Feeling better
May. 10th, 2009 12:33 amOkay, the crud from hell appears to be abating. I'm still kind of tired and achy but no longer bedridden. I did go to the doctor and he said that I probably have some sort of virus and that I should rest and get lots of fluids and take Tylenol for the aches.
Friday morning was scary. I woke up somewhere around 5:15am because I had to go to the bathroom. I sat on the toilet for about half an hour because I couldn't move. I had diarrhea a couple of times and felt very dizzy and nauseated and had some really bad cramping in my lower abdomen and my extremities (arms from elbows down and legs from knees down) went numb and would not move correctly. If that series of symptoms hadn't passed, I was going to make someone drive me to the ER, but it did. I went back to bed and felt better.
Today I slept most of the day but I got up and made myself go grocery shopping. Ugh.
Tomorrow, we're supposed to go out for Mother's Day brunch with Cliff's Aunt Diane (Dixie's sister); I'm not particularly looking forward to that if for no other reason than that the ENTIRE FUCKING WORLD will be out to eat tomorrow.
My family is being sensible and doing Mother's Day/Bill's birthday (which is May 15) next weekend.
