Frank, Sorry you're still hurting.

~~~~~

Hi all Not much going on today, except my friendly neighborhood muscle fatigue. Get these days every once in awhile. At least it wasn't yesterday, LOL.

So just kicking back watching movies, reading, and surfing the net a little. Should be back to my stubborn self by tomorrow.

Had the interview I think it went well, the Director of Nursing seemed to like me and my answers....she said she had never laughed so hard in an interview before and it was her most memorable ever!

They asked if I had questions...I said do the nurses wear scrubs or clothes? They both replied clothes except on Fridays...I said well if we don't wear clothes on Fridays then I can't work on Fridays and you don't want me to either! We all laughed, it is business casual but jeans are allowed on Fridays.

The she asked what is the one thing you are better at than ANYONE else in nursing....my reply I am the orifice queen! Got something that needs stuck somewhere I'm your gal! Seriously it was a good thing she wasn't drinking anything or I'd have been soaked!

They said they would make a decision by Friday.......

Frank, I hope you hear from the doc soon. Jim is tired today but overall well. We're waiting for the neuro to call back to ask about something better than Baclofen. His legs are so tight today. We finally weened off the gabapentin and know it's not that since this was happening before. The pain isn't nerve related if that makes sense. I even gave him an extra baclofen to no avail.

Anyone here know of a better spasm med?

Renee, whoohoo! I bet they loved you!

good luck nae nae,
frank take it easy..

me...well..I went to work for 6am-2pm...was home by 10am...

6-7am I was doing a crew schedule to get it done before leaving...
7am-8am..is getting ready for opening store...and at 8am we open..the store is so quiet in the mornings...usually manager is alone till 930 or 10am...

well by 745, I got a burst of Dizziness, balance gone wild, and stumbling with mind thinking, I kept going the best I could...I realized finally my hands were shaking too....so I was standing in cooler before the open...thinking maybe feel better...and I felt awful enough to wonder if maybe I would pass out..and someone find me at 930am in cooler....

so I called my girl coming in at 930..lucky me a manager, and asked her to come ASAP...then called in a crew person to come in early to catch up with her....and do my lunch time shift....she got there I was lost...went to restroom..and then started vomitting....

Did a few more things on the puter...business stuff I have before trip...tried anyhow..then I just said I gotta go....so came home...and vomitted again...
slept 3 hours...woke to feeling my legs very numb like....

funny, I called dr office...just cause usual when I get cogfog/or dizzies I dont get vomitting..so wondered if should check if could be side effects of the meds...they said they would have to call back...

so when she called I was half asleep...telling her how I felt at work..and all ...who knows what I really said as I was out of it...

she said she will call my drs nurse for info ..and call me back...as my dr and her nurse were out for day...

so I get a call back..saying that the nurse doesnt think effect of prednisone...that there is a virus going around....I said, Ok well I think this is something to do with my long term sxs....as my legs now are really numblike...she told me if worse to go to ER.....

but virus.... not that I couldnt pick up a virus...but wow....

well up and about now a bit, but trying to not think of the to do list before trip...and do hubbys orders..stay up in our AC room resting....just getting ancy....
I am suppose to work tomorrow 7am-3pm....but I already started thinking of how to cover most of it..in case I am this way or worse....if feeling like now...I would cover my shift (the customer part) and still go in at some point..to do business stuff that I want to do before trip...as then I am off friday....till the 23rd.....

so keep me in your prayers, that I stop feeling dizzy crap before flights on Saturday...as I already take dramamine to fly...(air sick person here) but wouldnt want to travel in this condition.....ahhhhh

hugsss all, that is my day...glad I have older kids..as Mikayla is helping so much with the kids..and all....I am so blessed...

hugsss all, sarah
