Dr Appt Disaster

Just a note to post an update.

This morning did not go well. The one morning I needed everyone to be up and in the car they all overslept, and colton spent the time trying to get them all in the car screaming at everyone that it wasn't his fault, no one woke him, he didn't eat, he didn't get meds, etc. I was about in hysterics myself knowing I was not taking colton with me in that condition. In the midst of this the doorbell rang and Christy was on the step to be my driver (Ceana had arranged with both of us noticing at very last minute). We stood trying to decide what best plan would be all the while colton continued to scream and dramatically throw himself across the couch. All the while the clock is ticking away, guaranteeing I would miss my first appt.
We ended up taking kels with us, leaving the boys until Christy could get back so Caiden could go to his class and getting down to Corvallis in time for my second appt. She dropped me off, I hugged my thanx, she got to the boys in time so they were not alone and I made it to my next appt.

Part of today appts was my injection. Orders pulled the 2nd one for now. Hopefully by isolating the one injection we will be able to track side effects better. I will be keeping my journal even more detailed than before.

Other appt was with the PA. She is recommending an alkaline diet for the next month to see if I can get my nausea more in check. Have been throw up sick, monster upset stomach since last week when we ate out a couple times. Nausea has been worse. She is hoping that chilling my diet will help with nausea and reflux which is hampering sleep. Hopefully by changing diet etc it will help all the other stuff. Going to do my best, hardest thing will be giving up choc. Good thing is maybe I will be able to lose weight vs keep gaining since starting treatment. Would really love to look nice by the time the wedding arrives.

Will just take one thing at a time. Give myself time to rest (so needed today) and just keep trying. Answers will come, even if it isn't right away. I am getting great care, and so many are willing to help. Those are huge blessings!
