Update

thumbnailSCDHey World,

 

Its been awhile since I been able to post and just enjoy blogging.  So since September come in, I have been loving the fact its my month to bring awareness about sickle cell. I’m on Facebook a lot and in many groups dealing with my illness. Seems so many our the warriors have died. I had got to the point of why am I fighting when we get treated so poorly when we go to er. That be another post for another time. I hope to share some stuff through the month about some of the things  and so many other go through.  My doctor appoint on Tuesday went very well, my blood count is highest it ever been. I haven’t been transfuse since early June. Don’t even get me started on that hospital stay and how many times it took before they took me serious about my pain. Even though counts r good, can’t say the same about my headaches, they have got worse. Lets just say I’m taking more meds to get them in check. I’m trying to stay on top of them and not get ct scan. It could mean many things. Another post later down the road. I had eye appoint  last month, it went so so. they have to stay on top of them. I’m on eye drops  and have to wear glasses. I’m nearsighted big time Sorry to make the post so long, but its been awhile since I posted and wanted to do mini update.

 

 

I’m hoping to visit many blogs over the weekend.

Day 1-2, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Good Evening, another Bless day. As I mention in last post, I ended up coming to er, and yep stuck here. Feeling much better then I was. I’m praying for a test to come back with good news, so I can stay off my steroids. Its bad enough I have to take meds every day. Must admit, I have had some good nurses. Can’t say nothing negative about them. Makes me wonder if they got there act together since I haven’t been here in awhile. I must admit I prefer to have male nurses. They so sweet, and cute as well. I’m hoping to make did short visit. Got me on oxygen, fluids, and of course pain meds. Guess what I saw my doctor. Hmm is all I can say. Got some x-rays done to see what’s going on. I have been in pain for three weeks, praying and hoping it go away on its own. Soon as I get information , I’ll share with you, when I get time and feeling strong enough to share. Thank you for the prayers, comments, as well as like, truly means a lot. God bless

Good Morning, Welcome to my world, I know its been awhile. I have been in pain for over two weeks. I have made time to go ER, lets just say one didnt go so well. I got bless with rude nurse who threaten me and told lies. I thought to myself im not in mood for stupidity when im sick. Yes, did check her once, she got mad slam door. She thought calling my mom make her look better, if you all wonder my age I just said goodbye to my twentys, and dont live with my parents. If you follow me on twitter, you may think im lying about my age. Oh well thats on you. Anyways she been reported, if you dont love your job for whatever reason, get a new one. My other visit was okay, but since hemoglobin was ib 7″s and retic wasn’t to high, rhey gave me fluids, meds. Hmm both times oh and not so favorite oxygen. Im at the point im just tired.  Sighs…. I do have doctor appointment tomorrow, trying hold out. Waiting see blood doctor next week.

Hello and Welcome to my world, I know its been awhile since I did update on everything that’s going on with me when it comes to my illness. I was in hospital last week only for a few days. I don’t know what’s going on with me, I done seen inside hospital to last me 100 years. I have been in bed all day, due to me not feeling my best. I’m actually debating going to er as of right now. My left side of my bed feels swollen and I can’t lay on that side. I been tossing and turning, feels like I have a fever. But I don’t, have ac and fan going . Do bare with me, I do read all comments, just haven’t had the time to respond to them all. Thank you for prayers, comments, hugs.. God Bless me with a lovely blogging family….

Hey and Welcome to my world! I been here since Saturday night. I did get a chance to party with my lil lady. A few pictures was taking, but since I wasn’t at my best. I just wanted my love to enjoy herself. I did have a check up a week ago, it was just the results from labs and x ray! My count had drop and came back up on its own, so happy about it 🙂 One more day here and if everything still good, I’m going home on my b-day! I have some good nurses, doctors on my team. I’m counting down the day I wont have take meds every day. My chest x ray came back good, labs in a way they came back good, but still on the evil steroids.

thumbnailSCDHello and Welcome to my World. I done had two different check ups since I been home. I have one more towards the end of the month. I’m still working on changing primary doctors. I can’t say I’m surprise that the hospital I been going to don’t do business with some doctors here. I must say I met a lot of nurses that work with the hospital I used to go to and know my doctor very well. Like I told him since you wouldn’t admit me the first time, I had to go to another hospital. I refuse to be in pain, and you suppose to be my primary doctor. I’m still waiting  on my labs from last week and to see how my chest x-ray looks. Umm I did all this last Thursday, and still haven’t heard crap. I haven’t had my steroids since I got out of hospital last week. You would think he would let me know something. I done call office a few times. I saw my blood doctor today, and got good report. My blood count is good, still holding its on. I couldn’t be more happy. I’m dealing with headaches once again, seems like there getting worse every since I got sick last time. I’m praying I don’t see inside hospital for nothing, but I know that’s not going to happen. I went last week to get xray and stuck. I believe nurses hate to see me coming. I give them one chance to stick me, hello I have port, put it to use. But the last two different people from both check ups, did good.

Hey  and Welcome to my World! Im in hospital once again, idk whats going on with me! My fight is getting the best of me! So many times I thought to give up! I know God has a purpose for me! I woke up Friday with terrible chest and back pain. I couldn’t hardly talk are breathe. My main concern was I hope im not having heart attack. I did get scare with my port, and I was praying it was okay. The nurse had put the tape to tightly on my port! It was on fire, for the one’s that know im hard person to stick! They had unhook me from fluids, and thought about accessing it again. Good news, they didnt. Even better news its feeling much better 🙂 Blood Count is holding its on, which is extremely good! I don’t plan on receiving blood! The pain is getting much better , which is good since im tired of hospitals! Bless with good nurses and doctors once again. Until next time! I pray all is well with each and everyone of you all 🙂
