Did today fly by or was I in shock over all the news?
I had my appointment at 11:00. My Dr. wasn’t able to do much because none of my paperwork was in the medical record, not even the CT scan! How the world is does that happen? Oh wait, we’re in the military, it always happens.
He stuck a 6 inch pipe thing up my nostrils. This makes 3 different sizes up my nose. Anyway, I had some pain but not nearly like I did when I had those 12 inches go up there! He probed a little and quickly discovered that my nose is broken. So now that too is going to need repair! He asked if I could quickly get my hands on the CT scan. Well lucky for me my husband works in the clinic! Of course I can.
I went to base and within minutes there were 2 corpsmen, 1 LT and a commander on top of it. I was out of there within 30 minutes. I had to go to P’cola to pick up the requested info. That took a while by the way. We got home at 5pm.
My nose is a little aggravated and I have only a small amount of pain, enough that I can withstand it with minimal medication, if any.
When I came home I had my allergy test results in hand. Yeah okay, I can’t read it at all!! I asked Mike if he could interrupt what’s on it and all he said was “The nurse said you are HIGHLY allergic to mold. That’s the main one on the paper.”
Umm Mike, “DUHHH!!” “Ya think honey?” The list I have is 2 pages long. Yep, that’s it, only 2. HA!
Tomorrow I have to go back to the Dr. at 1530; that’s…………………………3:30pm. Sorry I forgot what the conversion was on the time. I should have been a Marine! LOL!
My instructions were to use the Nedi Pot 3 times a day and while awake keep my head elevated. Take Motrin for pain and ice my brains away.
That’s really all for tonight. I’ll post more tomorrow evening. Stayed tuned peeps but it’s only going to get better. Actually I’m going to take a look at what kind of nose I want. HEHE!
I say get a brain freeze with an Icee. ;)
