I got the results of the lab test I was waiting for, and they were good, as I hoped/expected they would be. (Hopefully) The last test is the CAT scan, and that will be over with this afternoon. I don't know if/when I'll be able to view the radiologist's report before my nephrologist's appointment on the 7th, when hopefully I'll find out how all this s*** fits together.

I saw my pdoc today, and I'm going to stop taking the Rexulti. Hopefully I'll start to come down without becoming depressed. It's a shame really... I've been in such a good mood lol

My pdoc appointment was at 7:20am, and my CAT scan isn't until 2:15pm. It's about 9:30 now, so I still have quite a chunk of time to fill...

And I am not doing well with not having enough to do right now. I'm too restless.

It is.

But there are test results that are NOT good, and I understand enough to know what one of the things wrong with me is, but I can't put everything together. That's what the doctor's for though.
I think the CAT scan will be important.

Thank you

I was very, very high yesterday. I am probably manic. I hope that stopping the Rexulti helps. If not, I will have to add on some extra gabapentin, which usually (at least) helps. Discontinuing the Rexulti was my idea... hopefully the right one.
I do feel calmer this morning. I know part of that is because Corey is home. But maybe it is because I started cutting the Rexulti in half Sunday and didn't take any last night.

I waited 45 minutes for my 5 minute CAT scan. It was weird... the tech had me lay on my stomach, and the pillow smelled like vinegar lol.
It looks like I won't be able to view the radiologist's report until Monday, the day before my nephrologist's appointment.

I got my new license in the mail, so I was able to finish the application for my medical marijuana card. I expect to get an email with a temporary card in a week- week and a half, and should be able to use it at a dispensary immediately. The real thing should arrives sometime within the month the temp is good.

BJ's called me late yesterday afternoon to tell me my glasses are ready. I'll go get them today. I LOVED them when I bought them. Let's hope I LIKE them enough when I pick them up to actually wear them. I'm blind as a bat and should be wearing them all the time, but only wear them to drive or watch things like football on TV now lol.

My nephrologist called and left a message for COREY- NOT ME- saying that "Kathryn is okay", but if there is an emergency he should take me to the ER "immediately".
He also said that I need to call his office after 1pm on Monday (my appointment with him is scheduled for 3pm on Tuesday) to discuss my CAT scan results.

My guess is he called Corey because he is my emergency contact, but why couldn't he call me and explain the results to me over the phone then instead?



Something is very wrong

He probably did not have your number in front of him.
I'm glad that Corey has been informed.

I hope that when you get the results, you find that whatever it is can be
well managed and that you are o.k.
