There has been some development since I last posted, I had my second MRI with dye, and I have been referred to a neurosurgeon in Montreal and will have my initial consultation on Monday.

I have been having some additional symptoms as well, tingling of the scalp pretty much all the time now, occasional localized burning sensation of the scalp, intermittent internal vibrations and the palpitations every time I change position.

I have been using Doterra essential oils to help with my various symptoms, as I am not a big fan of pills and it does help tremendously. My sister is a Doterra rep, so I am a good candidate for testing her products too! I was told yesterday to not take any medication between now and then, so hoping it is a good sign that I may have surgery sooner rather then later. In the meantime, keeping the faith!

Well, things have developped quickly, I went to my neurosurgeon appointment in Montreal and got admitted the same day. He was planning on surgery that day but got hold up by heart specialist go ahead, but surgery happened the next day. Surgery was very successful and I got out of hospital yesterday. I am doing well and surgeon is pretty happy with the results, I have follow-up appointments and MRI in one month and two months post surgery. I feel so blessed to have an amazing surgeon that cared, it made a whole world of difference!
