Update.

Doc appointment this am.

Infection still lingers. Switched me to amoxicillan. 10 day run. With another appointment immediately to follow as the doc wants to make sure it's done the trick.

Was wondering why I was so tired. Thought it was all the late night phone talking I've been doing. ;)

Did get my butt chewed for being back in the gym. I was taking it easy. Cardio and light weights only. And I felt great if not somewhat weeker than I had been. Doc advised that when your body is healing from a surgery or infection it's best to let it do THAT. Not distract it by having it rebuild muscle. I feel like such a goof now. :(

So it's def oughta the gym till I see him again on the 18th. Grrrrr.......so frustrating.

In the meantime I've found someone to occupy my attention. ;)

I'll keep ya posted, ladies. :)

Ducky...did you get a culture done??? After mine came back, it showd just a little staph infection, but I was treated full course for staph...they said that since I'd been on antibiotics so much already that the culture was probbly a bit off and if I hadn't been on antibiotics it probably would have shown even more staph. I'm finally almost better...couple of shots in the glutes and 5 days of orals cleared me up. They were two diff. antibiotics, both used for skin infections...unlike the other meds I was given before. Good luck!
 
Also...we had to stop topical vit. E and switched to only oral, plus Zinc added in. I'm still takin my multi and my vit. C. I'm also using a topical antibiotic...seems to help.
 
Yes, Mrs P. Had the culture done. Doc thinks I'm resistant to Cipro. Had a case of bronchitis a few months back. Was prescribed for that. Couple other bouts with illness past year or so I've gotten cipro. After culture he thought cipro was the way to go but I'm apparently resistant.

I'm also popping vitamins like crazy. Got a bottle of chewable vitamin C in my desk drawer. Constantly with an orange tongue. LOL

Trust me; you'll be on such a "high" that you will feel absolutely euphoric!!

You guys are going to have the time of your life!!! :agreed: :love:
 
Okies. Asking for help again. I hate when I do this. I feel all needy and a downer and such.

As most of you probably know, lost my Grammie two evenings ago.

Thing is, I've been holed up in my apartment since. Just sad I guess.

Woke up today feeling rather spunky, like I'd like to go do something. Went out for maybe an hour, grabbed a sandwich, hit the market for some soda........ Now I'm holed back up in my apartment again. Just wanna be home.

Is this depression? What the hey? I'm usually running around like I've got a fire lit under my ass.

My Sweets is coming to visit next weekend. I'm so excited, but I can't seem to muster the strength to get through a day let alone get ready for his visit. :(

This just bites. So many things I'd like to be doing. Just can't get the Oompf to do any of it. I just feel sad. :(

Anyone ever dealt with this? Suggestions welcome.
 
hey sweetie, sorry to hear about ur loss. It's so tough when u lose someone. One of my good friends committed suicide this year and I was really messed up from it. What ur going through is normal for sure. I found that going to the gym and keeping myself busy helped but there was also times when I needed to deal with it and just be alone. And of course when we're alone, we tend to get sad and emotional but that's all part of the healing process. You need to experience these feelings. Things will get better and you'll be back to yourself in no time. Take care and hey, you know you have friends here.;)
 
Being depressed about loosing a loved one is normal. Time will make it less painful, but for now, it's just gonna hurt bad. I'm sure once your sweetie pie poochikins lovey wubby gets into town, you'll be all smiles. Just hang in there until that day comes. :)

Also, taking some 5htp will help boost your seratonin levels so that's worth a try. Pay attention to the music you're listening to, too. Don't listen to a lot of sad songs as that will bring you deeper into depression. Let me know if you want to get together for a bite to eat or a few drinks...I'll make funny faces atcha and embarrass the bartender if it'll make ya smile. :)

Hugggggs, Duckie.

Hahahaha! You just did Mrs. P.


I'm suddenly curious as to haow you'd go about embarrassing the bartender. Hmmmm................;)
 
hehehe...I've got my ways and I embarrass a lot less easilly than most people. ;) I like being a little goofy. The way I look at it is that I'd probably never see the bartender ever again, so I don't care what he'd think of me for the night, but on the other hand, once someone gets to know me, they know I'm just playing around with them and know it's all in fun. :)
