Sunday 22 July Ramble
July 22, 2012 — HeadlessI’m free again!! Discharged myself this morning about 11am with some new scripts and a new drug plan for the next few days.
Was admitted as I once again fell apart with a migraine yesterday morning. Even 4 codeine tablets couldn’t deal to it at all, nor the migraine tablets I have too. Vomitting too. Vaguely remember going to Rolleston with Jacob and Nevil for Jacobs footy, then getting collected by Sue to take me to the Hospital. Use the green oncology card and get expressed into the A&E area and my own room again. Just as well as I have all the lights out as can’t stand them – to bright. Nurse buggers up taking blood and putting a lure line in – I bleed everywhere and now have 2 lovely bruises on either arm. Didn’t really care as head to blood sore to even register the pain in my arms. Finally get given some drugs starting with Panadol – yep nothing like top shelf hard ass drugs to get rid of a pain that barely lets you walk!! But did I tell you it was a bottle of Panadol via IV not a couple of tabs. Then eventually they hand out the high strength ones. No fairies with flippers on this time like I saw with the last lot of them I was given. See I don’t do any drugs above codeine really very well. They decide to incarcerate me overnight to keep an eye on me – disappointing news as I’m starting to feel better – no brilliant. Sleepless night to as the drugs I’m on keep you awake – so have managed about 2 hours dozing all last night. Mum visits me early to say Hi and see how I’m going. Thanks Mum.
Discharged to home, but still have a headache and feel sick still Manage to make it through the arvo without been sick, but not brilliant. Head still hurting but will monitor that. Not really feeling hungry either – good weight loss program though. Rose arrives back from her Lace weekend in Geraldine to collect Nevil, then they head back home to Renwick. Sue heads to Hoon Hay Road to do some more cleaning before we move back in on Wednesday.
Dinners coming up – not that I feel like it. Then I’ll finish the Blog, and rest up again. Going to try to shake this headache. Might have a sleeping tablet too based on last nights lack of sleep. Do M&D time – my style then bed time. Take care all.
Kia Kaha.

Take care!

So glad to hear you are out of hospital, and that from Wednesday you’ll be back in your own home again too – great news. That should give you all a boost.
Love & hugs to you all.
