Quick Update

I started back to work this week and let me tell you, it has been a roller coaster ride. One minute I feel great, then the next minute I am totally exhausted. It is also frustrating to try and do something that I have done a million times but now I have to really focus. For example, I was editing a picture in Photo Shop and I really had to concentrate to remember how to accomplish various edits. I also have an issue with multi-tasking. I seem to forget what I was doing. This really sucks! I am used to being able to get things done quickly and correctly - but now that capability seems to have left me for now. I don't know if it will come back- it better!!!

Well, I better get back to work before I tire myself out again. It has now been three weeks since my stroke. It seems like a blur and sometimes I cannot believe or remember that it happened, but then I get a cruel reminder when I can't remember how to do something.....

Confusion and Frustration

I haven't posted in several days because I really didn't feel like it. I have been experiencing a lot of frustration lately. When I get tired I get confused really easily. When I try to type something, I get really frustrated that I make mistakes or that I can't seem to come up with the words I want to say. this is driving me crazy. Physically I feel great - mentally I am not doing so well. I was supposed to go back to work, but my company needed more detailed information from my Doctor as to what I could and couldn't do when I get back to work. Getting information from the Doctor is very difficult. I don't have any clue when I will be back at work. right now I am just tired of being at home and not being productive. Hopefully things will change soon.

This is how I feel right now. arrrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

bye for now.....
