not feeling good

not feeling good

At the moment i am not feeling good. i feel like my body is in 'run away mode'. i feel my body is running on a high, my head is so mixed up. i have to go to bed and try to sleep, but don't know if i can.

my hormones are everywhere at the moment; my mood is sky high negative. i can't deal with this anymre. all of a sudden i am not feeling good. i think it is anxiety.

i don't know why i feel like this; i just want to cry but can't becsue everyone is home. i am going to bed. i don't know what is going on. actually maybe it is anxiety because i felt like passing out today.

I went to my GP to have my mirena IUD taken out as I had had enough. But he couldn't find the string, so he sent me for a ultrasound. Had that and the guy said i had two fibroids and a cyst on my ovary. but he couldn't find the string either, so had to have an xray to find the metal piece. they didn't tell me anything. but while waiting i was so anxious i almost passed out.

so now i have to wait for tomorrow when my GP will call me at work and let me know what will happen now. hopefully he can take the mirena out. i don't know.

my body is reacting to my anxiety - i feel so shaky, i need to stop. no point telling anyone at home becasue (a) they won't believe me and (b) they prob wouldn't care.

sorry, i had to tell someone. i feel so alone 😞

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay
YAY - sounds good.

I'm not sure which posts to move - but I think if you start the new thread and give context in the first post, it will work well.

🙂

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. Hope the hospital staff have managed your pain today. And fingers crossed by tomorrow morning the antibiotics will have kicked in and be fighting this infection - whatever it is.

Re: not feeling good

I'm bringing the piano @Appleblossom- it's not that big - it's an electronic and not a full-sized keyboard

And @BlueBay - you don't have to worry about a thing - just enjoy the fun

We're getting your under-the-stairs space sound-proofed - and I am bringing more Bailey's - just in case

I'm practising Roll out the Barrell

Re: not feeling good

You all are making me laugh 😂
Update:
Dr came in this morning - it's now not shingles but a bacterial infection on my head where the lump is. It then traveled down my face. Stopping shingles meds staying on Iv drip for antibiotics. Dr said I may be able to leave tomorrow. But he'll see me in the morning.
I need to go home. I'm stressing the boys leave today for Bali and auction on sat.
OMG the party / have to organise that. Whenever I think of us all under the stairs drinking I can't stop laughing 😂
Chat soon. Xxxooo

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay - we are all making you laugh - that is such a good thing

It sounds as if you got a spider bite - I am not surprised when you have been cleaning your house for all these visits - the spiders get annoyed when their spots are constantly disturbed - I am not saying your house is not clean - I know it is - but spiders have their hidey holes and orb spiders can give you a beastly bite - I know - I have had them

Now - things not to worry about

The party - we are doing all of that and you can come whether you are in hospital or not - we have arranged everything

Your sons - they are big boys now and one of them has already gone overseas so they will be okay - yes - we know about Bali - but you can't change a thing by stressing - your kids have to fly - I mean - as well as go in a plane - they have to leave the nest and it's time - my dd and her family goes overseas from time to time - they are okay

Your auction - that too will happen whether you are there or not - you will be able to speak to people on the phone - so if you still need IV antibiotics then don't worry - it will all work out

And about selling the house itself - yes - that is a big deal - whomever we are and however we are that is a major deal - that is the one to pick to stress about - and put all your stress there - let it get boring

Think about THE PARTY -

We care about you Blue - this is tough - but think of moving out of that house - how great will that be?

Lots of gentle hugs - I know about spider-bites - they can be super-nasty

@Decadian @utopia @Faith-and-Hope @Zoe7 @Appleblossom @NikNik and others who read this.

Boys are at airport flying to Bali at 6.45 pm. I know they'll be ok it's just a mother thing to worry.
Yes @Decadian I still think now it's a spider bite. It's so itchy now. And the lump is so big and very sore.
Ok house is clean and tidy - according to hubby and I csnt fi snything. I'm sure it will be ok. Boys cleaned their rooms before they left snd my daughter cleaned hers this morning before work. At least 2 rooms will stay clean for a week.
I've been colouring in my book and am feeling relaxed. Had an afternoon nap and went outside in courtyard this morning. It's so hard when you're couped up in hospital room snd no fresh air. It was nice to sit out there and listen to the birds look at the trees and enjoy the sun.
Open house soon. Then catching up with agent tomorrow night to go over the big day.
In a way it was good (well not good) but you know what I mean by being in hospital because it was out of my control to keep house clean snd work. It was good cause kids and hubby had to do housework washing clothes and keep house tidy!!!

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. I'm glad the doctors have worked out it's a bacterial infection. The antibiotics will work soon.
Don't forget - not all of us will be under the stairs. Some of us have a branch with a view. And you don't need to do anything fir Saturday party. We are all bringing food and drinks. Hubby can have the ladder ready - to rescue me - should I need help. And he or your daughter can sweep under the stairs and put a few comfy cushions in there.
I told my son about the party. He thinks I'm more nuts than when I was sick last year. Lol. Cheeky bugger
