The Best Doctors Appointment Ever........

Debbie and I just got back from a doctor visit with some great information. Yesterday we were still scrambling to see some kind of specialist until my assistant came to work. Judy suggested I call this doctor in Layton that she took her grand daughter to. I call and they just had a cancellation minutes before I called for the following day at 1. I was excited that someone was actually going to see us.


Today we went, they xrayed and the doc came in and talked to us about what had happened. Debbie told the whole story of what hit, what hurt then and what hurts now and when it hurts. He shook his head as she was talking then said with a smile "this all makes sense and is all connected... let me explain why". He went into great detail but I will hit on the main subjects......

• She has a small crack in her eye socket just below her left eye (which usually happens in impacts like this) and that is why she has pain in her eye and double vision in her left eye.


• Then she has inflamation in her left TMJ in a spot where it will lock open if opened all the way and will also cause pain when chewing and thats exactly what was happening. She is not supposed to put pressure on her jaw at all and put her on a soft food diet for 2 weeks.


• She has an infection in her left sinus under her left eye.... yes the one with the crack in it... so this puts pressure on her entire left side of her head creating more problems with her eye, jaw and ear.


• Dizziness.... because of the infection in her sinus and jaw it spreads to her ear and creates a balance issue when she moves her head.


• Headaches and Neckaches.... needless to say... all of these other issues creates stress on the muscles all around the head and neck.

So the doctor puts her on several medications as you can imagine. One for pain, one for inflamation and one for infection. I think we are now finally on the right path and correct understanding for what the hell is going on with my wife. Thank God for sure! What great timing to find the right doctor at the right time.

So we picked up prescriptions and came home. I took a picture of the diet that Debbie has been on the past few days.

Even though Debbie is having a bad day we are so very excited that we have a path to follow and an understanding of what she is experiencing.
