so i finally made it to the doctor last night, both my mom and i had a constant feeling of urgency to go to the doc before it closed, we made it a half hour before. I got in and my fever was 105.4, blood pressure was 74/34, pulse was 72 and i felt really crappy. They did some testing, and gave me some stuff. I have a nasty nasty kidney infection, that could get worse, so I have to be really careful right now. They gave me an antibiotic shot last night, a surposetory (sp?) and an 800 mg Iboprofen. couldn't get my antibiotic prescription filled yet becaues the pharmacioes all around us were close, thus the shots. The rest were to bring my fever down pretty much. I was there for about an hour, and it went down to 104.1, sent me home told my mom to monitor my fever, it went down and about 1 am it was normal temperature, so that was a good sign. Woke up this morning puking though, and was told that I needed to go back in tomorrow morning anyway to do a check up. I was too dehydrated so they put me on an IV, they were going to do two bags, but i started feeling better halfway through the first one, so they said one bag was good for now. They also did liquid anitbioitc through the IV. Prescribed some anti nausea stuff and some more pain pills for my back. I'm home now, I feel better my stomach hates me right now, and I wish I could drink the tallest glass of ice cold water right now and eat bratwursts. :( but alas, I shall wait for that. They also did some blood testing today to make sure the infection hadn't spread to my blood system already, if it had it would have taken a lot more aggressive action. If i had waited another day or two, I would have probably had to been hospitalized. And I thought I just had the flu, heh. In the blood testing, i'm back to being anemic again, and i have to get it back up before i even think about having children and i have to take folic acid as well.
If my temperature goes back up to the 103-104 range, I have to go back in. If i start puking again, I have to go back in for another IV and more testing. I've been sick since last Wednesday :( I had a bladder infection, i was drinking cranberry juice and stuff, and it started feeling a lot better, and monday i pretty much felt all the way better and myself again. Monday night I got slammed with fevers and chills, and hav ebeen sick like that since then, so I thought it was just the flu, how wrong was I. heh.
So if you could all just keep me in your prayers that no further harm will be done, i would really really appreciate it, I'm tired of being sick like this. I hope the rest of you are doing well and all is going well for you all :)
*hugs to all*
