I got myself out of bed and to work this morning, although I bearly made it. I almost turned around half way to work becuase I felt so bad, but I made myself go, I figured if anything I’ll go and have them check my bp to see how it was. So I got there and had the nurse check my bp and it was 122/74 which is fine and my sugar was only a little up so I thought I’d be fine, if only the awful morning sickness feeling would have worn off. So I had a lot to get done at work, despite the fact I worked Saturday and got a lot done then too. So I told myself I would see how I felt after getting all my goals done for the day, so lunch time rolled around and I was just about done everything I had to get done before tomorrow and I still felt pretty bad, not to mention my stress level was up because I was having it out with one of the drs and a patient even had the gall to curse and yell at me today so I decided it was either go home and relax or risk having a nervous breakdown or causing pre-term labor. So here I am in the comfort of my nice quiet home, no drs, no patients, no stress. And my nice comfy bed! So I am vowing to myself to spend the afternoon propped up in bed with a book, or actually napping. I kind of am mad at myself I mean I work 5 hours, I probably could have worked the next 3 but I really was in a bad mood and after the last incident that made me so furious with the one dr I knew I’d better get out of there before I made myself either sicker or fired!
I called my dr this morning to see what they had to say about how I’ve been feeling and they think it is just a bug but that if I start to not be able to keep foods down to call them right away. They told me to do my best to eat at least a little something and keep in fluids. But I really have no appetite and the more I drink the more I end up in the bathroom, ah, pregnancy. So they weren’t too concerned really, but they said to watch my sugars closely and to call if anything changes. And since my blood pressure (bp) was fine there wasnt much concern over my huge swollen ankles and fingers. So I have pretty much put myself on bed rest mainly to keep myself sane and so I wont be so exhausted. Oh well….work was very understanding and one of the girls told me to just sit down and relax and not worry about some of the stuff that she could do it, but I still ended up doing all of my work for the day and then even some from tomorrow since half of the office goes on vacation starting tomorrow through next Monday. So I figured I’d better rest up now cause it is going to be one of those weeks…….
