So what's been happening with me

Mar 15, 2009

Whew, where to start.  It has been so long.
I have been having some issues since Jan. 30.  I was experiencing severe pain in my right side after lunch and could not catch my breath.  I began to get dizzy and nauseas and could not stand up.  Work called an ambulance and when the paramedics got there, the pain had subsided, but I was still dizzy and nauseas.  I told them I did not want to go to the hospital but they said I was going anyway.
In the ambulance, the took a blood glucose reading and determined that my glucose level had dropped to the point where most people would be unconsious.  I also has a fever.
They gave me glucose and the dizziness and nausea went away.  I then got a splitting headache.
They took me out of their area to Humber River Hospital and since it was not their area, they had to unload me from the stretcher and sit me in a chair in the waiting room.  I waited for 4 1/2 hours and not one person had been called in.  Not one of the six patients on stretchers that were there before me had moved either.
At this point, I just wanted to go home and lie down.  So I left.
Since then, I have been to see the surgeon.  Since I was still having intermitent pain, he decided to do a swallow test and a CAT scan.  Had the swallow test on Friday, CAT scan is on Wednesday.

Any"hoo" on a happy note, I bought a size 16 jeans and an X shirt from Pennington's.  I get non-stop comments about how beautiful and sexy I am.  Fraser can't stop smiling at me.  That feels good.  I even feel sexy in my new jeans....I think my butt looks awesome in them !  ha ha ha
I am only 4 lbs away from "ONEDERLAND"  !

Yesterday, we were in Guelph and we went to the mall with Fraser's Mom.  I went into two normal size stores and tried on jackets.....both times, the x-large fit !  This is a whole new experience for me and I love it !

More and more of Fraser's tops are fitting me and tonight I am wearing his Nike track pants !

Dr. Huynh says that I may only get down to 160 - 170, but I am not going to give up on 140 - 150.

Ta ta for now.
