Feb. 18th, 2008 08:05 pmNo visual problems since Thursday and my neck/shoulder is doing much better. I think the Splenda may have been triggering the "optical migraines," if they were actually migraines. I seem to have some vague recollection of cutting the Diet Coke with Splenda out of my diet last winter because I thought it might be aggravating the muscle spasms -- I think I was actually onto something.
Vandal is doing okay though it's clear his feet bother him. He's preferring to be carried around, particularly up and down the stairs -- which is something he WOULD NEVER allow before this. Even when he had major abdominal surgery in fall 2006. This has definitely gotten him down. He's also taking the pain meds orally, which again he wouldn't do after the abdominal surgery (he fought so hard that I was afraid he'd tear out the stitches -- I decided that if he was going to fight that hard, he really didn't need the drugs). Poor guy.
