It's a Mundane Kinda Day!!!

 

Page 149 of 366. Good Day my Lovies. I hope all is well with you on this kinda dreary Tuesday afternoon. Again, I am not complaining, because the clouds ease the heat and the barometric pressure isn't too high that I am sick from a headache nor bleeding from my nose nor ears... (so, in that sense, it is a good day for me :)

I had to get up entirely, way too early this morning because I had to have a video appointment with one of my specialist.... funny thing, is he's registered under a cardiologist centre, so that kinda screwed me up when I've been booking appts with him; as I had a cardiologist already ?!! I believed he was on my new cardio team TBH.

Anywho, it turns out that Dr B. (we're calling him that, since his name is pretty much a whole sentence on its own LOL)... specializes in internal medicine... namely my liver... IMAGINE THAT!!!

Well... that call was an interesting one, since he had NO clue that I was in the hospital for 9 days, which one of the reasons I ended up there was/is blood clots in my liver, among a hundred other new things I have to cope with. He asked why he wasn't informed and I said because I didn't actually know who he was, as I had another liver specialist before him and before COVID, BUT stopped seeing her because her ego was vastly larger than her knowledge on my condition. 

I am not being rude, it is the God's honest truth... she was very belligerent with me, AND my doctor (whom I adore) when my own family doctor gave me the results of my blood work before she did. In all honesty, who gives a crap who gave me the results, as long as someone was addressing the health issue at hand, no???

But this all has me wondering about something else now... why haven't I heard from my urologist? I mean, on my right kidney I have a couple cysts on the outside, one inside with a few stones. I should have heard from him by now too, as to what they are going to do about that situation before it escalates to another lengthy hospital stay; although I am not sure I want to be focusing on more than what we are coping with right now...

I do have a bit of good news to share today. The results from the samples of my procedure the other day have come back in today and I am happy and VERY grateful to say that cancer has NOT spread to my colon. I will take the win!!! They (all my different specialists) need to come together now and figure out how all of this happened to me, and how it all falls in together. I may know a lot of things, but I will never claim to know everything; and this is definitely NOT something I am even remotely familiar with, other than living through these ailments and pain everyday.

I know I have medical appointments coming out of my ass now, but it is what it is; and I will not complain because it seems some of the medical professionals in my life are finally being proactive. I've got thrombosis/hematology clinic at the end of the week. Next week I have them again, along with my own family doctor; and who knows what the following week holds, but I am sure it will require at least one trip to a medical facility.

On that note, let me end this here. I hope you all have a fantabulous day. Stay safe. Stay cool. Be well. Be blessed. But most of all, be loved!!!

It's a Hide Under the Covers Kinda Day

Page 14 of 365. Good Afternoon Lovies. I really, really hope your day is going better than mine!!! Sorry, woke up at the asscrack of dawn, as I had a doctor's appointment this morning.  Thankfully it was with my family doctor; appointments with him are fairly painless.  Today, however; things kinda went sideways.  I am usually in and out within 10 mins for these appts, but today? I was there for over 45 minutes. Of course, it didn't help that I was puking maroon blood in the office. I know, I don't share a lot of my medical nor really personal stuff on here, but just so you're aware, this has been happening daily since end of May/beginning of June last year. I am what they call an "anemic blood clotter" which I didn't think was possible, but apparently it runs on the paternal side of my family. Anyways, that was the main focus of my visit after that. My stomach medication is being switched AGAIN, this time I am being set up with an antibiotic (which is cra...

FFS I Matter Too!!!

Good evening lovies. I have been struggling with something that is very close to my heart. I truly do not know where to proceed next. I'm going to try and make a very long story as simple as I can... I was adopted at 5months of age, (well apprehended at 5 months, adopted at 5 years). There is something that adoptees yearn for all their lives... WHY?  I know for me there were many questions and on my 19th birthday it appeared I was going to get those answers when I met the woman who birthed me. Unfortunately, I was sorely mistaken!!! Years went by, and I allowed this woman to have control over certain things that were weighing heavily on my heart, She held the one piece of the puzzle that felt missing from my heart... who my biological father was?!! I, one day decided that I wasn't going to allow another person have that kind of control over me... EVER!!! I left the situation alone. I struggled deeply. I was literally at war with myself. on this topic. In a way, I felt guilty th...

Tis the Season.... Why I Am Proud of Local Tattoo Shop!!!

  Page 307 of 366. Good Afternoon Lovies. I am not sure how long this blurb is going to be; as it seems to be a topic I have been beating to death this past year. I know it is the time of the year where we switch from Halloween/Samhain into Thanksgiving (in the US) to Yule/Christmas season.  I hate pointing out this fact, but people seem to feel like Christmas time is the only time of the year that they should be charitable...  Is it out of guilt that you are donating, or is it because you genuinely feel you should be helping people??? I AM sort of calling you out because this is NOT the only time of the year that the homeless, or the downtrodden need help. I cannot stand that this is around the only time you will see non-stop commercials/ads or billboards that are asking for help with various charities; also the time we see commercials about driving under the influence. WHY IS THAT??? Driving under the influence is a year-long problem... I will not get into details about...
