Of late, I have had to be on "def-com" 3+ tummy alert, afraid of a return visit to the ER. I just haven't had good control regarding this last hospital stay's recovery. I also have had to put off visiting Mom, which adds to the stress and guilts. Dammmmit. I heard that Mom is "acting out" again. That is not good news. I had planned to visit with Chuck this week, but I felt really badly, and had to up my dosage of meds to stay home..and it worked this time [knock wood]. I get really really frustrated when I talk with Chuck, so dear Gordy will phone on my behalf today and ask him what has he done to help Mom in this latest behaviour, and /or what are his intentions to do with her medicine so that we can help her meet the requirements to come back home. My toes and fingers are crossed in hopes he has already done something...but, well, I won't hold my breath! Off to my appointment in Coupeville -- I'm going to try to drive it myself. I still have trouble with sleep, and am sooooo exhausted. My sleep study is almost here, it's the 9th of October. Dr Jak was not pleased with the medicine I have been prescribed, and his face spoke a thousand words when I mentioned FMS -- he's not a "believer". He will only check for apnea now because of my Rx. That truly does me a disservice. I'm not sure Apnea is my problem. Oh well. TBDALD [to be determined at a later date...] ##
