Visiting My Two Psych People…

Darren Long1 Comment

Well, let’s do another Wednesday. Noon-time and I meet with the Psychiatrist lady that I’ve been seeing every one of these new Wednesdays (except last week). I sat and met with her. Talked with her. Had very good conversation. Ya-da ya-da… That was good in all places.

ok….

In the afternoon, I head over to the University Hospital (where the surgery was done) and saw the Psychologist guy. Hadn’t seen him for a few months. He and some others were quite impressed with me on how my current standings are doing.

How am I feeling? Great. The current changes I have felt lately (and the Psychologist had to agree), I am really feeling more wonderfully better than I have than awhile ago. Is it because Spring is getting closer? Maybe.

Could be good food…. maybe just discussions of such crazy things… This “might” be true, too. We’ll all have to wait and see.

I can just honestly say that I am feeling GREAT!!   🙂

New Doctor

I had a meeting at the Hospital to discuss the decision of making sure ALL my doctors (even the Psychologists) be located at the University where I had my operation. This makes everything MUCH easier for all the doctors that work on me and work with me to communicate with each other after the surgery.

It’s always quite interesting when I visit the University Hospital. The doctors are always seem very happy to see and get to know me very well. Met with a new Psychology doctor there on Wednesday and have come to decide that this is the better doctor (unlike a previous Psych not at the Hospital). It’s always a good thing to have a Psych who can actually understand what you’re talking about and care about it.

I have a Neurologist appointment on the 30th, too.

Just got home after my appointment from KU Med. My head was cut-up after the incision/surgery on the left side and it looked good. Wanted to check up on that. Came out good and the doc said I could go ahead and shave my face near my ear which would show off some stuff on the left side. Have to wait and see…

The doctor said:

  • The incision in my head looked great.
  • I defiantly need “cognitive therapy”.
  • Strength is good.
  • Need to strengthen my neck because my head leans to the right.

That was about it after the doctor said that I needed to see him in 3 months.

He also talked and said the scars on the top of my head from November will probably stop the hair from growing. So, that means I have these scar lines in my head that were used to show where my head was cut at, I will not have hair growing there. Hmmmm… What do I do now? Maybe wear a hat all the time? Just shave my ugly-striped top of my head all the time? I just have to think and see…
