Well, I was supposed to go in for my two week follow-up today, but didn't quite make it. While I was waiting for the bus to take me to Toronto, I started feeling sick and wobbled to the bus station bathroom. My wonderful husband was worried about me and followed me, which was a good thing because he caught me just before I hit the floor! When I regained consciousness two women helped me to the bathroom where I tossed my cookies and then had diarrhea. Oh, what fun! (Happily, I had some privacy for the fun stuff.) I got a ride to the hospital in an ambulance and spent the day in emerg. The doc told me that my white blood cell count was a bit high and my blood pressure was very low. I told her about my LIS and she checked me for infection - she didn't see any signs of infection there, so she thinks I might have caught a bug, or my blood pressure is too low, or I'm malnurished, or all of the above. Now I have to reschedule the follow-up for next week - we'll be driving to Toronto. That way if I puke, poop, and pass out, at least I won't miss my appointment!
I had a bit of a crappy day
hopefully I'll be able to report on a good follow-up next week.
