Day 3, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Posted on 31 Mar 2016 by poeticjourney

Hey World,

As you all know if you read my other post, that I’m in hospital. My counts are still dropping and my right hand all the way up is swollen. I got x rays yesterday everything came back normal, nothing broke. When I was younger I use have problems with my arms and hands swellen due to my sickle cell. Thank for all the comments and prayers, truly means a lot to me. I’m not much with long post, but did want check in and let you all know how I was doing. If my counts don’t drop no more I could go home. But doc is holding off transfusion. Which I’m happy about, haven’t had transfusion dis year. God is truly good all the time. Before I end dis post, I got heartbreaking news from my bestie, her cancer has return and now it’s attacking her liver. I actually enjoyed face time with her earlier today, just hear how she doing.

Another wonderful day to be alive. Last night was rough due to the weather, not much damage my way. I can’t say the same for my neighboring states in the south. Some lost love ones and some lost everything they have. I’m sitting at doctor office waiting to get labs done, so not feeling my best. Let see what my counts tell me. I like coming see him, I get hear how everything looks. Since im having problems with my shoulder, im not letting them touch my arm to draw labs from. Thankful i have port and itll be first time for them. YIKES! Im working on stressing less over stuff in my life I have no control over. I’m a work in progress. Just left the doctor office, things didnt go as plan with my port it would give the lovely lady back blood. So I had to suck it up and well you know the rest. My counts holding its own, not its best, but not its worse. I dont belive he did retic count. Hopefully my counts can hold to i can see my primary doctor next week. Yes, working on looking for a new one. Thats a post for another time. With all the meds im on, trying break it down see what im allergic to exactly;(. I pray all is well with each and everyone of you all. God Bless

Welcome to my world, I know it bn awhile since I wrote or had the courage to type. I have bn going thru a lot with my illness and dealing with idiot doctors I’m glad it’s finally finna be some warm weather we’re I’m at. I’m having more trouble with my shoulder so I have voice or either wait to I’m feeling upto typing. I also bn thinking what to do about my blog since I have bn abandoning it lately. I supposed I could do a post just talking to you all once a week about my week about what’s going on with me on my side of the world. I pray everyone had a good valentines day with there loves. I don’t do valentines, I see that as a every day thing, not just one time thing. But hey that’s just me. As I mention early in post about idiot doctors, seem to be having trouble when I go to er . I have do farther off, and that’s foolishness to me. Last weekend I suffer to Tuesday. Honestly I didn’t have the strength to temp move and be bother with people. I tend to have attitude when I’m hurting. Some say mean as a snake. I was glad know my counts went up a little after starting my meds I hate. I had went see sickle cell doctor back in December and they up my hydrea that I help, supposed help less my crisis but also makes me throw up and not want to drink water. I have to drink water, that’s a must for me. I was throwing up blood and I had stop it and go back to the other one till I see doc next week. Ill end post till Wednesday, hope all is well with each and everyone of you all. God Bless
