Thanksgiving Day (heck the whole month of November) was tough. For someone with taste and smell issues and some anxiety, Thanksgiving was a lot of pressure (a whole lot of cooking and eating). I wanted to taste everything perfectly, and I though I did taste for the most part, it was definitely muted. I felt myself anxious and sad about it. I tried to hide it from my family, but they could tell I wasn't myself. I perked up a bit after the meal was over - because it was over and I didn't have to think about it anymore. Eating became a bit of a chore for me for a while, and I'm just at a point now that I don't stress about it anymore.
The end of November was pretty busy ~ it was time to start decorating for Christmas, I went on Briana's school field trip and of course, Briana had to visit Santa...
More on that coming soon!
The stress of November lead me to search for a new, more competent ENT. I called at the end of November and couldn't get an appointment with my new ENT until the beginning of Jan. I was definitely willing to wait ~ his reviews were amazing. So, December was a time to keep as busy as possible, keep hoping my senses would return back to normal with time and wait patiently to see the ENT.
