I am way over this battle.................... Mood
Wednesday, May 13, 2009 | A Frustrating story

I am really tired of the same oldsame old. When does things ever get better? I just want things in my life to calm down for awhile. I amso over-whelmed with the same old shit. It just never ends..never. Last week it was just 1 drama after another. My daughter, who ha been sick at home 4 5 yrs now, got a head injury right be4 Easter. After 2 er visits, 2 visits to a specailist and her pcp. Nothing has changed 4 the better. So on Tuesday I took her to c the specialist again and for some more tests. Everything was  ok with the tests and right now she is just starting new meds. Then on Wednedsay my husband once again took the wrong insulin before going to bed. It was about 9:30 pm right be4 I was getting ready to go to work. Well what to do? How to leave him with r sick daughter who couldn't even take care of herself? His bs the last time went to under 40. The dr said call 911 will pita wouldn't go. So I left when I thought it was safe. Also on Tuesday and Wednesday my Mom went to the er because of a terrible nose bleed. Her nose was packed and she was sent home. On Thursday husband went to his eye dr where he had his retina attached last fall. He is still seeing double. The dr doesn't know what the problem is. Could be more strrokes or being daibetic. Waiting 4 cal back. Then on Friday I was going to thee drs to get my daughter meds. My head had been hurting 4 over 1 week. I asked the nurse there to take my bp. It was 158/102. She told me to call my dr right away. Having driven there by myself and being about 35 minutes from home. I sat 4 awhile in the parking lot to c if my headache would go away. I decided to go to Med-express. BY the time I get there the pain, upset stomach, dizzy and seeing double. My bp was 168/112. They called 911 to take me to the er

.After calling my daughters to come and get me. I had many tests taken and meds via iv. I was released and  have spent the next  4 days at home and in pain. I went to my pcp last night. She gave me a short course of pred plus pain meds. I was up all night with a terrible headache last night. I tried ice and heat, laying in a dark/quiet room. Having just taken a pain med I feel better 4  now.I am hoping 4 a better night. I need to get over this. Who will take care of my family? How will I ever get better with all the this shit always going on here.

    Oh dear me, Im so sorry, what a lot of problems. I worry about who will look after my family if I am ill (I havnt been well for a month now) I suppose something would be sorted out, they wouldnt just leave them would they?
    I hope you have got some meds for your b/p. What have they said is matter with you, other than this. Is it migraine?
    I certainly hope you feel better soon.
    Hang in there, thinking of you.xxx
