6:00am

Today will probably be a boring day for you to read about.

I'm pretty much taking notes about how I am feeling.

5:30am comes too early!

I didn't sleep well last night.

I went to bed around 8:30 then got back up

around 10:30.  Fell back asleep around midnight.

1:00am I woke up coughing and gagging

from acid reflux.  Ran to the bathroom and got sick.

Then around 3:00am woke up to loud noise.

Cats knocked something over.

Oh yeah, nap time will come early today.

12:45pm

I slept from 7:30am to noon.

That wasn't a nap that was more like

catching up on the sleep I missed last night.

I still feel tired.

Tomorrow I have my GI doctor's appointment

for a follow up.

Don't know what good that's going to do when

I can't even see my own doctor who knows

what has been going on with me lately.

I have to see a nurse practitioner which

will be clueless.

I hope I don't have to go in there and

recap everything that's been going on.

Still no prescription refill from my doctor

or paperwork that was supposed to be sent since last

Wednesday.  I've been without my medicine

for over a week now.  I feel like doc is holding it

for ransom til I go to his office to be seen.

Then even when it does get sent in to our

prescription mail order company it

could take up to a week to get it.

Not to sound gross but to keep track of any progress

or downhill spirals,

my medicine when I was taking it kept my poo

somewhat normal for me.

Today, not so good.  You start to worry when you get diarrhea

because in my past it can result in dehydration, low potassium,

& low blood pressure resulting in a trip to the ER.

Getting a lot of stomach acid

resulting in acid reflux.  I have body aches all over,

lots of weird gurgling stomach noises I've never had before

along with my stomach not feeling so good

and I feel really really tired.
