Awoke at 1:33 A.M. due to that nasty headache again, put the
cervical collar on, and it worked a bit but only when sitting upright. Drank the Java and
it appeared to be a helper. At 5:30 A.M. I tried again to sleep in the bed, but
no, my head would not cooperate!
Up once more and so I stayed up until 11:00 A.M. and tried
for a nap, yep tried for about fifteen minutes and no, my head hurt too much so up
again for the rest of the day!
Talked to the nurse with my insurance she felt that I should be seen
by the ER; I told her that I have the Millennium Group, Hubby’s and my medical docs
and they run a seven days' a week walk in clinic from 7:00 A.M. to 7 P.M.,
surprise they don’t call themselves seven, seven and seven, ha!
PA, physician's assistant, saw me and ruled out a stroke, but wanted to
give me a prescription for Percocet, I said no thanks, doesn’t work for me. Ashley
the PA asked than what does?
I said Lamaze or meditation, she smiled. She and Hubby both
said that if I needed Tylenol to take it, well I said that is like taking water
for me. She said I should wear my cervical collar until it feels better and I
told her my concerns of weakening my neck muscles and she said it wouldn’t
happen so fast. I am to call my neuro on Monday if no better. A stroke was
ruled out, but if I did show signs to get right away to the ER, no ifs, ands or
buts…
So I agreed and even put the cervical collar on ceremoniously
in her office.
The Velcro let go when I was getting into the car and Hubby
thought I was taking it off again and I said what had happened, and he said to keep
it on. And so here I sit with this DAMN THING ON and if it lets me sleep
tonight I will be very, very happy!
That’s all!
Good night to all and blessings all around the bend,
whatever …
Be square or here or there or whenever…NOW! TEE HEE!
Love ya all!
Love ya all!
