Hi all

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I spent the weekend at my moms...

Here is the latest for all you inquiring minds =)

Friday morning rhuemy wanted me to be admitted into hosp, but since

he does not have hospital privledges (because he doesn't want to be

limited to the amount of time he spends with a patient - he chooses

not to have privledges so he can spend as much time as he wants =)..)

He has to go through my primary to get me admitted. Well primary

didn't feel I needed admitted that I was fine, and that whatever was

going on was most likely viral and if that is the case there is

nothing anyone could do for me anyways. GRRRR So the two argued from

what I was told and right now neither are very happy with one

another. So rhuemy told me to go have a chest x-ray done over at the

hospital - I did and apparently there is no change with my lungs

since my last chest x-ray 2 months ago. Rhuemy did have me double up

on the zithromax so I was done with it Friday - but did not notice a

change. So Rhuemy told me that since he knows I know myself that if I

feel I need to go to the hospital to go ahead and go and give him a

buzz on his cell phone. Mike decided it would be best if we spent the

weekend at my mom's since she is a nurse, so that is what we did.

Spent most of the weekend in bed but itching like crazy and broke out

in hives. Hmmmm seems to be that I have now developed an allergy to

the one and ONLY antibiotic I have been able to take, so I am screwed

big time when the time comes that I need an antibiotic - UGGGGG Been

eating benedryl like candy and it isn't touching the hives nor the

itching - its not any of my other meds because I was told to stop

them earlier last week. I am starting to feel a little better today

but still very warn out, and still coughing like crazy. I just

started getting my voice back but I noticed when I try to talk a

little bit I go into a coughing frenzy so I try not to talk unless I

have to. Mike is checking in on me through the cell and the rhuemy is

keeping tabs on me as well. I see Rhuemy in two weeks as well as

primary and I am going to ask primary why he seems to be not

following me as closely as he did in the past - I mean he use to be

great and work well with all my other docs and now it seems as though

he is just slacking and not too concerned and well that aint going to

cut it with me and if I have to remind him that he missed my very

first stroke and rub it in his face and also remind him he is lucky I

did not go after him for malpractice well then I will!!!!! He does

not want to piss me off - and he knows it!!! ( When it comes to my

health do not f*&^ with me - you better be on top of everything ) all

my doctors know that, and they know I will speak my mind if I do not

feel they are doing a good job - I have the best of the best for a

reason - not to be blown off because you don't have time, or because

you just can't figure me out - They know I am not afraid to swear at

them, and they know if I feel they are doing a shitty job I WILL tell

them =)

My mom labels me the bitch patient from hell at times hehehehehe I

look at it like this - they went into their fields to help people,

and to always continue to learn throughout their time as doctors -

therefore, when patients like me come to them and they are stumped

well you know what - it is time to open up their medical books and

start learning again, refreshing themselves, researching, placing

calls to others, etc. so they can continue to help patients - geez

that is what they are making the big $$ for - because they sure in

the hell are not going to share their wealth with those of us who are

sick and can't afford the things they can - so they better be damn

good at their job...

Boy, do I feel sorry for my primary when I see him in two weeks, he

is going to get an earful from me...

I am glad I didn't get hospitalized because I hate the damn place but

if this doesn't get better soon and then come to find out I should

have been hospitalized - some heads are going to roll...

So I am home, laying low, and following rhuemy's orders!!!

I got your messages on the answering machine - I didn't know

if you are working or not today - so if your home give me a buzz or

give me a buzz tomorrow.....

Hope everyone had a great, painfree, and peaceful weekend...

Time for me to go back to the recliner...
