Hi guys. Woke up this morning at 10 a.m. which tells me I am still sick even if I am out of the hospital. I am a 6 a.m. riser, no alarm clock needed woman, on a normal day.

They have me on a new antibiotic that is good for the strain of Ecoli bacteria that I have and finally am feeling like a human being. See some specialists next week and they may just put me on a low grade antibiotic for a short time each month for prevention.

All I know is I am sick of the medical bills that keep piling up. I personally think that since they cultured last Saturday January 8th, a "sample" and knew by Monday January 10th, the Cipro they gave me was not going to fight it and I had to wait till Wednesday January 12th for my appointment. That is 5 days I was on an antibiotic doing no good, 3 days that someone in the lab who cultures, knew it was doing me no good. By then, last Wednesday, I was so sick my blood pressure was out of whack and would elevate so much between laying down, sitting and standing up, that I was nauseous and light headed with even simple movements.

The problem is the ER does not talk with your GP or Lab people to your GP in a timely manner and if your GP is not there full time, you have no back up system at all. It is totally idiotic and I am going to be up someone's hind end tomorrow morning. Their miss-communication is going to cause me a huge co-pay and I think it is baloney.

The good news:

Between throwing up like the exorcist and having a fever and no appetite...I expect weigh in on Thursday to be good at WW. Loving the new points plus program!

I have no energy to write a new installment today but promise to have one or two up tomorrow. Need some happiness in my day!!

Heading back to bed!

Thanks for all the well wishes and kindness. I do appreciate reading them and your patience while I recovered.

Glad you are home and hopefully on the way to a recovery. I agree that most likely they may put you on a long term antibiotic to prevent the infections. They just have to figure which one will work that you aren't resistant to. Good luck with your appointment next week. I don't blame you for being upset with all the delays and miscommunications. All that time just gave the infection time to get worse.

Hope you are feeling up to an update soon, looking forward to hearing about your trip.

Definitely joining in. With lines like "I cannot rest until I know the people who will come to the house when we end up in some horrific accident, may be able to say a lot of things about me but one of them will be, "she left a tidy house" and "It was here I also decided to count how many nut bags I ran into on this trip" I was somewhat convinced that you were my long lost twin I simply must read about this adventure

Glad that you are starting to feel better.

 

[lovegrumpy]

Glad to hear you are doing better.

 

[eeyoresnr]

so glad to hear you are home.....hope they get this figured out for you soon

 

[Dugette]

Glad you're feeling better, Dawn! Looking forward to more of your trip report!

 

[Pamlur]

I have been so very worried, although I never managed to type it out here. I hope you start to get better really fast, now.

 

[NancyLuvsMickey]
