Angry Having a rough day: VENT

Jim's sick with another UTI, my mom just called to tell me the neuro thinks on top of all she has going on she may have Myasthenia Gravis.

Is it OK to say I hate UTI's and bladders? Jim and I are so tired of getting no answers. We both decided today that we are going out into the civilian world and getting a second opinion on his condition. Enough is enough.

Now my mom may have this thing called MG. I know we have a forum here and will definitely utilize it if her blood work comes back positive for it.

Nik's car broke down and he's riding without a strut and needs me to help move him out of the dorms. Oh, and Jim's doctor may admit him for 7-10 days for IV antibiotics. Ummm, hello, anyone heard of home health care? ARGHHH. Oh, yeah, he can have that as long as I come in to be trained on it and Jim gets a pic line. I guess my 13 years of drawing blood, putting in IV's and flushing pic lines wasn't training enough.

Thanks for listening.

Anyone else need to vent about something? Feel free to go at it!

No, that's okay, you win.
You must be just ready to tear your hair out. Cyber-hug to you.

Can't top that one, Sandy. Sheesh, when is enough enough? Try to concentrate on getting through each day and don't worry about the rest. Keep us posted on Jim's progress.

Wow, all so overwhelming. I'm sorry to hear about the worries with your mother. That must be so stressful. And then the yucky UTI and a possible hospital stay and pic line doesn't help either. I hope tomorrow is a better day.

I'm so sorry. Vent away! Hugs, Jules

P.S. I hate bladders also.
