No title Mood
Wednesday, September 2, 2009

Well, I took my dex this morning and tonight I feel fine, which surprises me.  I am trying to somewhat control my eating.  I didn't do well today, but I didn't do too bad either.  I did break down and buy some choclate chips.  But I got the dark kind cause dark choclate is supposed to be healthier.  I have a feeling I'm going to have to take the ativan in order to get some sleep tonight, since I feel wide awake and I have to do some running around tomorrow.

 

I tried to do some crocheting and knitting tonight, but I got easily frustrated.  I hope this isn't something that's going to be ongoing.  We'll see.  I'll give it a try again tomorrow.  I'm hoping I was just distracted because I had company.

 

I have been slightly short of breath ever since my transfusion last Friday.  It is so slight I really don't know whether to mention it to the doctor or not.  Dr. C doesn't seem to like complaints.  That

s the only thing that really bothers me about him.  I don't think he knows me enough to know I am not a person who complains just for the sake of complaining.  Oh well, I just have to learn to stand up for myself.

 

There seems to have been a misunderstanding about my Revlimid prescription.  I got the impression from Dr. Martin that they would order it, but since I hadn't heard anything since last week I called today and the charge nurse that's taking over for Lauren while she's on vacation until the 14th got in touch with him and he said that Dr. Chatrath would be prescribing the Revlimid.  So, I called and talked to Stephanie today and she said she would talk to him about it.  It gets so confusing figuring out which dr does what and who I should talk to about what.  I think I need to make an appointment with Dr. Mel so that I can get my flu shots and the other vaccinations that Dr. Martin suggested.  I think I will wait until the swine flu virus becomes available before I do that though.  Best to limit my time in the waiting room.
