Cook,,, that is. Well, not much, just baked 4 of those chicken tosquitas,,, 11 minutes, and it's STILL tooo hot to use my toaster oven! My weatherbug thingy is showing 102 and my new portable AC just won't cool down below 84.
I looked for days at those portable ACs, and went ahead and got a 10000 btu, but,,, should have gotten a bigger one, even tho the info said it would cool the area I needed. Of course, this is Texas hot.
Now, don't get excited, but I went to bed the 2nd, started shaking, teeth chattering,,, hard chills. Couldn't get em to stop, ended up calling the ambulance to go to the ER. Turns out, had a urinal track infection, 103 temp.,,, and that had put my heart into A-Fib. They finally decided to send me to Round Rock to monitor the heart while they treated the infection. I was there 3 or 4 days, MISSED OUR FISH FRY ON THE 4TH! And actually, what was done could have been done here, because nothing was changed until I went to see my doc here last Tues. She upped one of my meds for the A-Fib, so we'll see if it works. I'm doing fine. The only time it races is when I first get up. Takes about 20 minutes to quit. I keep having those and don't know why, nobody else does either. I'm seeing the urologist in a week,,, see what he says. I rode in an ambulance to get there, and it was like riding in a wagon bed.... horrible.
My son came up to the ER and waited with me,,, was horrified at my readings.. 158 pulse, bp like 258/156 or something like that. I think the med is gonna work. If meds won't then a pace maker is the future.
Seeing that hip doc next wed.... wonder if he'll help me with all this other going on....
OOOO MMM GGGG... seeing a commercial about shingles,,,had em,, horrible thing. GET the VACCINATION!!!
Hope you're well, DD,,, and hope BB is ok,, I'm getting there..
Yall tc, and
HAGD
It seems the older we get the more crap we get. Hope your feeling better soon
ReplyDeleteIm taking so many darn pills, i have to use one of those weekly dividers, divided into 3 slots a day. HATE it.\
DeleteThx for your symphony.
I am well and doing fine. Thanks for asking. Hope you get yourself back to the old you real soon.
ReplyDeleteIm sooo glad you're well. Im feeling so much better now, since the doc upped that one med. No more a-fib, and pulse doing great.
DeleteUhhhh,,, hows the swamp doing? lol,,,, had to ask.
I have no idea why I'm suddenly getting urinary tract infections too! and they HURT horribly. Didn't you feel pain before the chills hit? I also have Afib, and with a resting pulse of 120, when it gets erratic I get SO exhausted. I'm glad you had good hospitals. Down here they would have sent you home with a sinus infection for a diagnosis.
ReplyDeleteI have NO symptoms,,, cant tell im getting them. They upped one of my meds and its keeping bp, pulse down wonderfully. Metropolol. Put me on 100mg.
DeleteI have always admired that about you...you don't mess with your health and call an ambulance right away.
ReplyDeleteSorry about being in the hospital for 3 days but at least you found out what was wrong and they were able to bring down your blood pressure. Those were seriously high numbers and you could of had a stroke or heart attack.
Good luck with your other appointments and try posting more often. Remember us bloggers are a little family and though we may not personally know each other, we care!
TY MsB...I just dont have anything but the same ol, same ol, stuff to post. I do try to put something on some else's blog tho, so others can see im not dead yet.... lol.
