I had the absolute worst night last night! I woke up around 2-ish with horrible abdominal cramps and I spent all night up and down. And I noticed then that my right leg was very sore, it felt like it does after I have a leg cramp. So I just thought maybe I was going to get a leg cramp so I propped up my leg. After a total of maybe 2 or 3 hours of decent sleep I got up and got ready for work, still feeling very awful, but knowing that we were already short staffed today at work. And I was trying so hard not to complain about how I felt so I didnt tell Dean too much and it wasn’t until I was about to leave did I mention to him about my leg hurting. Apparently around 12 or so I had woken up with a bad leg cramp and asked him to rub it out and I kept saying ow ow ow. Strange thing is, I have no recollection of this whatsoever. The only reason I know he isn’t making it up is because I can still feel how sore my leg is and that is how it always is after I get one of those leg cramps. I asked him what I said to him and if I seemed awake and he said I was talking to him! I can’t believe it. I must have been very sick not to remember, so I guess my stomach cramps must have been really bad since I remember the pain and I was in and out of the bathroom for hours. I guess the leg cramp wasn’t that bad or I would have woken up or at least remembered. So, it was one of those nights, and then I had to work since there was no one to replace me at work so today was a pretty bad day too. I came home and started having bad abdominal cramps again and immediately crawled into my favorite position in bed, lying on my left side, and was asleep before I even realized it.
I am glad I have a dr’s appt tomorrow, I have to see the specialist and have my weekly ultrasound. My sugar levels have been great the last two days and I’ve done nothing different, except be very ill. And I think I’ve eaten a lot less as a result of how I’ve felt so yesterday my sugar even got too low twice and I had to ward off the shakes and eat something right away. So I am worried how Caleb is being affected by my sudden highs and lows of sugar and especially worried about this stomach bug or whatever it is that keeps coming back to haunt me. So we will see what the dr says tomorrow. I am scheduled to work and then leave and come back, but pending how my appt goes we will see if I go back. But we are moving our office this week and I know they need me, but I am starting to really not care seeing as they did wait to the last minute to have us pack and we have been so short staffed that we havent even had time to get our regular work done let alone packing up stuff. So, we’ll see how I feel tomorrow….I am looking forward to a nice night’s sleep but after last night I am not sure if I will get one.
I am so glad that Dean is being so caring about how I feel, tonight he had to go to a meeting at the theater and told me to lay down and dont get up until he gets home. Last time he said that I did just that except for the fact I got up and took a nice long bath. But today I feel like I have just too much to do around the house and plus I need to go grocery shopping. So I think I’ll run a few errands and then head to bed for the evening. Because tomorrow I have to work, go to the dr, and then go to a board meeting for the theater after work. So I better rest up now….
