The Bitch Thread

My lips were really chapped (almost bleeding) and I pulled out this lip balm and thought about it and THOUGHT that I hadn't used it during the other three strep infections and used it.

Two days later I had strep. On the weekend, of course.
But then, a whole bunch of kids in the class have it now - or at least are sick - and I don't think I gave it to them all, so maybe not. It's not like I don't wash my hands and everything, I don't see how so many could have got it. One, sure.

I'm still not about to use the lip balm again though.

It was funny - they did one of those field tests where if two lines appear within 5 minutes it means you have strep, and the second line was there after about 40 seconds, so I'm there croaking, "Hello? The second line is already there. Hello?" Not in an annoying way, but I thought sitting there looking at pink lines for 4 minutes was a little pointless and I wanted to get my prescription and leave.

And then I didn't take the next day off, which I should have, but I didn't have emergency plans yet (which I do now), so I was going to take the next day off and didn't...

I'm very tired. When's June?

Coming up soon. Hang in there

Have you tried airborne? It's this stuff that's supposedly works really good. It was developed by a teacher. http://www.911healthshop.com/airborne.html

I won't take it cause I take auto-immune suppresants. Taking something to enhance my immune system is kinda redundant, ya know? But I know several people who do (and one's a bus driver) and they say that it works great.

SOMEONE FORGOT TO CHANGE THE TIME THIS MORNING. THE LISTINGS ARE AN HOUR BEHIND.

 

[graceanne]

GRRR! So on Mondays my soon to be ex-brother in law drops my niece and nephew off at my house before he goes to work. Then my sister comes about 45 minutes later and gets them, and my daughter, and takes em all to work. So on Monday's I don't set the alarm, miss' kids always wake me. I got up at 8:45 (A has to be at school at 9), and called my sister. She was all "I told you yesterday that they weren't going to be there." NO SHE DID NOT! I was like 'whatever. Did you remember that you're taking me to my remicaid appt?" She said "I thought that was next week!"

(Last Friday I called her and said "Remember my appt on Monday!" HOW THE FUCKING HELL DOES THAT SOUND LIKE MY APPT IS NEXT MONDAY?)

So Miss couldn't take me to my appt cause she had to work. I have no problem with her not being able to take me, I have TON OF PROBLEMS with her waiting till this morning to let me know she couldn't. Luckily my sister in law could take me. So I had to run around like a chicken with my head cut off getting the babies ready. A was 15 minutes late for school. Then we came home I ran around getting read and cleaning up a bit before everyone showed up. (My mother and father in law watch the kids during my remicaid.)

Sorry you are having such a hard time, Gracie. I have 3 dogs and though they can be a pain at times (like tonight when two of them banged into my bad knee to get to supper), they give back more in terms of affection and trust.

Thanks. I have cats, I prefer them. They don't require as much attention and they're always ready for a snuggle.

You got me on the attention., but my dogs are always ready for a snuggle, usually as close to me or my wife as possible.

I feel really bad today. I started feeling bad during my daughter's aikido. I was trying to be good and write but I was in pain, stomach and back. Almost labor like pain and suddenly I couldn't take sitting in those folding chairs anymore. I went out to my car. Lay back the seat and tried to find a comfortable position. I wondered if this was like what passing a kidney stone felt like. I even put my feet on the dash of the car as if I were in the gyno chair but nothing felt like relief.

I'd felt bad all day taking three Advil earlier and now three Tylenol. I worried I'd taken too much or something because it felt like I was bleeding internally. When I got home, I hoped the wine would help. I went to the bathroom to find fresh red blood had come out of me but little else and I was so confused, I wasn't even sure which opening it came out of.

I didn't tie my husband up well nor was I able to come.

I have a busy day that I am hoping to make it through and I feel like crap. *sighs*

End of bitching. I have to run. *grr*

You're bleeding, but you're not sure where from? I'd go see a dr, hon.

Hey you,

If you are having abdominal pain with bleeding you need to go to the Dr or ER asap. It doesn't matter where the bleeding is from, you need to have it looked at. It can be very serious and even life threatening depending on the cause. GO!!!!

Don't make us come over there and drag you to the ER!

maybe she went...and that is why she hasnt responded?

 

[graceanne]

In her last post she said she had to run. I don't think she meant to the ER, but I could be wrong.

 

[raven2]

I hope so. It could be many things, but abdominal pain (esp w/ bleeding) in a female of childbearing years is a real emergency. They need to examined as soon as possible to make sure it isn't anything like an ectopic pregnancy which can be fatal.

That's kinda what I worrying about.

 

[FurryFury]

Okay, I'm back and I'm fine. I made it through my work day, now I'm in bed waiting for medication to kick in. *smiles*

Now, I only filled the toilet that ONE time with blood. The abdominal pains have stopped but not the back pain, it however has dulled.

The only way I could be pregnant is if it were in my tubes because of the IUD but I don't think that is the problem.

I think I know my own body pretty well. I don't think this is an emergency. I will only see the doctor if it persists too long or gets worse. The last time I went in because of bleeding they acted like it was no big deal. Have I mentioned I have no faith in doctors?

Thanks for your concern everyone but I'm sure I'll continue to be fine.

I hope you will feel better very soon but I would see a doctor however , better a false alarm than neglect something even potentially dangerous !
A big hug b.

I know you and everyone, are all right but I'm practically phobic.

The drug is good though. I'm feeling nice and spaced.
