I haven't been here for a few days (not even certain I am now with Comcast being so frustrating.)
Wednesday started well, so well that I decided to put up some new racks and hooks in our bathroom, which has been repainted. After two hooks and 1/4 of a rack, I cleverly realized I was aggravating my fractured rib, with resulting pain. Since I aggravate my right side when I brush my teeth, you might suggest that using a hammer and screwdriver would be a bit more severe - you would be right. So now we have two new hooks and the beginning of a towel rack which may never get done.
Thursday was a bust, unless, as one of my daughters would say, being on vicodin is good. I don't handle fussy very well.
Today, Friday, much better. The blood test this afternoon revealed no problems, the many pills are not having a negative effect on readings. Further, my oxygen level according to the nurse who tested it, is excellent, better than hers she said. Oxygen has been some concern because the fractured rib is near a lung - no worries.
Tomorrow morning I take my weekly steroid fix, which last Saturday had me driving a gold cart around Meridian Hills, which will not recur since Mary Ann and Karen will be monitoring my activity, as they do frequently.
My immediate goal is to eliminate the rib pain so I can deal with MM. Next week, near the end of the current pill regimen, we will visit with Dr. Milton - hope to get an idea of where we are and where we are going.
