Test results on blood work back, etc

Okay,
So my doctor called me tonight and gave me my blood work results. I have a secondary internal infection apart from a staph infection in my nose and from the mono I already have. We don't know what the internal infection is so I'll have to get more blood cultures to figure that out.

I also have slightly high cholesterol. He said it's low enough that I should be able to maintain it with exercise and diet.

I get to double my acid reflux medication to see if that helps with my stomach pains and apply an ointment in my nose for that staph.

On Tuesday I go to see the neurologist to figure out why I had that temporary paralysis and why I'm so slow and fuzzy and headachey.

On the 26th I go to see the GI about my stomach. Sometime in between seeing the GI and now I need to get blood cultures done.

Frankly, I'm TIRED of all of this. I'm not going to go in and get them done unless I get sicker. Probably foolish, but right now I don't care. I'm way too tired and fatigued and worn out from everything to care right now. If it's bad enough then I figure I'd be in the hospital right now or will end up there. Either way, eh, oh well.

Another thing I'm tired about is having a few select people not take my issues seriously and brush them off. Yeah, that's annoying. Now I just figure oh well, who cares what they think. They're not compassionate or supportive so that's their problem, right?

Okay now back to my boring life of sitting on the couch and trying to squash out the loud and echoing sounds of my screaming children that echo loudly through my head all day long.

  1. Oh, poor Lisa! That does not sound fun. I hope you feel better soon. Just read lots of books or watch movies to make the time pass. :)
