All About You Hair

Hi all, last chance if you want any products? 😀

Hi I hope everyone had a great Easter 😁
I'm going to do a Stock Order if anyone wants any?

Hi again last chance to put an order in for hair products 😁

Hello 😄 I hope you are all well.
I'm doing a stock order if anyone wants Shampoo, conditioner or styling products?
Please let me know ASAP, will get it before the end of next week.

Hello 😁 sorry for leaving you hanging. I got home Saturday afternoon, glad to be back with with beautiful family 🥰. Well I must say it was definitely a wild ride. Not the fluffy pain free pillows of clouds I was hoping for. I remember thinking "why would people torture themselves for 7 days doing this???"
I was highly Anxious, mostly wanting and needing this to work and help ease my pain. Even for a short period of time 🙏
It didn't get off to a great start, the first nurse I had did not give me the care and compassion I needed. They start on low doses of ketamine, which was meant to be increased half hourly depending on how I was feeling. I was not checked on for 1 1/2 hrs, I was getting very agitated as you can imagine being such a "time" person. Any way after that I was looked after very well. I had 2 amazing nurses help me get through this very unpleasant ordeal. I was extremely emotional, every emotion I had held inside came out and more. I remember asking hysterically "How Did I Get Here?" I had a life I had drive, energy, I had goals and dreams. I created my own business, I loved my work, my clients, who were my friends as well, amazing friends and very social. I married my gorgeous husband, had 2 adorable kids 🥰 Then slowly over the past few years I've lost so much, Pain and lack of Dr's looking into why I have so much of it has taken it away. I have Ankylosing spondylitis an auto immune disease which attacks the joints along my spine and sacroiliac joints. This was undiagnosed for nearly 10 yrs, Dr's putting my constant pain down to my job. Eventually creating a whole lot of other problems. Including 6 bulged disc's, disc displacement and arthritis in my jaw, Trigeminal neuralgia and the hard to treat Central sensitisation syndrome. So much medication to try and give me some relief that I'm left knumbed down and fatigued. My husband and kids miss out on the person I once was. The unfairness was too much to bare. On top of all this the emotional toll of watching my mums health deteriorate slowly but surely. Being diagnosed with the most horrific disease possible MND. It was so hard watching her go through so much. Her passing seemed to be a pivital moment in my own health unraveling, my nervous system just couldn't cope and shut me down. I miss my mum terribly 😥

Now here I am stuck in the Emergency department getting my brain distorted to try to get my nervous system to calm down. Put a circuit breaker in the pain cycle.
I'm feeling very drained and still processing the experience but very hopeful it was worth it 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for all your best wishes, I really appreciate it 🥰

Hi again, well this roller coaster of mine sure is frustrating 🤬
So I had a booking for the Ketamine on Friday the 1st of October, it look them a week to send the paper work to confirm the booking with the hospital.
Finally got it and an hour later I get told its being moved to Monday the 4th 👿 Then find out theo can't take the time off to look after the kids so I call back to re schedule.
Through all this time dealing with the pain clinic I have spoken to 5 different receptionist's, having to explain myself every time 🤬
It is now rebooked for Friday the 15th. So so frustrating, when you go to a pain clinic with Chronic Pain and the only thing they offer you is a Ketamine infusion and it takes over a month to get it done!!!
Mental health is a big part of pain management and they have increased my pain and frustration massively.
WHY DOES EVERYTHING TAKE SO LONG?
Any way, I will keep you posted.
Wish me luck 🤞🤞🤞

Hope you are all well 🥰🥰

Hello, I'm back. Well its been a crazy few weeks. So I finally got in to see the pain specialist. She agrees I need Nerve blocks and probably some Facet joint blocks.
Because of my central sensitization syndrome she said I would be in worse pain if she did these now. Basically my nervous system is fried from being in so much pain for so long.
You have sensors all over your body that relay messages to your brain. Mine have been re wired and are super sensitive, meaning that things that are not painful my sensors feel that they are and relay that to my brain. Much more complicated than that but that's the easiest way to explain.
So because of this if she starts jabbing needles into nerves I will have a system shut down.
Sensitization syndrome is really hard to treat. I'm on strong opioids nerve blockers, anti inflammatories and muscle relaxants and still in pain everyday. When I'm having a flare it feels like I've got the Flu and have been Tazzered! Everything hurts, even my eyebrows 😱😱😱

She is recommending I have Ketamine Infusions which is a Anesthesia drug. I will be sedated to try and calm my nervous system. She wants me to have 7 days in hospital. It may only last a couple of months of Not at all?????
My health insurance doesn't cover this treatment so I would have to pay $10,000 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
I have decided to do a 24hr treatment to see if it works for me?

Trust me to get the weird, hard to treat, expensive condition 😭🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😈🤬🤬🤬😈😈😈🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😈
Onto of an Auto Immune Arthritis, 6 bulged disc and a stuffed Jaw!

Sorry its a long post, I really hope you are all well and coping in lockdown. I miss you all so much.
I will keep you posted 🥰

Hi all, I have the results of my spinal MRI. 6 bulged disc's 😩
4 in my neck and 2 in my lower back.

Hi all, ok here is the UPDATE 🤪
Breathing and sleep specialist; Antibiotics for the pneumonia for at least 25 days, maybe more. Blood tests, lung function test. Cos I’m on immune suppressants for immune related Arthritis, my immune system is stuffed. Can’t fight infections.

Jaw Surgeon; agreed my jaw joint is full of Arthritis, both sides don’t have the disc to protect the bones from grinding when you open and close your mouth. Surgery is definitely an option. So New MRI TMJ joint. I have done all the non surgical treatments ✅ He explained that it’s a very complex problem and not always easy to fix. The intense Nerve pain I get across my face could be a separate problem 🤬

Rheumatologist was on Monday; He was really nice, listened, asked questions and even complimented me on my concise and very detailed Email ✅😅
He is Re evaluating my whole Diagnosis, agrees with why I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis but thinks there should have been more pain reduction with the 3 different Immune Suppressants I have tried 🤔
So Whole Spine MRI, Spect scan, which detects inflammation away from the spine. Heaps of blood tests. Heart ultrasound.

I am also going back to the Pain Management clinic just to cover all bases, get another opinion 🤞🤞🤞🤞

So there you have it, complex is an understatement 💯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

My New Job Description “ HEAD RESEARCHER”
Subject. “ MELANIE BOSCH “

Miss you all, keep you posted 🥰

Ok I have packed up everyone's orders, I will PM you the prices 😁
