It have been awhile since I mention my illness,to it surprise me last week and broke my spirit at same time. But I know God is all I need.It started with me getting nasty cold, which turn out be bronchitis with lil pneumonia! Im like serious on bronchitis, just went through it the month before.I couldn’t hardly move,so that was my notice to make my way to evil place! God Bless me with some good nurses and doctor while in ER!  I did have a long wait, which my poor body hated, and germs spread! You would think peep would cover mouth,but nope! As you all know, im finally home since MondAy afternoon! Lets just say,my body is in for a fight of my life again. I rather not go into detail. If I refuse to take my meds, im killing myself!But come on, all meds have bad sides of them! I almost went back to hospital Tuesday, I was in so much pain! Hurt move,talk, think, cry! God gave me strength to fight without the hospital! Im still in some pain, but not as bad as early in the week! Good weather, and I cant enjoy it:( I have update doctor appointment next week, plus to get recheck on labs and xray really? Labs understabdable, but umm u sent me home saying things look better! No smart comment at the moment! Turn out I needed antiobodies, which wasn’t mention to me before you discharge me! Thinking I need a new primary doctor! Im lil lazy to do the searching right now, but dont feed me bs and then have to eat your words later 🙂 All the prayers,comments touch my heart in so many ways. I cant have transfusions, to everything is cleared. I left hospital at 7.2! Another rough journey, im praying ill make it through once again. Makes you wonder how some people become doctors when you educationing them. I did have two big idiots as doctors.

thumbnailSCDToday wasn’t a good day! My pain has got worse since last post. I went to primary doctor, honestly didn’t do me no good! He treated me either kidney problems or either I got ulcer. I can’t sleep at night as it is. My sickle cell nurse told me if it get worse to go to hospital and get admitted! My primary wasn’t getting my sickle cell problem, I wasn’t worry about the problems he talking about! If I stress it kick my illness in worse 10 time worser! I can’t move or use both my arms to extent! My left side still bugging me. My second week of new term started today. So as you all know that been with me. This isn’t looking to good with stress. I have appointment with blood doctor tomorrow and I’m not even feeling him right now cause of all the pain I’m in. You can’t stick me! Nor check my blood pressure at this point in time. Now if they can get blood from my port that’s what’s up! But I ain’t having the abuse right now. To the next post. God Bless 🙂

Surgery Update Pt.3

Posted on by poeticjourney

Hey Everyone, I’m a few days late with the post, been trying finish term out. Sad that I have retake one of my classes, and I’m glad I have to do it. Because that class was so over my head.lol my doctor appointment went good. No damage was done from a few weeks ago, which I’m happy about 🙂 I did get approve for more physical therapy. It has been two months since my surgery, that was actually on Saturday on my dad birthday. Tuesday I was a little worry because I woke up with my hip hurting me, it was because of the weather. It was the first time since the surgery since I had pain like that. Im just glad everything is going good with my healing process,still having problems sleeping at night. I don’t go back to him to August, which is good in my book. Thank you all for all the prayers thru my hard times and good times.

Week Four since surgery and yesterday mark a month and recovery seem to be going lovely for me:) no more accidents! I’m been very careful! Taking it careful or one day at a time, I’m starting to hate that saying. I never realize the little things I take for granted to you can’t do on your own! Sighs. Physical therapy is going good, can you believe it I actually look forward to it! So by the time I get home I can crash! Lol I need some other ways to get calcium in me, I don’t drink milk! Right now I’m doing yogurt! I don’t want add more poison to my collection of pills if you was wondering what I call poison. Still working on bending my knee when I walk. Ima get it! School has become struggle for me right now! I never thought it could be possible. Thanks for all the prayers, likes, truly means a lot. Sending prayers out for each and everyone of you all. God Bless

Week three since of Monday just pass. Yay! As you all may know for the ones who read my late post last week, of my accident! Doesn’t look like I damage anything, which I’m very thankful of! I was very worry… thank you all for the prayers. I so don’t like this season or the next. I’m more concern with my sickle cell while recoverying. Having trouble doing squats. You never realize the lil things to you can’t do them anymore. I know its temporary thing for now. I’m pushing myself every week! And trust I crash out everytime I get home. Me and bed have such good relationship during the day then night.  We working on bending my knee while walking, I think in back of my mind I’m scared ima fall. I still be happy with X-ray in a month. I have truly learn lesson to not do much and even tho not crazy about walker its not the enemy, it can prevent harm while recoverying… God Blessed till next time

Physical Therapy /Weekend

Posted on by poeticjourney

I know I’m late with the post. I been trying recovering from Thursday! I seem to have trouble bending my knees since surgery. I don’t know if I’m scared. I just know when working the muscles its no joke, its going to take some while. Right now I’m in serious pain and worried cause I walk into stump root in the ground, yep the hip just had surgery on. I’m using my walker less and less when I’m home. I have went out shopping this weekend and brought it with me.Friday, I overdid it, so I crashed out soon as I got home. I’m hating how I have to depend on people to help with my socks, shoes. Not going to mention how many precautions I broke.

I’m praying for a smooth rest of the year with my health! The X-ray came out good, and showed everything going smoothly 🙂 God is Good!

Hello Everyone,

So thankful for all the prayers and comments truly touch my heart! I’m home, actually came home yesterday! It wasn’t as bad as I thought, my God knew I could handle it all! I read the comments but couldn’t respond and.still can’t!  Everyone saying I’m doing good on the walking! It maybe with walker for now! But to hear nurses say how good I am when other people are struggling that been using them longer then me. I had a good team working with me. I had a little rough time! Fever after surgery, they couldn’t find out where it was coming from. My blood count held its own before and after surgery! Then well it fell and came back up and did it all over again. I had a great group of nurses on my team as well! Some I felt probably in wrong career because she just forgot a lot of stuff! Lol Talk about that another time! Time for me to crash, hope.share more soon.God Bless
