Howdy Ho Missouri Board:
I just wanted to come in and post and update everyone. On how I am doing and feeling. Friday was my last day for my IV treatments (antobotics) and my PICC line was removed from my arm. I was thrilled to finally get that thing out and to be free from having to make a trip to the hospital every day for the last 2 weeks. Terry & I went to the grocery store. But by the time I got home I just wanted to crawl back into bed and sleep. I had a CT-scan on Thursday but wont know the results until Monday due to the doc being gone.
Today has been my best day so far. I have only had to take 1 set of pain meds so far. The pain in my groin area is letting up and not hurting as bad as it had been. I am still taken it easy. Not lifting, bending, pulling ect anything I am not suppose to. I am proud of myself but determinted not to do anything that would put me back in the hospital.
I'm still having trouble eating certain foods. Chicken and a few other thing I can keep down. But everything else makes me extremely sick to my stomach. And I still have no energy at all. When I saw my OB/GYN he talked about putting me on antidepressants to my up and down mood swings. Not anger just the blues (sever crying spells for no reason). I declined them for right now and will see how I feel in a couple of weeks.
I am looking foward to the meeting on Monday. Terry is going to bring me as I still am unable to drive. He has been a blessing to me in more ways then I could ever begin to explain.
Thanks for all the prayers. I know I havent been on the board like I use to. I'm just having a hard time trying to get back to my ol self again. I love ya'll and look foward to seeing some of you at the meeting.
Love ya
Mel
