Today has been a day of quite good news. I'm even going to make a stab at catching up on some LJ (although I'm a week-ish behind on it, so there'll probably be stuff I'll miss).
I had an appointment with an endocrinologist regarding this hypoglycaemia crap - unsurprisingly, that resulted in: "Hmm. Get these three zillion tests done, then we'll talk again." The good news actually came in before that.
By a combination of some outstandingly good luck in timing and the persuasive efforts of my psychologist, my psychiatrist appointment for addressing issues of ADD has been moved from mid-May to...
*drumroll*
Wednesday.
Wednesday, people. That's TWO AND A HALF MONTHS of coping without even getting near a psychiatrist I don't have to deal with.
*returns from getting distracted by tabbing out to read a webcomic*
Ahem. Time was, I would have mentioned something like that with the rider, "I don't have ADD, I swear." As it turns out, I would be lying, but it makes things make so much more sense.
*gets distracted again*
ANYWAY LJ ENTRY.
Uni starts Monday. Found out today that there are "some perplexities" about how my 12-point unit can be run; the project may be offered in second semester, which would be rather annoying. The software involved is Adobe Flash, which, I could do worse than learning to use Flash, I guess.
Other stuff that has happened today is neither particularly interesting to most people who'd read this and not something to discuss in a public post, so! I might end it here. Especially since I'm having trouble staying in this window for more than one sentence at a time. (My focus issues are worse when I'm tired/have had a busy day, and having spent part of it actively doing stuff related to my focus issues I'm really freaking aware of them.)Current Music: Chas and Dave playing Left For Dead Current Location: Destiny; kitchen table

not particularly relevant any more, but I was talking to someone at work about lengthy wait times for specialist appts and mentioned that someone I knew had to wait till May to get prescribed drugs for ADD and she suggested the behaviour clinic or whatever it's called at UWA who apparantly have a huge budget for research on add/adhd and will be able to prescribe stuff
That's still interesting and helpful, thanks. And I may yet contact them, in case having more case subjects for adult ADD helps in some fashion. (Not a charitable For Sciene! impulse, really - the idea of offering to help out research for a condition I have isn't exactly altruistic.)
