Thanks so much for your support :)
Today is the first day I've felt like getting out of the bed.
I don't know if it was taking off my last 10 BuTrans patch on Tuesday morning or starting the ER Morphine at the same time but.....I had a terrible week.
I had the weirdest feelings in my head until I woke up this morning. If that feeling had kept on I don't think I could have handled it. I was grouchy, exhausted, my feet were freezing (rare for me) had to stay in bed and was just absolutely miserable. I could not stay up for more than a few minutes at a time.
I had to have my cancer follow up CT scan on Thursday morning. Ever since I've lost Bubba I have a really hard time going into any medical facility. Thursday was not any different. I cried as I had them remove him as my emergency contact and just seeing his name and cell # on this screen just killed me.
The rest of Thursday just got worse in how I felt.
I stayed in the bed all day yesterday.
Then ! Lo and behold I woke up this morning feeling pretty bad but not really noticing that 'weird' feeling in my head. As the morning wore on and my meds kicked in I started feeling better. I got up, showered and actually Put make-up on ! WOW that is major for me.
I need a stove and I am so sick of asking my kids to take me places that I set off on my own to Home Depot. I was on my feet for 2 hours and when I got to the car I was still feeling ok.
Drove home and went straight to bed.....so scared that I had messed up badly by staying on my feet that long.
It's not 6:45 and I still feel ok. I can't hardly believe it and my 'head' actually feels clear and I can think straight.
It's just my first decent day since I started the ER Morphine but I pray I'll wake up tomorrow and feel like I do today.
I would feel so blessed if this new med works for me. Come May I'll have been down and out for 3 long years. I want a piece of my life back. I want to get out of this bed. I want to CLEAN my house !
Thank all of you that read this. I'll update in a few days.
Cross your fingers for me and say a little prayer please
