It was a long day scheduled for appts. I had a CT scan of my abdomen to see if the disease had spread. I don't do so well with CT scans. I vomit from the iodine and now this time I had to drink that Barium crap. Oh, it's making me gag just thinking about it! Ugh!!! After that, I had to see Dr. D to assess the wounds from surgery. Then spoke to the social worker and then had a dentist appointment. I started my day at 8 am at NW and it is now 2:30pm. I had maybe a sip of water and a few bites of a sandwich. I was so tired I went to bed. I slept from 4 pm to 7 am the next day! Not a good idea. I woke up, went to the bathroom, walked out. The next thing I remember is waking up on my dining room floor with blood in my hands. I blacked out, fell and busted my chin on the hardwood floors. I actually dented a woodplank and cracked it. I was lying there in my back and luckily Amy was home. I called for her and she came to the rescue. Apparently I had a 5 minute conversation with her and I did not remember any of it. Ha. I had my lung function test and echo scheduled that day but canceled the lung test and made it to the echo for that afternoon. On my way to the hospital, I stopped at Dr. B's office to get my stitches. She ordered at CT scan of my head because I had signs of a concussion. She also wanted to make sure I didn't fracture anything. I got to Northwestern, had the CT of my head (no bleeder and no fractures-I'm so lucky!) and then had my echo. Minos was flirting with the echo technician...he would! I then went home and got ready for my next test for the next day. The dreaded bone marrow biopsy! AHHHHH!
