Set back today. I had my URJ class at 10am and really wanted to attend it, so just listened curled up in bed with a heating pad. Taking amitryptiline and benadryl to try and sleep. So depressed. So so depressed.

I took those pills last night and woke up to pee, and next thing I knew I was waking up on the bathroom floor. The next day I was in bed taking Vicodins. Scared, worried, and in pain. Horrible. I got an appointment to see a urologist on Monday the 13th so I was hanging on to that hope that he would know what this is.

I had a meeting on Zoom today and did OK, but I was not doing well. I was thinking maybe I had an antiobiotic resistant UTI. I decided to cancel my walk with LK the following day. I sent Dan to Wal Mart late at night for this but they did not have it. I was desperate.

Tuesday, I'd been on Bactrim for 24 hours and was worse. No sleep without a sleeping pill. I was taking cranberry pills and drinking water and eating a lot of potatoes.

Friday of Chanukkah, I made challah bread but did not feel well. There was an online department meeting today, and I ate a ton of this bread. I was taking over the counter meds like Azo antibacterial and cranberry, thinking I had a UTI and would just push water and clear it up.

Last day of feeling well before the illness. Dan and I went out to dinner to celebrate our 36th anniversary.

We went to Smith Mountain today to hike.
I hiked half of the loop then went to a yarn store in Dadeville.
Then got lost for 45 minutes driving around the countryside.

So this happened today. I tried to shut the lid so Teensie wouldn't scratch it, and ended up closing it on the dongle. Don't do that.

Mom is in the hospital for a blood transfusion. She got anemic from blood loss due to a bleeding ulcer. I had to call 911 and get an ambulance to take her. She could not stand without passing out. It was so scary. But she is fine now with more blood.
