Wanderings

Because my mind has wandered a bit in the last few weeks...

Just an update or two.

School starts soon. First day is the 23rd. I've read about 1/10th of the assigned reading. Not feeling so hot about that. But I've been kinda working double-time to try and get extra readings crunched in these next two weeks. What can I say, I'd been kinda preoccupied before that.

Had my surgery on Friday, and it went well, I think. They found a tumor the size of a kiwi fruit growing inside the uterine cavity. They were able to remove part of it. I go back at the end of the month for a follow-up. We'll see how that goes. I'm starting to feel better... and by better, I mean, I can stay awake for a full day now. Still feel like my heart is racing and I'm out of breath sometimes, but that should subside as my Hgb rises. I already feel a hundred times better than before.

While lying around so much, I've watched more tv than ever. I'm officially addicted to the Food Network, btw. I loved it before, now I'm addicted to it. My new favorite commercial is the Geico one ... with Little Richard. Geico has the BESTEST marketing ad execs out there today.


You really can't watch that and not lift the corners of you mouth at least a little bit!! :)

I hate my uterus

I told Kace like a week ago that I thought my uterus was angry at me. Now I decided that it hates me. Fine. I hate it back.

Went to the GYN yesterday because I've been bleeding since the 11th. Yes the 11th. I lost track of how many days that is... but it's a damn long time. I'll spare you the disgusting details of all the problems I've been having.

I had my hemoglobin checked while I was there. It was 9.3. No wonder I've been feeling so lethargic lately. So, yes, I'm officially anemic now. I'm on iron pills for the time being. (I'm hoping this will all clear up soon enough). The NP wouldn't let me work last night because of my Hgb. Probably a good thing...

Things are still a mystery, and nobody liked what they saw on my ultrasound yesterday, so I had another appt today: it was a pre-op consult. Sucky.

That's all. If you excuse me, I need to take a nap. I'm due in at work tonight.
