My medical problems abound. I went to the ER on Sunday because I was feeling very sick, weakness, racing heart, nausea, shaking…I thought maybe panic attack but I was worried to ignore it because RS was going to pick up his parents at the airport and I didn’t know how long he’d be gone. It turns out my sodium was low, almost low enough for them to admit me. They gave me a bag of saline and said I could stay in observation for the night but they wouldn’t force me to. Yeah, right. So I went on my merry way with the instruction to eat a lot of salty foods and drink only when I’m thirsty. I think I over hydrated myself but I was thirsty…I dunno. I feel ok now. I just can’t eat fatty foods. I get nauseous.

Now, I woke up this morning and my hand is USELESS because the pain is too intense for me to move it. I have a very high pain tolerance and this is overwhelming. I called the dr and have another appt this afternoon. The X-ray was normal so it’s something in the tendons, LIKE I SAID. I know he can’t help me immediately beyond giving me pain meds, which do not work for me.

Im so angry, I’m not holding back at the dr. Im going to spill everything and MAKE him listen. Im tired of being brushed aside. Something is WRONG. And I don’t know if anything is connected but everything went haywire three weeks ago. I need someone to connect the dots for me. And I BETTER not hear that I need to lose weight and this will all magically disappear.
