First, before I forget - Happy birthday,
shiv5468!
I spent most of yesterday in bed or on the lying on the couch watching a movie with Captain. Totally wiped out yesterday and I'm still pretty tired today. Not just exhausted don't want to move tired, but actual yawning want to sleep tired.
This annoys me.
Anywho, we had to purchase a blood pressure monitor cuff thing because I'm under doctor's orders to check that twice a day (also blood sugar four times a day) AND I saw a nurse on Monday who changed my meds, then ran into a doctor on Tuesday who dragged me into her office and changed them AGAIN so it's been a fun week of getting used to meds again.
I'm back on metformin (had been taken off and switched to something else, then taken off the something else and told to not take anything for the diabetes on Monday and then told that was stupid on Tuesday so put back on metformin), and also back on my bi-polar meds because new doc was pretty much let's not have an episode and potentially maim someone, kay?
So ... I like her. As a matter of fact, I have an actual appointment with her in two weeks rather than just Tuesday's impromptu twenty minute look over my files and talky time.
Also managed to get my Woman's Wellness exam taken care of on Monday, and poor Captain had to sit through the entire thing in the exam room with me because we needed him around for something after and I was all "oh no, it's totally fine, he can be in here, I don't mind" and he was all "umm ... do I have to?" and I was all "Yes, yes you do. Because I said so."
So that's my week so far - girly exams and new meds (twice) and lots of sleeping and tomorrow I have to turn in some specimen things and get more blood work so yay for that. /sarcasm
