GOOD NEWS/BAD NEWS...
Good news:
- The chronic headache thing appears to be gone (as of 11/22/11)
- I am staying on plan throughout the Thanksgiving week-to-weekend (so far)
- Weight shows another decrease (will wait to report until Friday, 12/2-next weigh-in)
Bad news:
- Abscess has recurred (but in a different location)
- There may be more than one
- It appears to be more serious than the first one
- Temp was 102.2 and is still running 99-100.
- Cannot see doctor until Monday, 10:20AM
- I am very bitter because they did NOT send me home from the hospital with antibiotics and this now proves the infection wasn't gone and this could have been prevented had they given me a prescription to kill off the rest of it. They will DEFINITELY hear from me on this!
The tub soaks with mineral salts do help. The pain was pretty unbearable until I did this. I plan to take another soak today, tomorrow and Monday morning before my doctor appointment. What a pain in the A**, literally!
Hope your weekend is going well. Will check back soon. Now I'm off to see if any of my friends have new postings. It looks like most of them are taking the Thanksgiving week-to-weekend off, which is fine. I just hope they come back.
Cheers and have a great day! (carole in Boston, xO)
