and I'm not talking about salt.
Let me tell you about my week -- and yes I know it is only Tuesday.
I'm thinking about going to bed and not getting back up until Sunday just to be safe.
Monday started off fine.
We were out the door on time.
A roast was on in the slow cooker.
I found the cardiologist's office with a little confusion,
but not to bad.
Long story short -- my last ekg was abnormal.
I'm having an echocardigram (sp?) later this month,
a stress test and a sleep test.
Not great, but okay -- doctor seems logical, kind, etc.
We drive an hour and a half of the ride home.
Yeap, about 30 minutes from home and hubby calls and asks me to
stop by someone's house and pick something up.
I manage to flip my ankle (thank goodness its the opposite side)
Instant numbness allowed me to hobble back to the car.
Thank goodness!
It was all I could do to drive the car to hubby's office (a few minutes away).
Spent the evening in the ER...
severe sprain and possible hair line fracture.
Anyway, I'm obviously not driving to town today for the MRI results, but
hubby called the doctor's office.
The doctor was kind enough to call me and give me the results.
They don't believe it is cancer, but it is growing.
I'm supposed to see a hepatologist (sp?) and a gastroentologist (sp?).
Plus go back to the cardiologist for this.
His words, "If it is aggressively treated everything should be okay."
Needless to say, I'm in pain.
I'm miserable and I'm even a little worried.
However, with all that said....
I, Shara, do promise to let this be my only whine about my ankle.
Someday I will learn how to walk!
LOL
P.S. I am really thankful I bought the bread and went ahead and picked up groceries!
What a hard start to your week! Maybe you can get a little pampering out of this? Even if the medical issues are worrying, at least your doctors are on top of it. Hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you've had such a rough week, Shara. I'm will Lili, maybe you will get a little pampering out of this! That would be nice. Hope it heals quickly for you.

Sorry to hear of all your troubles, Shara. It certainly is true that when it rains it pours! Hope you're up and about soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you've had such a hard time this week. I'm joining with Belinda and Lili :) and will keep you in my prayers, my friend. All your work to keep you pantry so well stocked is certainly a good thing -- what an example to the rest of us. Take care, Shara!

How horrible for you! Having recently sprained my own ankle, I am very impressed that you managed to drive with it. I hope and pray that all goes with all your "ologists".
ReplyDeleteHi Shara, oh my dear, I am so sorry that this had to happen to you right now. You sure have had your share of pain and challenges this year. I will sure keep you in my prayers and hope that the pain will lessen for you very soon. It sounds like you have a team of doctors that have a good direction for your care. I know that must be comforting. I am so glad to hear that they believe they can rule-out the cancer. Don't be too hard on yourself my friend, we all have accidents like this, it could have happened to anyone. You are a very inspiring woman. You are such a trouper and are always trying to give the best to your family and those you love, even when you don't feel well. Just remember in your worse moments, that they will soon pass and a few months from now, all this will be like it never was. Our heavenly Father will make sure that you are never given more than can bear. With Love, Delisa
