Poop heads anyways.
Yesterday I went into the Clinic to get my two Cimzia shots in my belly as I am supposed to have them every 28 days for my many forms of arthritis. After reading my Doctors notes from the last injection the nurse called a Dr..he said call the prescribing Dr ( she has moved to the great city of Bismarck, ND...good luck to all who she touches there) then the nurse attempted to call the Rheumatologist...who was busy with patients...SO...
The nurse felt that I had a significant reaction to the last injections and I should see the Doctor in Fargo. Good thing I have an appointment with him next week.
I was hoping to get these injections behind me as they made me really short of breath and tired for three days. I had meals prepared and laundry done up...so the three days would be easier.
Well so much for having my poop in a pile.
...other people like Doctors who had 27 days to prepare and come up with a plan...do not have their poop in a pile.
Buggers anyways.
My Pain was worse yesterday...might be weather related as our high was -3F or -19C. I had to run errands in town, in and out of the car multiple times. We were in town for four hours. ( I had a list a mile long to accomplish)
I took two Tylenol and a gummy and had a long nap after we got home so the Christmas Card count remains at 117.

Seems like lots of people dropped the ball on this issue for you.
ReplyDeleteMy areas of arthritis were on high alert yesterday too, with temps at -4 to 1F and wicked wind chills, along with a change in the pressure...I felt a bit creaky and painful.
You did a good job of drawing a pile of poop! Well done. Send THAT as a card to the doctor who dropped the ball!
;)
Sorry to learn about your ailments. And, uh, thanks for the pile of poop. Well done!
ReplyDeleteOh my!! Someone really dropped the ball in terms of your care plan! Hopefully that will all get better after your appointment next week.
ReplyDeleteKeeping up with healing prayers for you and Gene. Darn doctors just want to give drugs and see if they work. Never mind all the awful side effects.
ReplyDeleteAt least you have a good attitude about all of this. Much better than I would have. I'm so sorry about the ineptitude of the medical personel surrounding you. It's cold here again today, but not that cold. We have a wonderful mix of freezing rain and snow coming this afternoon and of course we had plans for tonight. I just love the winter. If I say it enough I may start believing it. Hang in there my friend.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs,

Somebody always had to through a wrench into the situation at the worst of times.
ReplyDeleteShoot! Sometimes I wonder about Drs?
ReplyDeleteOh, good grief! But I'm glad somebody is actually being cautious about side effects, anyways. (Wasn't my experience in oncology at Essentia, as you know.) Being out and about for four hours in this sub-zero weather...no wonder you were in more pain and needed a nap. I hope they'll get their poop in a pile soon.
ReplyDeleteHow altogether frustrating :(

Poop is a good way to describe this. I'm guessing it is the weather making you feel this way. I think I would feel better visiting with the doctor first before taking the shot. Hoping he has a solution for you not to have any side effects. Glad you already have the appointment set up.
ReplyDeleteAll that car riding makes it worse. We are at the medical folks mercy and they know it.
ReplyDeleteTalk about frustrating
ReplyDeleteThank goodness for nurses!
ReplyDeleteLike the others, I would be frustrated. All your preparations for them and then to not happen.
