Raw and uncut!


Be aware of what you are about to see it is not necessarily what you think you are about to see, or it very well might be, got that?
Below is my second or third dose of my 1000MG. of Solu Medrol IV infusion. Alongside of it is the one and only vial of old fashioned insulin for just in case, which has been used with my previous history, since the latter has three times before caused a diabetic reaction, and so that is that!


Below that is the installed IV by Nurse Peg from Matrix, nothing like her namesake my friend Mary’s and Joe’s and et all kids, eleven in all, Mom, who was also a nurse, and my second Mom who I did love, and my friend Mary is a nurse too…, this one though was  not a dog lover and so when Skipper licked her legs it made her not happy! My fault, should have mentioned we have a lover not a biter upfront, my bad, not really of course… Hubby took him out back to commune with his nature and then on a lead inside so that she could do her job, oh pooh! I prefer happy, dog loving nurses, don’t we all?


Again below is the cover-up for the public if I wish to leave our domain, and I hope that we will go with the Home Show still going on tomorrow too.

Right now I am rather pooped and spoke/wrote online in that FB group way too much today…with my BIG MOUTH and personal relatable experiences, as I have been known to do.
My eye has not healed yet, but I have two more days of infusions and I am hopeful, each infusion takes only about an hour.
So far, at this current writing my last glucose check was within the normal range and so we will check it tomorrow unless something happens that causes me to feel funky and need it checked earlier.
For a while there we had no idea for the distribution of insulin units, since this nurse had no information and last time my doctor installed it with the prescription info and so we called consult-a-nurse,who had no answers, except to go to emergency if I needed to and they could not prescribe and so we Google the diabetes.org, and they were closed for the weekend via their toll free number, and than Walmart where Hubby bought it and they too did not know, but suggested searching 'insulin dosing sliding scale', but there were too many variables…and my doctor is not available weekends  that is unless its an emergency, and I did not feel this was yet and I wanted to make sure it did not become one, and all I needed was the right dose info! At last I had a strange idea, Miss Mostly Clean Out Closet Lady, periodically, anyway. I said to Hubby let me look in that box up top if you would be kind enough to get it down and sure enough, on the very bottom of my Shared Solutions stuff was the print out, circa June  2011 with the correct dosing of the diabetes as per neuro instructions! WOW what a feeling!

So all is well in nearby to River City, as we are unincorporated, a pseudo town nearer the harbor…in many locations…on that note of a way high one, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?!
