Life update{re-edited}
14 years ago
My life hasn't really improved much from where it was the last time. I've been having trouble with my health. My teeth have been a problem for me for a long time, this time there were al ot of complications. I went to go get my tooth pulled, but the infection is so bad that it couldn't even be properly anesthetized so that it could be extracted. They gave me keflex, which is the trade name for a cephalosporin antibiotic that would be used to fight the infection. I had an allergic reaction to the keflex, it caused rather.... "unsavory bathroom side effects". I decided to go to the ER the same night. I was admitted and found out that I had a case of rectal bleeding. It could have been anything, they gave me a sheet with all the stuff that I need to know and short list of what it could be. Me, being the hypochondriac I am looked up everything that I could be. Everything from hemorrhoids to diverticulitis. They prescribed me a NSAID, prednisone, which will help with my gastrointestinal tract problems. But it may be serious, in order to properly diagnose it they have to either give me a barium enema x-ray, which holds the risk of giving me barium poisoning, or a colonoscopy, which could perforate my colon, or some other part of my GI tract. All because my tooth is infected and they prescribed me a cephalosporin antibiotic.
What's even worse is I was let go by my job, apparently we had hit a "slow season". So I was let go, my honest opinion is that my boss didn't like me. I had worked there for almost a year busting my ass, all to be let go. I was just taken of the schedule, the last night I worked I checked the schedule since it was faxed over. My boss was out of town, he was going to tell me himself that I was let go, but he couldn't. So, "he told a chef to let me know." but none of the chefs working knew. They all tried calling him to find out what was going on, my boss wouldn't answer. So the head chef gives me my bosses number. So the next day I call him, he actls like nothing is wrong and gives me the whole "Oh I told Kazu to tell you since I couldn't make it into town to tell you myself". So I act all polite and shit on the phone, and act professional about it all. Only upside is, since I've been let go I can justifiably file for unemployment.
Since all of this, thankfully there is a silver lining. I am no longer living in my mates car. An ex-coworker that I am friends with was gracious enough to let my mate and I stay with her and her family. So thankfully, I have shelter, food and a place to lay my head at night. I've been staying here for almost a month and a half now. Thankfully they haven't given us the boot. In an effort to help myself, and them, I have applied for both Unemployment and EBT. I will be hopefully getting EBT, within the week since from what I can tell I spoke with my case worker and he said the card will be sent to me within the week. That way I can at least help with the food issue, we also clean house and help watch their kid. So I'll have a place til I can leave to Atlanta, as sad as it is to say it, I'll be glad to leave Savannah, there are things that I'd rather leave her and people and the things that they conjure in my heart and mind. It'll be good to move to a new place and just start over carte blanche. I'm searching for a job here in Savannah and in Atlanta as well so when I get up there I can hit he ground running.
Only downside is that the last check from my work I'll be receiving will probably go towards my medical expenses and prescriptions. What doesn't get used for that will be used to close the books with people that I owe in Savannah and getting my mates car in good running condition before we leave to Atlanta. Hopefully karma will shift eventually. Thankfully I have people who have been doing all they can to help me.
A big thanks to
muskyotie for all the financial support and kind words, and 
lead-fang and his mate 
magnumugus for spreading the word and trying to help me afford an oral surgeon so I can get the oral surgery and not have to risk taking the clendimyocin instead and potentially kill myself.
