I went to the Dr. yesterday. I called on Tuesday after you guys prompted me with such loving care. More than I got at home. Yes I have pneumonia. The doctor has an xray machine in his office so he doesnt have to send a patient off unless it is for a major issue. A chest xray or simple break is done there. He wouldnt let me leave his office until I did 3 rounds of breathing treatments either because I was wheezing that badly. He also said we had to do something about cortisone. He understood the problems I had with it because of the bipolar but I needed a steroid in me to knock this inflammation out now. We discussed which I wanted to deal with, a shot or a course of pills. I took a shot. I figured I would rather deal with that at one time than a whole week of being on them. If I was on them for a week I would definitely go manic fast.
Im hoping I am so tired from this koi that I dont have the energy to go manic...lol.
They gave me a new supply of albuterol for the nebulizer, some antibiotics, and cough medicine that insurance wont cover. It is phenergan based. All it is is phenergan and the stuff in any normal cough and decongestant syrup but insurance wont cover it. Not insurance will cover phenergan pills. It just wont cover the cough syrup. Idiot. Im just gonna buy me a bottle of over the counter cough syrup and take a pill along with a dose of cough syrup. idiotic.
I have to take the nebulizer treatments every 4 hours round the clock for the first 3 days and then as needed after that.
Tony got home last night and I was laying down on the couch. I had not gotten home long before him because I had to go around to get my medications, some drinks and some stuff for dinner. I was exhausted. He comes in and I tried to tell him what the doctor said and he said well yeah, we knew that days ago....so what. I said, we the doctor confirmed it and he gave me medications and I got a steroid shot and blah blah. He started in on how he had a worse day than I had.
He said he hoped this was the last year he worked in construction and it was all my fault because I made him work Cory. Well...we heard no issues out of him about Cory until he hired Buck. I dont doubt that Cory is on edge there now because of Buck.
The night before I went to the doctor I asked Tony to help me take a shower because I was very weak and when I shut my eyes I started getting dizzy so I asked him to get into the shower with me. Well, I fixed the water temp and had it running but hadnt made it come out the shower head yet so I was waiting for him to get in the tub and I figured he would get in behind me and shut the shower curtain. He YELLS at me to take the handheld spigot thing out and hold it toward the tub and wait for him to get in. He starts cussing at me and says I am just like Buck at work who stands there with a stupid look on his face and cant get anything done unless someone is right there to tell him what to do every damn minute of the day! Now I dont think it was called for with me, but I thought that was an interesting comment about how Buck works.
Anyway...I am completely sure that Buck is causing Cory to go ape at work. Cory is much like me and if Buck is picking at him like he does me Cory is going to snap. That means Tony is going to get it badly.
Tony came home last night in an awful mood telling me he hoped he only had to work one more year in construction and that it was all my fault because I made him work MY son. Not our son, not his son...my son. Damn I didnt know I had a child without a father! Then I said to him well thats great that you want to change careers. I saw something on TV where you can take a class online for free to see if you think online school is for you and if you pass it transfers to whatever school you go to. He looked at me like I had lost my mind. He said why on earth would I want to go to school? Im 50! I said so what? Lots of people start over at that age. You could get your some college credits and then go teach construction to kids at a community college. You know your koi and who better to teach it? He just shook his head like I was stupid. He said if he doesnt work anymore he just wants to die. I said well I can arrange that too. I have plenty of stuff to do that. Just say the word. Dont mess with me.
Oh hell...he just gave me the perfect reason to have him baker acted! And I blew it.
If he says it again, I am calling someone asap.
