Another life Rollercoaster ride.
First I hope whoever is reading this is safe, warm, healthy, and loved.
That being said. I'm having health issues. I've discovered this after a visit to Urgent Care and the ER.
Two antibiotics is soppose to help rid me of an infection in an important part of my body. Then again which parts aren't essential?
When the ER doctor told me what he was prescribing I told him I can't take that medicine. It makes me sick.
His reply was this is one of the best medicines for infections like this.
I said it again. I won't take that medicine. It made me sick when I took it another time. I couldnt taste or smell anything and I didn't have the urge to eat at all. Of course, I knew I had to in order to live. Yet I couldn't.
Then he replied, This is serious! You could die from this if you don't!
Well that was rather disturbing. I wasn't making light of it even though I really didn't know much about this problem. I just know the agonising pain I was having all day long off and on. I swear it felt worse than childbirth and random and seemed to be instantly aggravated by movement and anything I drank too.
I learned through internet reading and researching the details and how the body functions and how things can progress one way or another. I learned things I'd never even thought about. It made me think of how little we might know about our own body's functioning.
I don't know about your parents but nobody told me certain things that might be important to my well-being. But I don't blame anyone that raised me because more than likely thier parents didn't know it or shared that information.
When we are young/er we are quite resilient and seem invincible, yet the clock keeps on ticking and we don't think about how that things can go wrong whether it's sooner or later.
It's kind of sad that possibly by the time you know about important things that can allow for a long healthy and happy lifetime, your time is up.
Sorry. I know that probably sounds like a downer, but it's just how I'm feeling right now. I am caregiver for my son so it's not just about me. I need to stay healthy in order to be there for him.
Should this require surgery after I've used up my medicine, I will think carefully as to my choice. Still, those thoughts of suddenly not being here for him is haunting me even more.
I will figure out what to do. It's not going to just go away on its own.
