She's tried chiropractor, acupuncture, biofeedback, botox injections (believe it or not, helped a lot for 3 years). She does go regularly to Massage Envy and makes sure she finds a really good one in whatever city she's in.
She's encouraged right now because her neurologists in Dallas and Houston have been talking, and they're forming a new headache clinic. It's invitation-only and they're inviting her. Very exciting, but hopefully insurable. These guys see the worst of the worst, and they say her case is one of the toughest they've ever seen.
I should definitely write down ideas to shake things up. Short-term, I have a goal of trying to see her every 2 weeks, and coming up with creative ways to do that.
Text from W yesterday while at work "can you call me when you get a chance?" I called her after work, but had to meet some friends for dinner. Called her back later, and we chit-chatted, I asked her if she had anything specific in mind with the text, and she said she didn't remember, waffled around a bit, then:
W: What are you doing for you birthday on Saturday? Me: No specific plans W: Want to come visit? Me: Sure! That would be a great birthday present W: Well, I don't have any big plans or anything Me: No, just seeing you would be a great present W: Don't get mushy Me: I'm just a mush-pot, can't help it W: Ha, well I'll let you know for sure tomorrow
Wow. I had thought about trying to visit this weekend, but didn't know if she would be comfortable yet. I also have some crazy plans I'm working on for a couple weeks out. Will post more later.
