My leukemia's back.

Rachel, can they give you dome glycerin for the dry mouth of the thirst part?

Thirst is an awful thing.

I hope sugar monkey feels better real quick!

 

[Blooie]

I wonder about Biotene spray too. I use that for extremely dry mouth because of my meds.

Long-distance mother love is hard, but it'll have to do for now. Praying that both of you start feeling better soon.

Between absurdly hard rains for this time of year, and a couple of minor icing episodes, most of my daffodils wound up kissing the ground this year. These perky little guys are sturdily holding up their heads, though:


Of course, I had to lie flat on the ground to get the picture, but hey, at least it's not muddy today.

Rachel. So sorry you're not feeling well. Praying that they find the cause, if there is even a cause for your fever. Praying that it quickly passes. Also for your family at home, that your son gets well quickly, and that none of your other guys catch it.

Good morning Rachel, hope you had a good night's rest. I brought you a pretty sunrise to get your day started right!

 

[sourland]

Good morning, Rachel - I'll be away for a day or so - try to behave, and feel better too.

Sugar Monkey is doing better. Still having some abd pain, but no more vomiting or fever.

Well, we know why I'm feeling crummy also--all my blood cultures are postive for a gram + cocci. bacteria in the bloodstream kinda tends to take the wind from your sails

They doubled up on the antibiotics and it will be a full 2 week course.

I tried the Bioeten spray, they have a lemon-lime flavor. That stuff burned the everlovin snot out of my mouth

I'm not kidding, it hurt so much. Not I'm on a swish and spit type, very similar. It still burns, but since I can use a toothette swab or my finger I can target it better.

Not sure if it's med related, infection related or what, but I've been jerking awake with falling dreams quite a bit lately. This am, I was sleeping in a comfortable position (finally!!) and had a dream I was going to sit on the toilet at home. Passed the point where I should have touched down and nothing. The thought went through my mind one of my guys left the seat up again....down a little further and I'm falling on my butt thinking....how on earth did they move the toilet? Not the best of ways to wake up...and my guys are going to be in so much trouble!

Poor thing! I hate that ''whoops I am going for a swim'' feeling.
That put a little smile on my face though. please don't think I am evil.
You just wrote the experience well.

Once when I was having vertigo I spent all night dreaming that I was on a roller coaster.
I do not roller coast.
Could you be having some inner ear involvement from the antibiotics?

I hope the infection is controlled soon!

Opioids do odd things to brain levels of seatoinin--caused odd dreams.

My Rachel being released to outpatient on Friday!
