The Headache decided that it needed to act up tonight. The Headache itself is not so bad but my eye is not working so well, and the nausea is non-stop even with medication. I am not thinking so well either - am so forgetful I have forgotten to remember what I forgot today....I think...I may be misremembering.
Went to the doc today, told that the antibiotic I am taking is fine but I should take a few more days of it. Since I don't have proper sensation to know when I have a UTI (from radiation damage) my very nice PCP decided to leave a standing order at the local clinic so I can go and give a urine sample to know when and if I have an infection. I appreciate that because it will save me copays when I really don't have an infection going on.
He gave me lasix, a diuretic, for the puffy problem., just a few days worth. I am afraid to fly with such puffy feet and ankles because my feet and legs swell when flying anyway - I would have such big feet I wouldn't be able to sidle down the aisle in the airplane. Add me flinging BLING the cane around and hitting fellow passengers and I can see me being featured on the national news for causing a disturbance. Hoping that the feet will be in better shape by next week.
Starting some of the vitamin/mineral supplementation today. Vitamin B-12 deficiency can go along with malabsorption issues like I have so I'm glad I'm starting this up again. Many of the symptoms for Vitamin B-12 deficiency overlap with hypothyroidism and general anemia. I doubt if I am major league deificient but I might be just a wee bit under vitaminized.
