Good News

I finally heard from the Neurologist regarding my MRI MRA results from my migraine episode last week.  My doc came back from maternity leave and delivered the news to me on the phone herself which was so much better than hearing from the dreaded doctor who was covering for her.

My brain is healing!  Gosh...that sounds so weird, doesn't it? But it's healing!  Dr. Cardiel said that she was "very pleased" with the way things were going and thinks...get this...that if my Hematologist agrees, I can be off Warfarin in two weeks!  I wanted to almost cry when she told me this.  We still don't know what caused the migraines but the important thing is...my brain is healing, and my doctor is "very pleased".

To think that in two weeks, I can have sushi or green tea or cauliflower...wow and yay.  It seems like such a small thing to want to have but it pretty much feels like I'm about to have a feast at a five star restaurant.

Small victories :)
