Oh, well, I made it up and back in spite of all. What all? Two hours of sleep in the forty eight before, then the rest.
I had started the waterpills, but not potassium. With potassium out swelling still high even if comparably better, and bp predictably sky high, I was sent... escorted... to the emergency room... over my mild rebuffs. In went potassium, magnesium, bp stuff, and some others. An ekg and chest x-ray were administered. And I was there until after 14:00.
I... napped between visitors and procedures. Surprised I could wake without much fuss. Adrenaline, around strangers, is potent in me. I can't be more certain about when I was let out. Closer to, slightly before, or a bit after, 14:00? I don't know how long the drive home was. I was able to shop cat supplies but not groceries after.
When I returned home, I planned blogging and gaming, to come down. No dice. I was lucky to get things in from the car. I did feed and water furry and feathered friends, get purchases and travel gear in. Oh, and noted someone had stolen a quarter of the gas from my car at the V.A. parking garage.
At some point, before falling out of my chair, I made it to bed. It's a... strange morning. I can feel nothing, barely think, as foggy of mind as it is out doors. I'll... try to get going. Blood sugar is 143 fasting. Still trending lower, other than the anomaly of yesterday's sleepless reading.
Today? I... have no idea. Hopefully something.
Someone was... already precogniting my situation. Bon... mort? Vielleicht.
I'm no fan of ERs but, they do come in worthwhile at times, based on my own needs a couple of times and many more times for my sister.
ReplyDeleteHope you're getting back to "normal". Take care.
I agree. I prefer them for others, yet am greatful when necessary. I'm sort of getting better.
ReplyDeleteI learn all sorts of funny things there though. Like... it is difficult to get all of my lungs in a portable x-ray. *grins* Should have seen when I told them I can hold my breath for five minutes. Then that there was a time eight minutes was doable. Belief... when you are truthful, they really can tell. Working with Vets, they learn to discern quickly, deeply. But, then, there is their own lying eyes.
