Still had not heard from the doc today regarding nausea meds so I sent another email. My stomach hurt so bad today that I didn't eat at all. Started at looking at side effects for both and my urine output is low even with lots of fluids, dark, I'm also drowsy, but sleep really good at night, and begged for something even OTC. Nurse forward the message to my doc and he replied with to stop both antibiotics and put me on Zofran. And to let them know how I'm feeling in the morning. Well, of course the Zofran was not at the pharmacy. Got some mashed potatoes down at supper and sipping a Sprite Zero at the moment. Will find out more in the morning what they are going to do regarding antibitotic treatment. I was worried about my kidneys - don't want to hurt them trying to save my feet. If it's not one thing it's another.
On the plus side - all wounds measured smaller yesterday. Progress. I have been wearing these ugly edema stockings and my feet are so fat at the end of the day...and they are easy to go on. Asked the nurses about it and they said - well most of the people we deal with have way fatter feet and legs then you so we only keep that size on hand. The compression socks I got from amazon work way better. My feet are puffy in my eyes-to them not so much. Hopefully they get a smaller size in or I'll stick with the Amazon ones. I just don't think puffy feet are helping wounds. Would have been nice to know this 3 visits ago when you gave me the first pair.
Haven't had time to call the Hearing Office - I'm alone in the office so of course everyone I have not heard from is calling with problems that are way over head. One guy called and said he got a new scooter from the VA, but it's too big and he's wondering if he can take it back. I'm like this isn't a pair of pants. This a machine fitted for you. I didn't tell him that, but I was thinking it.
I also have a slight fear if I call it'll tick of the judge.
