It's Tuesday, and Jaimee is really sick today. We are thinking she caught the bug that a few members of the family had over the weekend. So we don't think today's illness has anything to do with her abscess. Except for one thing: antibiotics wreak havoc with your stomach, and she has been on so much lately, so it is making her especially uncomfortable.
She is miserable today. Her head hurts really bad, and she can't take her usual pain medication because she is on so much medication already, the doctor doesn't want to add to it. Right now Jaimee is on antibiotics, steroids, anti-seizure medicine, and blood thinners. She also can't keep any food down today. She is trying to take sips of water and gatorade to prevent getting dehydrated. This morning she tried for 45 minutes to get ready and go to work. Obviously she didn't make it.
She had a brain scan yesterday and we are still waiting to hear the results of that. She talked to the doctor's nurse earlier to let them know what was going on. She is hoping the doctor will give her the results over the phone, since she is so sick there is no way she can go in to the doctor today. If they need to do any medical treatments today, we are hoping they can send a nurse here to the house.
It's not all bad right now. One good thing is her work has been very understanding of her condition. She is lucky that she doesn't have to worry about her job. She has enough stress as it is.
