Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Intake person for PT is coming out this evening, she said between 6:30 and 7. I won't be surprised if she decides to discharge me, I'm doing well enough.

Is this what you want? You can tell them your not ready. I've done it for Tom a couple xs already

ask her boss what's going on

I will. Not sure what she can tell me about "H" based on HIPPA laws, but when my other PT went in the hospital, I got updates from "H" because his sister was posting all about him on fb so he had no "expectation of privacy." But if "H" is not doing that, her boss can't tell me anything. So we'll see.

Yeah, I'm ready. What I need to do now is build up strength and stamina. I can do that by walking laps around the house until I can walk farther, up and down the road for example.

I'm feeling awful. Had Austin take me to the emergency walk in. BP went down while I was there. She asked all the right questions. Did an EKG. Saw something going on. She wanted to put a monitor on me but they won't have one until Tuesday. She went ahead and ordered an Echo ..of my heart.
I broght up something else that's been going on. Bubbles in my urine. So..blood work for that and electrolytes. I did a urine test too.
I just got a call from her. She asks..guess what? You have protein and a bit of blood in your urine. I told her that I had been diagnosed with interstitial cystitis years ago, dr said I may have blood in my urine often..she says ohh..then I told her that I have had many urine tests and never told they see blood..until now. Soo..we're treating me with an antibiotic. Yes, an infection in the body can cause low BP. She's having them ..culture it..I think she called it. I know that helps know what kind of antibiotics helps best and a few other things.
Good grief.

Long day here. Temps are nice and so far the rain has skirted around us. In all honesty, we could use a good downpour as it hasn't rained in about a month. So we went back to the woods and pulled out two loads of firewood from a tree that snapped in half during strong winds two months ago. Really strange. The tree was healthy, no defects. The wind just snapped it off about 10 feet above ground.

So @BigBlueHen53, you have Aztec blood in your veins? Cool. Hey, native blood is native blood. I read a meme on Pinterest once that said, never say you are just 1/2, or 1/4th native American. If you have one drop of native blood in your veins, you are native. Be proud of it.

Shoulder this morning. Sigh.Slept with my circulating ice water pump on it last night. Ice is one of the few things that does give me some relief. I'm still having pain when I use it. Frustrating because about a month ago I could do simple things, like put a roll of paper towels up on the holder and not have any problems but now I am. For sure I'm going to have to talk to somebody in the surgeons office before I see my PT late next week. Ain't no way I'm going in and picking up where I let off until this bursitis is under better control.

@grannyhatchet, you don't need to take any crap off of anybody yet alone a mouthy pet groomer. I wouldn't turn my animal over to one like that nor would I take it back there. Has to be other groomers around that would be thrilled to have you as a client.

Need to go out and water the birds. One of my little bantam hens is spending time in the sick pen. She's lame and not wanting to use one leg. She likes to jump straight up in the air to grab a treat out of my hand or climbs the chain link fence to grab a treat through the fence and must have come down wrong. I can't find any breaks, swellings or dislocations in it so I hope it's just a bad sprain.

That is about where I am right now. DH doesn't want me to continue as the strengthening exercises are causing me this bursitis. He says I can build up my strength by doing what we do around here like getting wood loaded into the tractor bucket like we did today. I'm not trying to handle any large wood but do fine with the small even medium stuff as long as I don't try to lift it.

@Cynthia12 Lordy girl, this ain't a contest, you don't have to win the wounded and weary competition. Did I make you smile? Hope so, sometimes when we don't feel good it's all we can muster the strength to do.

Feel better. At least you are getting to the bottom of what's going on with you to make you feel so miserable. You are dealing with lupus aren't you? You know you can't bee too careful with that condition. Feel better, okay? Prayers sent for your speedy recovery.

Oh, you do not, you young whippsnapper! You're probably the youngest one among us and I would just about bet money your joints don't scream at you when you stand up! Am I right?

You are on point!
There was a day that inflammation in my joints was normal, not anymore!

How was your day, Troyer?

I had a good day.

Who’da thunk!

Bummer to be dealing with bursitis when your healing was coming along so well. I know nothing about bursitis though, I'll have to look it up.
