So it seems since July I would talk about the pain and nausea around the , 12th 13th, 2nd or 3rd.
I don't even know what doctors to see. I see the ENT on the 20th
So wake-up with that nausea and pain. On a 24th. Hopefully crab rangoons leftovers and eating General Tso’s chicken for 2 days is not a trigger. Not sure how many times I drank melatonin sleepytime. The only sushi I had this month was the cali with eel, and then the soft shell crab
May was an 18th I think. But for many months it was a 2 and 3. 12 and 13 .
So tired of this feeling sick things
So late morning I tried 3 or 4 times to get up from the couch to attend the boys. Each time I sat for a few minutes (to transition/acclimate before trying to stand) then crashed/had to lay back down again. Could only say a few words to our roommate in passing. The last attempt to sit up I quickly realized it was highly likely I was going to lose consciousness. (And I was in and out all morning/into afternoon) I couldn't speak. I texted roommate to wake my husband because of chest pain and being near passing out.
He came up to me and it took all my strength to *whisper* a couple words to him. The rest of the time I couldn't verbally answer his concerns/questions. That's all I could muster. He and roommate got the boys changed and fed breakfast. Hubs got juice as a quick boost before liquid iv. Periodically bringing the straw to my mouth because I could barely move and had no grip strength. Made food and fed me. My entire left arm/hand was just totally weak I could barely move it. Checked my vitals and they were very low. I was cold to the touch. My body was crashing. After a long while of helping me eat and drink I started slowly improving. Im not sure how much time passed.
The boys ate, played, watched tv. While I laid there slowly becoming more coherent/stronger. Boys just went for wind down time in their rooms and hubs was able to transition me to sitting (and checked my vitals which went bonkers, yay POTS), standing, up the stairs, bathroom, then bed. I'm still slowly improving. But I definitely was scared. I cried on the couch. Both because of love and because I was a bit scared. I was able to use my right hand to sign a little while I was still not doing good. (Which now reinforces my desire to learn asl bcuz it is extremely helpful in that situation) and yeah.
That's my day so far.
