Lumbar Puncture


Blondie

Recommended Posts

Well, another WONDERFUL test coming tomorrow.

A lumbar puncture.......commonly known as a spinal tap........tomorrow morning at 8:00 am.

The doctor says I will have to be pretty calm for the next couple of days. He said laying down will relieve the headache I am sure to have.

So, here I am, going to be lying around for the next couple of days....in the off season.

Can y'all think of anything for me to do for 2 days of laying around?

I DON'T have a boyfriend at this time, so the NATURAL thing to do is NOT an option.

:laugh:

Not sure if the NATURAL thing would be an option anyway. What with planning to have and then actually having a headache. ;)

Hope all goes well. And can watch movies, sleep. Rinse. Repeat as necessary.

1. I really need to get you to speak w/ my wife....the natural thing and your mind went there......You are gonna make a beautiful Blondie Cartwright.

2. I find that time passes very quickly when I'm ill prepared for something upcoming.....Maybe you could sign up for a final exam at a local college....not study at all........not prepare - back about 12 years ago that time before the exam went by faster than anytime I've ever spent on this planet.

3. Alternatively, you could Tivo golf, bass fishing and bowling on Tivo and just drift in and out of consciousness for a couple days while you watch some of the most tedious programming on TV....

Thanks guys for caring.

It felt like the guy was trying to push my lower spine out through my stomach. He didn't find what he was looking for at first and had to "dig" (he used this word) around a bit.

I cried. Not a lot.........but enough to mess up my makeup.

Didn't have a really bad headache, but did have head pressure.

The next round of wonderful things for me is shots in my tummy.

A drug called Lovenox. I think he said I have to take 2 shots a week........12 hours apart.

And guess how much this drug costs!!

Brand 150mg/1ml 30 syringes $1,415.70

Geez.

I may NOT get to go to any games this year. I will have all my Redskin game $$ injected into my tummy.
