Better and Better

Good news! Had another doctor appointment today, and he didn't charge me for it! AND he gave me/us (my mom actually paid) a 30% discount for paying the whole balance, for his visits while I was in the hospital, at one time, instead of making payments. $174 off!!! Woohoo!
Also, he thinks that the pneumonia is gone. What I'm dealing with now is either asthma or asthmatic bronchitis. I'm hoping for the ab, since that does go away eventually. Anyway, he gave me new and different drugs, and my sister approves of his choices. He even thinks I'll be feeling better by this Friday! :-o We'll see. I'm having trouble visualizing that. But I'd love for it to happen. At any rate, I'm feeling much encouraged today, despite my mom's semi-silent nagging to "just get better already!" (She doesn't say that in so many words, but it's definitely present as a looming cloud of psychic energy.) So yay me! :-D

Oh, and my blood pressure is back down to normal: 120/78. (I know, I know, borderline high. Whatever.) So now my mom can stop bugging me about asking for blood pressure meds. My doctor, my sister, and I all thought that it was just running high because I wasn't getting enough oxygen, and apparently we were right. :-)

Home again, home again

Hi Everyone,

Got out of the hospital last night. I think I'm a finally caught up on sleep, since that's about all I did today. It's just lovely to be home again! I did wake up briefly this afternoon, when a lovely bouquet of bright spring flowers arrived. Thank you all so much! They're just gorgeous. Thank you also for all the beacons. I got out of the hospital faster than the doctor, my mom, or my sister originally thought I would, so I know they helped. And I think they might also be the reason that I only had to have 2 IVs started in 2 days, and I only got stuck 4 times, and only 1 vein totally blew. (I've got really yucky veins, as far as stabbing them goes.)

Okay, it's probably time to head back to bed. But thanks again.
