Today's accomplishment.

[gridlore]

Had my teeth in for ten hours.

Doesn't sound like much, but with all the health problems and being home all the time it has been literally months since I wore my choppers on a daily basis. It takes time to acclimate to having big chunks of plastic in your mouth. Took vicodin to help with the transition.. not so much pain as keeping me mellow so I didn't start to gag on them.

Also tonight is the last Lovenox shot. I've had to use this instead of Warfarin due to the drug I was taken for the infection in my throat. I'm certain kshandra is just as happy about this as I am. Back on the Warfarin as of tomorrow, and I go in for a blood draw Monday morning. Yes, go in. Since I'm off oxygen and able to get around, I've canceled the home care nurse.

Have a phone interview for MediCal and food assistance on Monday. Hopefully we can get a quick resolution on those applications.

I should be OK for Baycon. I just need to sit and rest on a regular basis and be careful about potential falls and cuts. At least I won't be lugging around that bloody oxygen tank!

This has been your Doug Health Update.

This is Great news! I approve it... (Even though there is part of me that would have loved to see you beat someone half to death with the oxygen bottle.)

I wish you were All Better. But even this is Great News. Look forward to seeing you at Baycon.
We're gifting ourselves an extra day/night at the con and checking in on Thursday Night. That way I can open the fan table when I'm good and ready on Friday Morning without having to worry about con/hotel check in.
See you there!
