Finally Talked To The Dr’s Office…Again

Last night, yet again, I couldn’t sleep. I had a horrible headache and was super nauseous. The last time that I looked at my clock it was 3:30. Then I heard my hubby come home from work at 6:00am and couldn’t fall back asleep. My alarm went off an hour later. After dropping off my son, my hubby and I had breakfast and watched The Good Doctor together. Then he stayed downstairs and I went up to bed. I called Dr Hauptman’s office back and talked to his nurse again. Then I went to bed. It took me a while to fall asleep. I slept until about noon, when my daughter was calling me from school. She wasn’t feeling well. My hubby went and picked her up from school. About 5 minutes after I got off of the phone with her Dr Hauptman’s nurse called me back. He wants me to increase my Topomax and he was faxing in a prescription to my pharmacist that is an injection that my pharmacist is supposed to give to me. I’m also supposed to continue with the injections that I give to myself. After I got off the phone with her, I went back to bed. I slept until it was time to get my son from school. I went downstairs and my hubby ended up picking him up, while I got my son’s sleepover stuff ready, because he was going to a friend’s house tonight to have a sleepover. When they got home I took my son to Shoppers to buy a small present with him for a birthday party that he is going to tomorrow. Then my daughter and I drove him to the sleepover. After dropping him off, we went to Sobeys and got some groceries. Then we came home and I cooked supper. After eating supper, my daughter and I watched a couple shows. Then we went to the Rexall to pick up her prescription and get my injection. They had no idea what injection I was talking about. They had just prepared a refill of the injections that I picked up last month. I told them that I was supposed to be getting a different injection today from the pharmacist. They didn’t know what I was talking about!! So now it looks like I have to wait until the long weekend is over and call Dr Hauptman back on Tuesday. What a pain!!! Also, they only were giving me 3 vials. I asked them if they owed me 5 vials, because last time I paid $26 for 8 vials and this time I was paying the same amount for 3!! She said, no, we only prepared 3 for you. I told her that I wanted all 8! So she said that I can pick up the rest tomorrow. Then she was just going to give me the vials. I had to tell her that last time they actually gave me the needles so that I could actually inject the medication that’s inside the vials. Wow!! Quite the gong show!! Anyway! After that mess, we came back home and watched a couple more shows, then we got ready for bed. It’s actually pretty late now. I just gave myself a dang needle, so hopefully I’ll be able to sleep!!

I’m going to try to sleep now.

Night All! 💤😴

Calling Dr Tomorrow Again

Guess what?! I have a headache and my tummy feels nauseous… shocking right?! My dr still didn’t get back to me. So I’m going to call him again tomorrow morning. I don’t want to wait for the whole long weekend to pass. Last night I was really not feeling well. The effects of the needle that I gave myself earlier in the evening had warn off and I laid in bed awake until about 4:30!!! That sucks! Especially just not feeling well. My alarm went off at 7:00, so I obviously didn’t get enough sleep. I went right back to bed once the kids went to school. I didn’t fall asleep right away, despite how tired I felt. I did finally fall asleep though. I picked up the kids from school. Then I drove my daughter to dance. I popped into Sobeys for a couple things on the way home. Then I made supper when I got home. My hubby ate quickly and left for work. Then my son and I ate. My oldest daughter was at work. After eating my son and I played a game that he made up. Then we went to the city to pick up my daughter and her friend from dance. We dropped off her friend and came home. I got my son into bed. My daughter came home from work. We watched a couple shows together. We’re going to watch another. Then I’m going to get ready for bed.

Still Nothing From The Dr

This morning I went to bed after the kids went to school. I was nauseous and had the infamous headache. My dr still hasn’t gotten back to me, which is very out of character for him. I’m still waiting. If I don’t hear from him tomorrow, then I’ll try again on Friday. I didn’t sleep as late today. The kids had early dismissal from school, so I picked them up, then we came home and my daughter actually had time for a snack after school and time to sit for a bit. Then I got gas in the van and drove her to dance. I stopped at the bank and at Sobeys on the way home. When I got home my hubby was exhausted and not feeling great, so he decided to stay home from work. I made some sweet and sour meat-balls for supper. My hubby and I watched The Good Doctor. Then I got my son into bed. My daughter got off work at 10:00. I watched a couple shows with her. I still am. Then I’m going to get ready for bed.

