A Whamo (my word) came in on Friday...along with visitors too ! This morning I attempted to get ready to visit the Doc and also visit with my Cousins.. I had called them the night before and pleaded with them to stop by.. I would be ok as I had everything prepared for our visit..
Cepting one thing ....Yep, the Doctor's visit...well it went like this...Could you picture sitting in the Doctor's office with him yelling and saying, "he's gonna call an ambulance"...I never expected this Doctor to react that way..but he was dead serious...and here I thought ...Well, I'm ok..what's the big deal ???
I had to promise him that I was going right over to have a Cat Scan and xray..in fact he made sure I didn't leave until that appointment was confirmed and I was going directly over....if not he was calling an ambulance...HOLY SMOKES...
So off I go... I mean I was not too happy but I knew it had to be done..The night before was really bad for me.. my leg was really gnawing at me..and I had to pop a half a pain pill...and I'm usually good about that but not this time..I mean this baby was pumping like my heart...and my face was kind of sore...so I gets to the Imaging place and next thing I know I call hubby to let him know I had to have this done..
Now mind you I left the house at 10am and here it is 1pm and my Cousins had arrived and Diane and Bob met up with them at the front gate.. I forgot to let them know hubby stayed home..oh well.. they met and Diane surely took good care of them.
Here I am still at the Imaging place and waiting to have tests done..YIKES... Cousins are now at my house and hubby and my cousin Tom are cooking the food up cause they only have a short window before they have to leave..They were heading out to meet up with family in Tallahassee...and had to be there by a certain time...Good Golly Ms Molly !!!
Finally I get taken in for the cat scan and xray..and I had to wait for Doctor to read the tests..then off I went headed home and finally after 60 years I meet my cousin Mary Ellen...Wow..time sure does fly :)
After they left I get a call from the Doc's office...Now hear this ....I have a closed fracture of the Orbit ...(going into space anyone) and I have a tare in the nasal passage...Oh is that all...DUH....Why not have some more tests done...OMG...and I must go on an antibiotic....and Eye Specialist will contact me and a E N T (ear, nose and throat) Doc will call too.. I must be evaluated..
All I want for Christmas is peace and quiet and no more injuries please......
As for my leg...bad shape and swelling is going down...my face is marked quite nicely ..colors are blending... I don't have double vision a little blur but I had that before I started..so maybe I'll luck out ??????
I think I'll write, "How to Enjoy your Christmas with the Medical Profession".
Did I tell you I have Adventures..Good, Bad, or Indifferent....but always with Humor....Cause that's all I have left..
Psst...Hubby is coming down with a cold...LUCKY ME !!!
Again, thank you Lord for letting me make another day !
God Bless
I was afraid of that! And the doc was right...any time you bonk your head that hard you should get it checked out! But I'm sure glad you got to finally meet with your cousin and I hope everything else heals up quickly! You'll have some fine Christmas pictures this year! Ah, fond memories! NOT!
ReplyDeleteA very merry Christmas to you and Robert!
