omg… health issues…. again…

so ya’ll have noticed by now, no updates since the 2nd. Well I didn’t do any updates on the weekend, I usually take those off. And then on Monday, the 5th. I was having shooting pains in my right arm, chest pain, dizziness and shortness of breath. And after having a few TIA’s and a possible stroke (?) I decided at lunch to go to the VA ER in town. And next thing you know, I’m hooked up to monitor’s, doing the blood draw, getting a shot, and passing out…

yeah, I was prepared to be admitted! but NOOOOOOOOOO!
get this, the hospital they called had no beds. Okay, SO?! There are at least five other hospital’s that they could’ve transferred me to! So what the eff??!!

They kept me till my blood pressure dropped to a ‘reasonable’ level, and then released me with a 24 hour bed rest. No meds, no pain meds, no NADA! “Oh your primary doctor should be calling you to schedule a follow up.” No seriously, really? DUH!

OH Yes! I’m a little more than ticked!! I am filing a complaint. This is effin’ ridiculous. So we want to admit you, but since the one hospital we tried has no beds, you can go home? WTF?!

And okay, my bp is actually better today, and the side effects from the shot I got have gone away. But OMG! My right shoulder through my bicep muscle is killing me. I’ve taken my Tylenol, and I’ve been icing it whenever possible. And now I’m trying to locate a sling, as it feels better when it’s elevated. But obviously I’m still typing with it. Ah! I have to work. But when I’m not typing, I’m keeping it iced and elevated. Takes the pain from a 10 to an 8.
So I may or may not be blogging the rest of the week. I know a lot of people will understand, and thank you! HUGS!

oooh good news! One of my new favorite supervisor’s, just took my on call hours this weekend, so I can recuperate, and I’m taking her’s at the end of the month. She’s my new favorite, cause she’s doing this for me on such short notice!! Squee!!! If anything, Friday after work, I might be driving down to the Indy VA ER to see what they can do.

Anywho, if anything, I’ll be posting the calendar days for the rest of the week! Ya’ll have a safe, happy and healthy week!!

ugh, I’m sickie..

I tried to send a small post yest, but the wifi at home was wonky.

I went in to work yesterday, and after laying my head on the desk-cause the room was spinning, I decided I couldn’t work like that. So I went to see my boss. Who wasn’t thrilled…my co-worker was also going home sick. So that meant no coverage…

I did go home, and called my doc, explained my symptoms, and he called in a script for me. yay, Antiobiotics. Still nothing for the aching cough. Aching because when I cough, it has been hurting my ribs! ouch! I’m sick and I’m whiny, sorry.

so today, the boss called, and asked if I could come in and work the day shift, my co-worker is still off. so one hour down, seven to go. I can already hear my pillow missing me. ugh… I hate feeling like this. No fun! 😦

the good news, if I get it done now, hopefully that means I’ll be fine over the summer. A summer cold never seems to go away-just linger. oh great, now I’m sneezing too. remember whiny? Sorry…

so anywho, I’ve pre-ordered the next Black Dagger Brotherhood book from J.R. Ward. OMG, the price on this one. I hope it’s really worth the $$.

And once again, if you have an iPhone/iPad- download AppsgoneFree I have downloaded some more great apps from that one, review them when I can. 🙂

Ya’ll take care, avoid getting sick. This is not fun!! No way, No how!
drink plenty of fluid, take your vitamins, and wash your hands. If someone you work with touches your keyboard or phone, take a clorox cloth and wipe them down.

Hugs
