PITA
So I still have the wound from the infection I had post op. I am frustrated because I wanted to go back to work this week 1/2 time (tried last week and just wasn't ready), but the VNA people will have to terminate svcs if I go back to work. And having them come out to do my wound isn't a big deal, my DH does it twice a day so I don't really need them for that. But they DO order my supplies I need for wound packing and as far as I know, the wound care center at PRH can't do that.
So now I am stuck. I am getting a little tired of sitting around and I've been out of work for over a month now...
I'm just really frustrated by the whole insurance crap and the hoops needed to jump through. Ugh!
My wound does seem to be healing though, it's getting shallower and narrower which is really good. Just not doing it fast enough!

Hi Jenn,
Aw, I feel so bad for you. I am very tired but so glad to be back at work. Plus, I was nearly out of hours so.... But listen, you're better off using the time and getting good and well because it does take it out of you. I am like a nap-deprived toddler by 3 PM and it actually hurts to wade through my evening chores until I can throw myself in the bed at 8. You're lucky to have a secure job and supportive co-workers. Take full advantage of it and everyone will be best served. Here's a tip: I've spent a good part of the last three days outfitting my office with all my needed WLS supplies (shaker bottles, measuring cups, TSP, TBSP, splenda, decaf teas, little milk bottles, Protein powders, SF syrups, baby foods, vitamins and meds galore. Last week I was carting everything back and forth and it was a zoo. Plus it takes up so much time to be constantly washing the shaker bottles and so on. Now I can buy soy milk for work, bring in my mushie lunch but the rest is already here for me. Much better. It was an extra expense but I think well worth it just to be able to get out of the dang kitchen before midnight. LOL. Thinking about you - Treading
