I'm a little scared...

Jun 18, 2007 09:56


Seems the physical ailments I hinted about are a little more serious than I thought.  I went to the Quick Care Yesterday because the pain in my leg was so severe and coupled with the shortness of breath I had been experiencing as of late...I decided I couldn't wait until my Doctor's appointment on Tuesday.  I had an inkling of what it might be...and the Doctors agreed.  They think I may have a blood clot in my lower leg.  I am going in Today at 1:30 for an UltraSound and I should know at about 2:00pm the next course of action.

The quick Care Doctor gave me RXs for Pain Reliever(anti-inflamitory), Muscle Relaxers and Blood Thinners.  The Later happens to be in Shot form.  They need to be administered like insulin shots...In the belly.  Thank God I have a Bunch of Fat-Wads where it can go into.  I couldn't give myself the shot.  I am and always have been terrified of needles.  So Lisa came all the way over from her house to give me a shot last night and then returned the morning to give me another.  I never could have done it.  Thank You Lisa.

We shall see what the outcome will be.

friends, dr. visits, sick
