Shots in the head, eyebrows & a giveaway
So.... It's been awhile since I blogged last... interesting how all of my posts start this way...
I've been to the dermatologist three times since I posted last. My eyebrows ended up falling out completely sometime around Halloween. So when I went in to the derm. got some meds and then went back in December. The raw spots on my head were not healed and of course there was no new growth so I had to undergo a round of steroid shots.
You may be thinking to yourself, oh that doesn't sound so bad. Well you try having a needle stuck INTO YOUR SCALP 20 TIMES and see how you like it! It was HORRIBLE! Worst pain I've felt in a long time. I left the dermatologists office that day crying and shaking.
Two weeks later I had a little big of hair growth on my legs! Two weeks after that my scalp started to look darker.... I thought Oh my gosh! it's coming back! No such luck. Tax season kicked in.
The growth I had fell back out. A week later, a new slick spot appeared on my head. This is getting ridiculous! Come or go. Leave or stay. Stop teasing me! This is maddening!
So January has come and gone. Last week my eyebrows started coming back. They are still here so I am cautiously optimistic. I went back to the derm. this morning. Same as last time. Shots, shots and more shots! But he is optimistic that we will get the psoriasis to go away and then my immune system will stop attacking my hair follicles. If that happens I MAY see some re-growth.
I know I should stay positive. I mean he was happy with my progress i should be too right? I've just been through so much with this and I'm devestated all over again every time it starts to come in and falls back out.
I've learned to deal with the stares. They don't much bother me any more. I can handle the snide comments and extra breathing room most people give me. In fact one of my new favorite things to do is walk into a crowded area and take my hat off. LOL I've never gotten in and out of a store so fast! AND I've only had to shave my legs once since September. so that's always good.
ON A MORE POSITIVE NOTE I'm having a giveaway here on my blog and on facebook www.facebook.com/delenaciastkodesigns .
Some lucky person is going to win 12 free pieces of customized jewelry from me! See the previous blog post to see how to enter!
