I went to the dr today for lower back pain but while I was there I said I felt faint. They gave me juice and crackers. The dr looked in my ears because I said I felt like they were closing up. She thought my back pain was just from my period even though it was the day before my period and severe when my friend with benefits was over.Not your normal period backache!

I called N2. She found an urgent care that is open till midnight and can do ivs! (I do NOT want to go to the ER!). They're open till midnight! She has to do an errand but will pick me up around six since I can't drive feeling faint. I told the nurse I'd been feeling lightheaded and faint especially when walking, my mouth is super dry, I've had diarrhea for days probably because my regular doctor told me to take miralax every day! I was feeling this way at 8:30 this morning in the drs waiting room and told the doctor how I was feeling but she thought all I needed was something to eat. Eating didn't help! Not even lunch with Noah helped! She was more concerned with my back pain. Which I'm all set for now but the muscle relaxer might be dehydrating or at least give me a dry mouth. My mouth is so dry that it hurts and biotene only lasts less than 5 minutes.What a quandary. I haven't taken the new muscle relaxer yet. I guess I should write down all the meds I'm on. At least the nurse on the phone had the flow chart that said to get IV fluids! I don't think I've ever been this dehydrated before! The biotene for dry mouth isn't lasting but for 5 minutes! Aha! Someone told the doctor I saw and she said that the diarrhea wasn't mentioned at the appointment. Now N2 is driving home and then going back out for something then putting me on the waitlist online and THEN picking me up! I should eat and get my med list together.
