Saturday, August 1, 2009 | A General Update story

 I haven't writing for awhile and i know i said I would do it every day. Don't know why I said that I know myself better. I say I will do something like that and never do. So I will write when I can that's the best I can do.

 

Ok the stint has been out for 2 weeks now and for the most part I feel good, alittle uncomfortable now and then but better.

Weened off the pred now to, I have started to cough again 2 or 3 days after my last pill it started. The pred wasn't for my fibro but it did help alot , now alot of the pain that was gone is back. I'm sleeping better and my stomach isn't messed up now so there is some good to beong done with the pred.

 

Johnna moved this week finally. Cute appartment alittle smaller but up stairs so safer. The complex is very clean and nice. I hope she can relax soon all this upserment is good for her.

 

Hubby and son went to the horse show so I'm home alone for the night, time to relax.

This week I got the kiney stint removed, OH what a releaf. The feeling of having to pee 24/7 is gone. I hope it worked, I go back in 5 months for another x-ray and we'll see then.As long as not goes on in the mean time.

  I also dropped the Pred dose to 1 tab a day now, my stomach feel alittle better,but I've noticed some of my fibro pain is starting again. I wasn't taking the pred for fibro but it did help.Not that I want to take pred all the time.

 Lil L spent the night last night, this is the first time I've seen him sence the tuesday after his surgery. His voice is diffrent, he sounds like a little boy and not so nasely. He sounds so cute!

 This week was also Big L's 30th birthday, maybe I'll get to see him some time. This thing between Sarha and I still has been worked out. Don't know if it will ever. I said I would talk to her but they have to come down here. I miss seeing my son but not his little_______.

Well gotta feed the kids.

Well I've decided Dr's suck. My PCP was not in on friday, I had a appointment and they called and canceled. Now I have to reschulde that one, I want to talk to him about help with not smoking. The last time we talked about it he said when I come in Oct. we would talk about it but I wanted to start now. On tuesday I went to the kidney Dr., another joke I waited in the waiting room for a hour, then in the room for a half hour. Finaly he came in asked " how are you feeling?", felt my kidnet area and said " ok I'll see you next week and we'll remove the stint".All that for nothing, just to come back again.

I seen the lung Dr. last week he's a joke to,He did lower my pred dose alittle, But didn't really care how I felt or what I wanted to ask or say. I told him my stomach is tore up, I'm not sleeping, my ankles and legs are retaining water. He said "yea that's all from the Pred" well No crap I knew all that, I wanted him to tell me how to atleast fix my stomach. But he was no help eaither! I like my PCP, and told him after this round of the "speical" Dr's. I 'am not seeing any others. If he cann't fix it, it will stay broken. I'm so TIRED of seeing doctors I've missed so much work lately, I'm lucky I have a good boss or I might not have a job now.

 And this Pred is not only mess up my stomach, making me retain fluid, and sleeping less it is also makeing me even more of a bi-ch. I got so mad tonight over the landlord cutting the grass on the race track and coming in the yard and making 1 pass with her mower down the side of the horse fence. I really flipped, yea it looks dumm but we can cute the rest and you wont even see where she cut. And the race track  no one see's anyway. Oh well bad day just carried over to be a bad night. Now I'am going to bed, GOOD NIGHT!
