Health update
Mar. 16th, 2009 09:01 pmHad my nose scoped so they could look at my voicebox today and we got a diagnosis, Laryngopharyngeal reflux disease and Vocal cord dysfunction. A change of diet, cutting back on coffee and booze, and some heavy duty Nexium and I should be breathing easy in a few weeks. Gonna be a few months till my throat and voice box are fully healed-lots of swelling and irritation in my throat, but finally, after ten months, I can look forward to getting on with my life.
I think we would have picked this up earlier, except I only had rare bouts of heartburn, and it was less than severe. My breathing has been worse this week because my reflux is worse. The cause? Thin fucking mints! I will have to give up all minty goodness, but the only thing I really like are Thin Mints.
Bachelor weekend coming up. Mrs. CB is heading to NOLA for a Nerd Teacher Conference. I have $20 in singles, so you know where I'll be ;)
More later this week- I need to post about the return of Mrs CB 2 to the screen.
