I just don’t get it

Friday, December 11th, 2009

So I’ve seriously been good with the diabetes (but missed my appointment last month… but as a somewhat valid excuse… I didn’t even have the $15 to cover the co-pay) and have been taking insulin shots (which by the way is now shooting OUT of the injection site WHILE I’m injecting…) and the prescribed medicines. I seriously should have had James enroll in the FSA thing as I just now realized that I’m spending A LOT of money on just monthly prescriptions.

TDI finally paid James his check so we got to pay off the bills and such!! I’m honestly glad I don’t have to sell Kurumi.

Although a strange thing happened. I didn’t so ANYTHING to my toe. No pedicure, no touching, no stubbing, nothing. But my toe started hurting really badly, got red like it’s getting infected and then it got infected. I neatly trimmed the long nail thinking maybe I stubbed it somewhere and it hurt. It was a neat trim that wasn’t cut low at all but now there is a small wound in the upper right part of the toe and its infected.

I just don’t get it… I mean does having diabetes mean that I freaking shoot bacteria out of my eyes when I look at my toes? I’m washing and alcoholing and neosporin-ing it now but BLEH… I don’t want to go to the doctor’s for this… *sigh* I seriously go to the doctors at least once a year from toe infections.

I also seem to have serious acid reflux problems. I am now waking up every night coughing and then phelming. I’ve felt sick to my stomach due to acid reflux morning sickness every morning from 5am-11am  since I got diabetes but it seems like its getting worse.  I’ve been prescribed zantac twice a day but that doesn’t seem to be helping.

It really is a privilege to be healthy.

Canker sore on my birthday

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

I’ve never had a canker sore in my whole entire life and I have one on the tip of my tongue… and its almost as painful as infected tooth abscess. Oh my goddness sake it hurts so much T_T. It looks like it wants to be popped too… and my eyes keep darting to the diabetes sterile lancets which happen to have a very very sharp thin tip on them. I’m so tempted but I don’t think its a good idea to be playing oral surgeon at the moment. The last thing I need is my tongue to get infected, rot, and fall off.

It hurts… and I think I may have to fast for a week or two until it heals.

Early Valentine’s Day gift from James~

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

Although it was a week and a day early, James gave me my Valentine’s Day gift… which to my absolutely excited disbelief is a 12.2 MP DSLR Camera!!!!!!! Specifically a Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12.2MP Digital SLR Camera with a EF-S 18mm-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens!! The thing is absolutely beautiful. It takes exquisitely detailed and beautiful pictures (even if said picture is of my stuffed Panda named Dennis and my stuffed Hello Kitty and Mimmy). The difference between my new DSLR and my previous point and shoot is so vast…  I’m now looking into getting a Macro lens for my birthday… if I can collect 50$ from each cousin/brother/aunt/uncle/James then I’ll have WAY more than enough for the lens… But I’m going to help my cousin move into her new place tomorrow and I’ll be testing the camera out on her beautiful son and daughter :)

On an another totally different note, the abscess infection on my gums has ruptured a couple of days ago… Its still pussing like nobody’s dirty business though (I have to squeeze a lot of puss out every couple of hours) and to put me out of my misery I must first go through the painful hell of a root canal… I am happy though that I don’t need a palette shot through the roof of my mouth since the tooth is located on the lower row. Ergh… I’m dead nervous about this… I wish it was possible for somebody to knock me out then drag me to the dentist and wake up with the procedure complete.

Teeth… how I hate thee

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

I’ve been suffering yet again from a tooth related infliction… Although I have no cavities anymore I’ve somehow managed to get an abscess and there’s been a huge painful bump full of puss on my gums for the past 2 weeks. I went to the doctor’s yesterday and got an antibiotic and a full thorough scolding from my doctor about my diabetes… or my lack of care of my diabetes. In fact the doctor ambushed me with blood testing supplies even though this appointment was a walk-in for the infection. Now I have to go back Monday and I’ll be put on insulin shots then. Joy. I was taken off insulin because it was making my blood sugar drop too low daily and they couldn’t predict a steady amount to give me. The doctor didn’t even give me a probiotic… T_T Its a good thing I randomly bought yogurt a couple of days ago.

I hate teeth… I wish I had the tolerance and money to just get all fake teeth put in. My dad did and they look good and he has no problems… cheap arsehole… I don’t understand why he didn’t take Dennis and me to the dentist for care regularly when we were underage but he himself get a whole new set of teeth, without insurance mind you and I can only imagine how much that cost.

Maybe I shouldn’t eat anything that requires chewing and I’ll stick to sucking down yogurts, puddings, and mushy oatmeals.

I’ve been trying to make doll clothes and patterns but its so frustrating because 1.) lack of sewing skill 2.) making a pattern, sewing an outfit, realizing that it doesn’t fit, make a modified pattern, repeat x4 gets very annoying 3.) losing what little motivation I had.

Ergh… Valentine’s Day is coming up… I have 9 years worth of miserable memories (sorry honie) of this useless holiday. Then comes my 26th birthday… Why do I still feel like I’m 16?

I hate allergies…

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

I absolutely hate allergies… and trying to obtain Claritin D.

I’ve noticed recently that Claritin D has not been worrkin too great for me. Or maybe its causing the dry eyes and aching sinus cavities…?

I ended up having to get this super expensive eye drop to put in my eye. The thing is really small and expensive… or maybe I’m so obessed with dolls that I think buying stuff for me is a waste and I could really be buying that shoe instead of buying Claritin…

Anyways… I walk into the house I’m supposed to move into and James opens the storage… and there is a dog. a DOG! A dog! I can’t describe to you with this blog how sad I felt. They locked the dog in storage with a chair and with its food and left it there for like 2 weeks…  I didn’t see water either.

I haven’t moved in yet but I did drop off a lot of my stuff that isn’t too important. I hope Joe doesn’t steal it like he did with the two huge HDtvs and most of the furniture.

I’m still freaking sick and I have no idea what it is. I’m still hacking up grey/black mucus from the depths of my lungs and it hurts like all hell. I’m still fevering.

BUT! I got the keys! I will be moving my stuff in tomorrow and the house is OURS!

Breathless

Monday, August 4th, 2008

I’ve been having bouts of breathlessness alot. Its not shortness of breath its like I can’t get enough air. I can’t breath now… I’m sweating and kinda feel very odd and dizzy. My hands are going numb but I think that may be from the carpel tunnel? I hope so because I don’t want it to be something else.

A strange occurance happened yesterday and it seriously put me into shock… It still hasn’t settled in yet. But because of it I’m moving out! Well James and me together. I’m on much better terms with my dad and I feel grateful to Dennis who’s helping out so much. It breaks my heart to leave NY knowing he’s there alone and I want to cry.

I need to control my health. I feel as if I’m going to die soon. I feel depressed and morbid.
