what a day
Gah..its gone. Hurray for that but boy was today an event.
Got there at 9AM and went to get my bloodwork done. Of course they had to go through my arm which is always pretty tramatic. Well apparently today it was doubly so..because I passed out. One minute I was fine, the next I got lightheaded and the next thing I knew there were 4 nurses and my mother trying to revive me. I don't remember anything and I have no idea how long I was out. But it was long enough for them to go out to the waiting room, ask my mom if I was prone to seisures and have them bring her to the room I was in.
My hands were tingling when I finally came too..very slowly. They were fanning me and shaking me and apparently I was just very pale and my lips were white and I was just completely unresponsive. I'm going to blame the lack of sleep the last few days or con stress or something..
So after that adventure they put me in a wheelchair because I still wasn't all there and my mom pushed me to the radiology department where I was supposed to get the port taken out.
There, they told me that it would only take about 20 minutes and that I would be awake for the whole thing. They were just going to numb the area. Great. Thats..just great. So they start getting me ready and just as the doctor is about to start adding the numbing stuff (which I thought was a crema..but turned out to be MORE NEEDLES..yeah I was crying by this point). ANyway, before he could do that suddenly this huge lamp that was above me fell over and made this huge crash that brought these nurses running to my room. Luckily it didn't fall on me, but rather just behind the bed. I mean the thing was like..7 feet tall and probably heavy as hell because it took three of them to lift it back up into position. Once that was done they left again and the doctor once more tried to start.
Much pain and tears later and some slight hyperventalating because it just felt so damn weird and uncomfortable and the stiches were painful..it was done and they sent me on my way, now in pain and looking like a complete wreck.
My parents took me to O'Charleys where my mom gave me some aspirin for the pain because I burst into tears again in the car because it hurt so much. Then we went to Best buy and I bought Naruto dvds and Repo and Ghostbusters to make me feel a little better and because we had a coupon.
Then we came home and I took more aspirin and just sat around until 6 when I went to the cancer Survivor dinner. I won a doorprize which was cool since I don't usually win doorprize type stuff.
And now it hurts again and I'll probably take even more aspirin and hope that I can even sleep tonight because I have to work the rest of the week.
But no more port. And there are lots of benefits to that and once I get over the fact that it hurts right now, I'll be happy.
Expect pics of the con later tonight as I get caught up with everything.
