Had to get my new IV in again. I got almost all the way home and realized it was dripping blood everywhere. I had a defective hep lock. Lucky me! Always!
So I had to go all the way back to my doctors office. It takes 2 hours to get there so it wasn't just like running back into town either. It took 2 people both with forceps to get the stupid thing off!
I had a shipment of meds coming in and they don't leave them in my porch if someone isn't here. Everyone left my house. Which is weird because there are usually multiple bodies here every single day.
So lame! My guy thought my doctor did something wrong and was ready to fight him. He freaked out. Pretty embarrassing. But if we are going to be mad at anyone we should be mad at the manufacturing company that makes these stupid things.
To top it all off I had such a bad headache when I was there he gave me magnesium, b6, and procaine through the IV. It helped with the pain but I could barely walk. And it made me feel like I was peeing my pants the same way contrast does. I guess procaine is an anesthetic. And the vitamins in that big of doses lower your blood pressure and make you super lightheaded. So lame.
So ya. Not fun. I puked in the doctors office too. I was a sweaty pukey blubbering mess in front of all those other patients. I hate today. So much.
And my nausea has got so bad I've asked for suppositories of nausea meds. You know it's bad when your willing to shove things up your butt. Lol. Seriously now!

Oh my poor headache buddy!
That's awful.
So sorry.
Don't be embarrassed though; it's not your fault.
I have the suppositories too (or had them, until someone cleaned the fridge)! They're not hard to insert at all, if that helps! Sometimes I double the dose (shhh).
Go to bed, and get some rest!

IHL~I'm late responding to this, but wanted to send love your way. You have endured so much it really makes me wanna cry. But you are headed in a positive direction. Some day you will write a book & help others. Your son will look up to you for your valiant battle. Sending love your way!

IHL, HUGS HUGS HUGS!!!!!!!!!!
... and by the way, just an fyi as I recall... you probably have had worse days! Not that it is a good thing, but maybe your "worst" days are getting a tiny bit better, and soon they will all go away and you will be well.