Same Old Thing

This morning, once the kids were at school, I stayed up until 9:00, so that I could call Dr Hauptman’s office when they opened to talk to them about my damn headaches. I started calling at 9:00 and finally got through at about 10:00. I kept getting their answering machine, on which you cannot leave a message. I talked to his nurse and told her what has been happening with my stupid daily headaches. Usually he gets back to you within the day, however I didn’t hear from him again today. Hopefully I’ll hear from him tomorrow. After talking to her, I did my usual, I took something for my headache and nausea and then I laid down. It took a while, but I finally fell asleep. I woke up and went on my phone for a bit. Then I got my kids from school. I drove my daughter to dance. While she was dancing I went to my parent’s house and watered their plants and printed a few photos. Then I picked up my daughter and we drove home. Once home we had supper. Then my daughter and I watched a couple shows while my son watched YouTube videos. Then I got him into bed. Afterwards we watched some more shows. We’re watching another then I’m heading to bed.

Damn Headache

This is going to be a super short post. Mainly because it’s 3:20am and I haven’t been able to sleep yet tonight. I’ve been lying here with a pounding headache wishing that it would just go away, but it’s been here since my alarm went off at 7:00am this morning. I just realized, as I’m lying here not sleeping, that I forgot to write this tonight!! I’ve had a horrible headache all day. So bad that I spent most of the day while the kids were at school in bed. Tomorrow I’m going to call Dr Hauptman and tell him that there has been no change in my headaches, except for when I give myself the injections, which I think I’m going to do right as soon as I finish this!! He told me to call if there was no change after a month passed. When school was finished I did the usual, I picked up the kids and then I drove my daughter to dance. Then I came home and made supper like usual. My hubby went to work. My son played video games and watched YouTube videos and my daughter and I watched a couple shows, then I picked up my daughter and her friend from dance. My daughter got my son into bed. Then I watched a show with my daughter and tried to sleep and here I am. I’ve had a damn headache all day. At least my tummy isn’t nauseous today, that’s something right?!

A Busy Day Mixed With Playing And HouseWork

Today I didn’t sleep in as late as I did yesterday. When I got up I went downstairs and I had something to eat. Then I did the dogs ears with the ear wash stuff. Afterwards I played a game with my son. Then I cleaned and organized some more in my bathroom. My son and I played another game. Then I did some laundry. My son and I went to Sobeys and then Rexall. Then we went back home and we checked the laundry. I made us a quick supper, since it was just for the two of us. After we ate, we played another game. Then I gave him a bath. I got him ready for bed. Once he was sleeping, I had a long relaxing shower. Then I watched a show with my daughter. I’m going to watch another one. Then I will get ready for bed.

Another Lazy-Ish Day

I ended up falling asleep far too late last night. Which, in turn, meant that I slept too late today. Fortunately it was the weekend so I didn’t have to get my kids to school. My son and hubby got up together. I stayed in bed. When I got up I went on my phone. Then I went downstairs and had something small to eat. Then I woke up my daughter. I took something out of the freezer for supper. I cleaned some dishes and I defrosted the meat. I got the meat cooking and the rice ready to cook. And we put the ear wash stuff in the dogs ear. Then my daughter and I did some laundry. I had to scrub some badly stained things by hand. When I was finally finished, supper was ready. We ate supper, then my daughter and I watched a couple shows. Afterwards I got my son into bed. I watched some more with my daughter and I’m going to watch one more. Then I’ll get ready for bed.

