Mom home safe
So my mom got out of the hospital this afternoon. They still don't know what's wrong with her despite the whole barrage of tests. They told her to go to a rheumatologist to interpret the tests. She was supposed to go see one anyway, so this is just more reason to go. She's just happy to be home, and with Tracy. He is staying for the weekend before he has to go back to work on Monday. i wish I could have gone up there to be with her but I didn't have the money. Plus I've been going through a hard time myself so I don't know if I would have had the energy to help. Now she's moving, so she has to get everything packed. They wanted me to come up and help with that, but I have doctor's appointments. I've been waiting for a month to see my general doctor, so I don't want to miss that appointment. I have this deep cough that won't go away. I don't cough anything up, just a deep hurting cough. And I've been getting diarrhea every morning too. Just wanting to see what he says. I hope I've lost weight by the time I go back... I'd been gaining a lot of weight eating out so I'm trying to get back down, cooking at home. Even last night after spending 5 hours in the ER I came home and cooked. I didn't want to, but it had to be done. I'm keeping with my August goal of only once per week going out to eat. I want my FitBit.
Last night I lay down in bed and was asleep by 9:30 I was so tired. I woke up at 4 am and stayed up until 6 am then slept till noon. I volunteered for an hour and a half then went home to be with Geo and get his antibiotics. I took a short nap, but I don't think I will have trouble sleeping tonight. I just need someone to talk to. I hope I can find a phone buddy for the night. it just helps me relax.

Thats great news that your mom is out of the hospital! I sure hope the rheumatologist can get to the bottom of whats happening.... they will probly order more specific tests which may help alot with getting a correct diagnosis. Wow that would be so difficult to be not feeling well and have to pack to move :(
I agree you need to keep your doctors appt since the cough has been going on that long ..... its probly something thats just gonna have to run its course but its always better to have it checked out.
wow, i would love a good night\'s sleep like that! my ideal is 7 hours of straight sleep and then a 3 hour nap around 12, whenever i get to sleep like that i feel soooooo good like i could take on the whole world and super up and positive from it.
hope your mom gets better and you too! its so frustrating when they don\'t know what is wrong! xxoo
