Me, again

If it can happen to someone sick, it'll happen to me. Had to go back to doctor today because of serious and very intense pain with my ribs. I awoke Friday morning with a pain that only allevivated by lying on the floor and roll around. The Health Czar, my Mom, has kept me medicated all weekend with codeine. As soon as I would begin to hurt, she'd crush up pills, pu****er in them to dilute, and shove in mouth. Ick, but worked. Last night was unrelenting and so horrible she thought she was going to have to take me to the hospital. I talked her out of it but let's just say, I don't dig someone watching me sleep. Went to doctor today. Dayum if I hadn't ripped the cartiledge to my sternum and dislocated one rib. Ok, that hurt being put back in place. The x ray showed most of the gunk is gone, but what is left is so thick it isn't coming up. (I know, I'm sorry) almost $200 later, hopefully I'm on my way back to recovery. I needed to go to work, today, but couldn't. Tomorrow is a must. I just hope I can look decent. ugh

oh my....wow.....I am so so sorry...but so thankful that your mama was there to take care of you....WOW...and work can wait.....you need to heal!!!! I will add you to the prayer list..... So, how do they really push the ribs back....ouch!!!

Thank you, sweetie. I am hit aned miss right now on being able to live. Geez, I feel like someone took a sledge hammer to me. The back rib out of place; I've actually had this once before. Thank goodness my doctor's practice has 3 D.O.'s on staff. One of them makes two fists and puts them on top of each other under the area where the rib is dislocated. The way way huge male D.O. laid down on me with chest and pushed my shoulders down as well as basically falling on my chest. They did that twice before the rib popped back in. OMG. Well, it's more action that I'vve had in almost a year. My mom left narcotics for me to get through the night. She's got a cardiologist appt tomorrow in Tulsa to see if she's had any further damage or if she needs stents in her legs. This is why I didn't want to take time.

Dang girl! Ya want me to just come shoot ya? I know it ain't funny but jeesh if it weren't for bad luck? That rib thang don't even sound like fun. I bet it hurt like hell! Well I hope ya get well soon. Hugs and sloppy kisses, Sparky

Well I hope you get to feeling better!!
