What a Week!!!!!
Goodness gracious, I don't think I have rested since I started working last week. My first week of work went well. I was exhausted my first 2 days and took a 2 hour nap when I got home. I was better by the end of the week. This week has been a whirlwind, I almost don't remember what I've done. I had a gastric empty study which told my docs my stomach empties real fast and I still have my fast metabolism:) Hince why i have gained 2 more lbs, 94!!!!!! When I hit 100 be prepared to party. I fasted on Sunday night, ate one scrambled egg, 2 pieces of toast with jelly and they watched me digest it for 4 hrs... I was of course hungry by the end of it all. I dont think I do so well when they wont let me eat, haha. I was hoping to get my tube out this week but that hasn't happened yet. I went back to Stanford on Tuesday for an infusion, Areida. I believe it controls high doses of calcium. That took a total of 3 hours. Then today I had my clinic appointment. My day started at 530AM, went to draw blood, started work at 730AM, then a 12PM appointment to do my PFT which dropped 12%. Not so good. And then I was off to see my doctors at 2PM and they have scheduled me a Bronch again tomorrow for 8AM and yup you guessed it I have to stop eating at midnight and can't eat till the procedure is done. I could have an infection or rejection going on. But again I feel fine and Im not feeling any symptoms. We shall see what goes on tomorrow for my 4th day in a row at my second home:)
On a positive note my roomies came home so Im no longer alone! And Ive gained 2 lbs!!!!! One of my friends is celebrating her 1 year anniversary transplant so Im going to her party :) Ill be getting to see my cousins this weekend and going to hang out with them for a bit:) I hope next weeks is a little more relaxed.
