So I started this on Tuesday, and fell asleep in the middle. Completed it today, with a sucktastic ending. I'd say my life is a farce, but this entire fucking year is a farce. If only it will end.

So, Tuesday, I:

1. Woke up at 5am. Realized I was hungry. Didn't want to get up, ate some sunflower seeds I keep on the bedside table for that purpose.
   
2. ( Read more... )

TL;DR: syringe full of fluid drained from behind my knee. Cortisone injected through same needle stick. Could put my heel to teh floor immediately! Some pain still, followthrough telemedicine appt in 2 weeks. If still problems, refigure ( Read more... )

Right now I'm in a lot of pain - physical pain. I don't know why. My right knee won't straighten completely - it feels like my hamstring is strung-bow-tight. My thigh, about 3-5 inches above the knee, hurts when I stand and walk on it, along with my knee feeling swollen. Most of the skin area around the knee is tender to the touch, tho if I'm not ( Read more... )

So, just after I've pretty much recovered, mentally, from me in hospital then FIL in hospital, and other Dealing With Shit... last sunday I started having an earache. It felt mostly outer ear, but my sinuses were weirdly clogged. So, since I was going to doctorville anyway for my regularly scheduled appt with the endocrinologist, I figured I'd see ( Read more... )

i'm sorry, this really does end up better looking when I'm making a list, to be an html list. Much neater.

• C dragged me awake at 9am to eat food so I could take meds, and also to do infusion. (circa 40 minutes task, eating happening while infusing)
  
• I managed to get myself dressed and dragged downstairs to get my hair brushed/rebraided in time ( Read more... )

With the information I have today, I think it's probably Not A Good Idea I go as far away from civilization as Baitcon. I strongly suspect the MedStaff will be happy about this decision.

So Tuesday started with me throwing up about an hour after I took my morning meds. I felt shitty the rest of the day, and didnt' eat anything. In the afternoon my temp was up to 102, so R dragged me in to Urgent Care associated with the pile of doctors in a few buildings clumped together that I refer to as Doctorville. Most of my unwillingness was ( Read more... )

Yesterday, the migraine leapt up and bit me again. I pretty much slept all day. At one point I asked R to help with the compression stockings on my legs, because I was overdue for dealing with that, and between the pain in my shoulders, and the migraine, I couldn't properly reach. That was overly exciting, as I found out when I got a phone call, R ( Read more... )

Today, I:

• Laid in bed for 5 hours, during which I did not sleep overnight. I expect this is due to having woken up around 8pm yesterday after taking migraine meds and letting my body be unhappy.
  
• Received a phone call from the doctor's office where I had a 10:30 am appointment to get my anti-hive shot. Apparently, they had not received the ( Read more... )

Since Chessiecon, I've had no mental energy. I spent 2 days with a migraine that suddenly left (and hasn't even been lurking)... 3 days, it started Sunday at Chessiecon ... And when Otter decided he wanted to go out Ingressing while it was still double AP to push for L11, I was all rah rah let's go. But otherwise... I'm randomly falling asleep. I ( Read more... )
