This past March I started having constant pain in the right side of my face. Mainly every single one of my teeth on the right side. Decided to visit the dentist. After X-rays they determined nothing wrong that would be causing the pain I described. There may be one thing irritating the gums causing some pain so they did a deep cleaning. It did not help. Hmmmm… I wait a few days and now it’s just getting worse. So now make a trip to on call dr that day. They’re kinda stumped too, but decide let’s try some steroids and get me some additional migraine meds since at this point I’m getting daily migraines.

Within 2 days feeling remarkably well. But… Once the steroid regimene is over the constant pain quickly reappears. So next trip to primary dr. By my description he says I it sounds like trigeminal neuralgia. What?! If interested you can learn more about it in detail here http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/trigeminal_neuralgia/detail_trigeminal_neuralgia.htm

Because of the research I had done about entire side facial pain it was actually something I learned a bit about and was in total denial that because I did NOT want it to be true. During researching I had told a good friend, I sure hope I don’t have this, but symptoms are spot on. It is labeled “the suicide disease” because of the chronic pain and how painful. I share my concern with the nickname with dr and he says well, if you don’t control it, yes it can be unbearable, but he was confident we could manage with meds. Hmmmm… I get a scrip for more steroids AND gabbepentin (?).

What causes this I have asked many times and a few dr. replies have been along the lines of it’s the luck of the draw. If you know me, I do have a propensity for having uncommon medical conditions. LOL

Feel good once steroids kick in. You can’t take those for long though. And the Gabbepentin I call the devil drug. For me personally awful stuff. Incredibly sleepy and zoned out, feel high or wasted. Just bad stuff. After on it about 3-4 steady weeks it did start to control some of the pain. But you still have the awful side effects.

Time wasn’t on my side because my referral to a neurologist wasted about 6 weeks due to dr schedules. Insurance co didn’t want play nice about trying other drug that he wanted to switch me too. By the time I did meet with neurologist we agreed not a good drug for me, switch that up to another one I can’t remember the name of right now. Went through some new side effects. Constantly tired. Felt like I couldnt carry on a conversation because serious short term memory loss. Just to name a few. In short, this drug was very hard to tolerate. And, certainly difficult to run a business.

Drug 3 to try is carbamazepine. Worked a little better, but now I’m nauseated often along with other side effects. At this point prescribed depokote for headaches, and I get a referral to neuro-surgeon. Need to manage the pain itself until surgery.

First meeting with neuro surgeon it is clear surgery will be our best course, which I was already on board with from my own research. The surgery is called Microvascular Decompression. More detail here
http://www.mayfieldclinic.com/PE-MVD.htm#.VJDiiIg76rU

In short, the surgery is a craniotomy wherein they drill a hole through skull to get to nerve area to place a Teflon sponge between the artery and nerve. While in that area they found some other arteries or nerves attaching to this nerve and were able to address those.

However, December is busiest time of year for surgeries and dr schedules I had to wait about 6 weeks for surgery. That was nearly a week ago. Surgery went well I’m told. Recovery for me was not easy. I’m feeling better, but it’s slower than I hoped for. I still experience some of the pains before surgery because the nerve needs to calm down.

For those 6 weeks I would ask questions, but no one really knew for sure. Everyone is so individual and reacts differently. There aren’t many of these procedures performed so not much documentation or info from other patients to find.

I still have some recovery time but I have high hopes for overall success. I am very grateful for all the well wishes and prayers along the way

Transmit is a comprehensive FTP program that can also be used for working with Amazon S3 accounts and WebDav.  Before Transmit, I was using a combination of a Firefox plugin to handle AS3 files and Filezilla to handle my FTP accounts. Transmit allows me to have them all organized into one app.  I setup different folders for each client, inside of which are their FTP account(s), AS3 accounts, and more.

Transmit is only available for Mac users at this time, and does cost $34 to purchase.  But it looks good, works super fast, and is worth every penny.

Whether you operate a brick-and-mortar storefront and want to expand online or are just entering the eCommerce arena for the first time, Authorize.Net offers reliable and effective payment processing solutions.  This company boasts a large and loyal client base.  And in addition to it’s widely used payment gateway, it provides hosting services, shopping cart software and everything else you need to process credit card payments online.  Authorize.Net offers every service a merchant needs to do business, but if you’re just getting started, the whole process can be intimidating.

In contrast to many other services we reviewed, Authorize.Net operates their own successful payment gateway rather than contracting it out. If you already have a merchant account, a highly customized web store and feel comfortable with some of the technical aspects of configuration, the service is among the most economical and reliable. In fact, many other merchant account providers integrate the Authorize.Net payment gateway into their service plans—it’s that reliable.

This is a hosted solution with very fast servers.  It has all the features – built-in split testing, pre-populate landing page fields, built in SEO options, countdown timers, buy buttons, and loads of dynamic elements.

If you need multiple landing pages for various sites and domains, I recommend LeadPages for ease of use and conversions.

One of my favorite features of Wunderlist is being able to set due dates on different to-do items, and also setting recurring tasks so they show up every day or every week depending on what it is.

Some other great features…you can forward emails to your account which automatically creates a task. Task lists can easily be printed with just a click. And you can share your lists with anyone quickly and easily.

If you want to bump it up a notch, you can also upgrade to Pro or Business which allows you to use Wunderlist in a team environment. Attach files, assign tasks, have documented conversations right there in the app.
