Dying I tell you!
15 years ago
So, yesterday I went in to the doc to get a follow up on my diabetes thing and hopefully get off these meds. I'm only dietary diabetic and have been told if I lose enough weight, I can go back to eating normal. New Doctor 'cuz my old one fled the country. Seriously, she left on some sort of doctor's missionary work or doctors with out borders or something and didn't even tell us she was leaving. The new doc tells me that because I am diabetic, I have a weak immune system and offers me some immunizations. Hepatitis A, this year's flue, tetanus and I think Whooping cough. Sure, why not, let's avoid those diseases. So I have them stick four needles in me. Now my shoulders are sore and bruised feeling. Even worse, something they stuck me with is kicking me ass horribly! I'm listless, feel sick, get hot and cold flashes, feel nauseous, and weak as a kitten. On the way home from grocery shopping today, I panic thinking I'm having a sugar crash. Two tests with two different glucose monitors assure me that I'm fine. Immunization shots are not supposed to actually get you sick! Why do I feel like I'm dying? Bleh. Okay, enough whining...
In the long run it's probably worth it anyway. Best to be on the safe side an' all that.
Kinda weird that your previous doctor just up and disappeared though. X3
