a unicorn. Monday, Dec 5, 2011. I met another unicorn! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
