Well, the meds to block the pain were working...now the problem.
I was sitting in my chair, watching tv, my legs and arms started getting real heavy and everything started to go black, my heart rate went up, got really sick to my stomach, a bit of blurry vision! STOPPED TAKING THAT DRUG IN A HURRY!! It was not fun...a bit scary.
So it's back to having to deal with the pain. When I called doc parkman, he's out of town until 6/28, and his PA wasn't at her desk. No help there so I just quite taking them. Having a few withdrawal symptoms but nothing as bad as being on the pills themselves. Dizziness, nausea, headache, diarhhea...nothing I don't deal with anyway.
Lost 3 pounds in the last two weeks so I'm not happy about that. I wanna maintain so I can get this silly feeding tube out and maybe reduce some of the pain. I'm pretty sure that it's causing some of the pain because when you put any pressure on it, the pain increases.
Oh, well, just one more day in this wonderful world of gp.
On a more pleasant note...hope everyone has an enjoyable fourth of July!! Watch the lousy food intake and tell the naysayers to bugger off! You know what's best for your system.
