|
|
HI All,
Getting another back shot tomorrow where they put me to sleep to do it. I'm a little more nervous because I had to hire a "care-giver" because my friend couldn't go. A stranger seems different, but they won't do it unless I have someone with me.
Kinda ruins the 1 year Anniversary on Tuesday, but I'll be swinging by the week-end, I hope!! Mega-Celebration!! And actually, I don't think anything can ruin a 1 year Quit celebration! _________________

Margaret,
Hopefully the care giver will be a nice person. In matters such as these, there is no replacement for a friend. Hope all goes well, and just grit your teeth and smile with the care giver.

Diane, now that's loyalty when you would be willing to come all the way from Ontario just to be with be during my shot!
Deb, Thanks for that good advice about the "care-giver". I needed it too, so I won't be mean to anyone (sometimes this hapens under stress ), and will just smile! Good idea.
Thanks to both of you
btw: I plan to party the rest of the week! So do join me! Gonna celebrate this quit! _________________

Thanks, Tammy. I know what you mean! Me, too! Although I must say part of the "float" was a zillion drugs for awhile. I have so many allergies that they put a lot of stuff in me before the dye, plus anti-anxiety med, + this time MIgraine MED!
It was bummer, but I'm not thinkiing about it right now. I might post the gory details later, but don't even want to go there right now! Suffice to say, don't think I'm gonna have any more of them. (Although there's an old saying "never say never" --Except about our Quit of course!! THen it's "ever say never!!" )
My care-giver was wonderful!! Just a kind, loving, and knowlegable person!! She helped me so much, and I really didn't even need any anxiety med, I just let them give it to me to be on the safe side. But it's funny how a good competent care-giver like that just takes all the fear away, and lets'a person relax. Well worth the money!! She was a sweetie, and not at all afraid of telling the nurses to get me stuff, and she could also anticipate what I would need!!
BAck is in spasms and I cannot sleep, so making good time here posting! And tomorrow is the BIG PARTY!!!!!!! Y'alll come, now, y'hear? _________________
