It's been about two weeks since my last fall-out with my health. It has been a bit challenging, since I've been thrown into menopause once again. I'm taking a non-hormonal medicine called Dixarit for hot flashes (credit to my friend Leona). Although it doesn't seem to help much with my emotional mood swings, I'm greatful for not having to sleep in a pool of sweat! Besides that, I'm still bleeding a little but only about 1/4 teaspoon per day, so nothing to really concern myself about. I do have to admit, wearing a pad/liner was not on my list of things, that's for sure....feels strange having to wear them again.
So I carry on, focusing on the positive which are that the bleeding is not as bad as it was, I'm off Dilaudid (which is great since I had so much trouble last time I was on it), I can return to work on Monday (which oddly enough I do miss) and I seem to have regained some of my appetite.
Again, I thank everyone who sent me notes and well wishes, I truly appreciate the support. Now I still wait for the pathology results from the biopsy, prayers & words of kindness & support are always welcome. I will be sure to update once I receive the results and have shared with my family.
I would also like to convey a special thank you to those who opened their homes and provided a place for my husband to crash while I was in the hospital. Thank you Micheline and Brad, Bill and Maria, your generosity is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you to Kelly and Bruce for picking up my phone charger and mailing it to me, you definetely went above & beyond and your friendship means a great deal to me. You are very kind people.
Cheers,
Dee :)