A Restless Sleep

This morning I got my son off to school and then I went on my phone for a while. Then I took something for both my head and my tummy and laid down. It took me forever to fall asleep, my head was just pounding, so I just laid there for a long time. At least I was resting my eyes. I finally drifted off early afternoon and then I thought that my hubby had his regular afternoon alarm set. However, he didn’t, so we both ended up sleeping until my daughter was calling to ask if we were on our way to pick her up. My hubby ran out the door right then and picked them up. My oldest daughter and I made a grocery list and then we went to No Frills and bought most of the things that we need for next week. We took everything home and then my daughter started putting things away while I went to Sobeys and got the last few things that we needed. Then I went back home and I got the roast in the oven. My daughter and I cleaned the kitchen and organized the cupboard. Then we did the dishes and she peeled the potatoes while I cut them and put them into the pot. When everything was ready we all sat down for supper together. It was a bit late, but it was still a good meal. After supper we took down all of the outside Halloween decorations since it snowed last night and off and on for most of the day today. When we came back inside my son watched a YouTube video and my daughter and I hung up most of the decorations around the house so that they could dry. Then my hubby put my son to bed and my daughter and I watched a couple shows while my hubby played some video games. Now I’m going to head to bed.

PD Day

This morning the kids didn’t have school. There’s never school the day after Halloween in Beaumont. The school board makes it a PD day for the teachers. They do have school tomorrow though. We had to wake up at about 9:00 this morning, because my son was going to a birthday party. He was picked up at about 10:00. I stayed up until about 11:00. I didn’t sleep well last night, yet again and I’m with headache and nausea again. So I decided to lie down for a while. When I got up I went on my phone for a while. Then I had something small to eat. My son’s friend from school came over to play. My hubby brought up the tv from the basement so that they could play a video game together, each of them on a different tv, but playing together online. At about 3:30 I drove my daughter to dance. I drove back home after dropping her off. I sat with my daughter for a bit, then I started supper. My hubby ate quickly and then had to leave for work. My son’s friend left at about 5:45. We ate supper. Then my son watched YouTube videos on one tv, while my daughter and I watched a couple shows on the other one. Then I picked up my daughter and her friend from dance. After dropping off her friend, we came home. I finished putting my son to bed. Then I went downstairs and watched a couple more shows with my daughter. We’re going to watch another and then I’m going to get ready for bed.

Happy Halloween 🎃

This morning I woke up with a pounding headache/migraine mess! I was super tired and only got about 3 hours of sleep, because I just couldn’t sleep last night and I was in pain and still nauseous!! I’ve been having weird auras daily also. We got up a bit earlier than normal so that we had time to get my son’s costume on for the Halloween celebration at his school. I dropped him off. I went back to bed for about an hour and a half. Then I got up and helped my oldest daughter with her Halloween costume for work. She left for work. I still wasn’t feeling great, so I lied down for a couple more hours. My daughter didn’t have a very long shift today and she woke me up when she got home. We went outside and fixed a few of the decorations that were falling down. Then we went and picked up the kids from school. We dropped off my younger daughter at home, then went to McDonald’s and bought 4 happy meals with her 50% discount. We brought them home and ate quickly. Then I took some photos of the kids outside:

We went back inside and I gave myself one of my injections since nothing else was working. Then we got everything ready for the trick or treaters coming here and for my son and oldest daughter taking my son out (with his friend). At about 6:00 I drove them to his friend’s house and they went trick or treating from there. My hubby had to work and my younger daughter helped me at home. We kept the dogs on leashes and when kids came to the door, one of us would go to the door to hand out candy and the other would hold onto the dogs. My son and his friend didn’t last very long, not as long as last year. My daughter came home about an hour and a half after they left. They wanted to stop, so his friend’s dad drove her home. My son stayed at their house to play for a while. We watched the 2009 remake of Friday The 13th. I had wanted to watch it for a while, because Jared Padalecki, the actor from the show Supernatural that my daughter and I watch is in it. She’s not a fan of horror movies though and didn’t really want to watch it. I actually started it with my younger daughter and thought my oldest daughter would be home a lot later. However, she came home 5 minutes after I started it, so she was there for the whole movie. My younger daughter went to her friend’s house for a sleepover partway through. They were going to watch their own scary movies tonight. I drove her there and then came home and watched the end of my movie. The last trick or treater came at about 9:30 and she was actually pretty young too!! I was surprised!! Once my movie was finished I went and picked up my son from his friend’s house. Then we watched a couple YouTube videos. He fell asleep on the couch. He was beat!! I got the bed ready and, even though he’s getting awfully heavy, my daughter carried him up to bed. Then I did a couple things and now I’m going to go to bed.
