To the Queen of the Badass Posse, and my star sibling... have a very happy birthday. May you have a year filled with English delights and lots of good liquor. ;P

drug dreams

Monday, January 30th, 2006

OK, so I'm basically still alive because I'm heavily medicated. I have three bottles of pills next to my bed and I take 'em all.. and I'm still, as the coworker put it, miserable. But I'm having incredibly hysterical dreams—we're talking doozies here people. The best one was earlier today. I ...

stupid white meat

Saturday, January 28th, 2006

No real update, just wanted to say hi and that I'm still alive.. kinda. And I'm eating chicken. Lots and lots of chicken. I had forgotten how much I really don't like the chicken. Sigh. My lab results apparently also said that my protein levels were way too low and they ...

23.4… or thereabouts

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

So my bilirubin went down... by .freaking3 or so. Apparently last week it was at 24.7, but no one noticed the typo. So maybe it went down by 1.1, but still... that's nothing. Everyone has reassured me that the reason the weekend was so bad (holy mother of drugs) was probably ...

the west wing cancelled

Sunday, January 22nd, 2006

They cancelled The West Wing. It was inevitable, ratings were slipping, etc., but it has remained my favorite show for a long time. I can't imagine that they could've replaced John Spencer, and putting someone else in the Bartlett White House would not have been half as entertaining, but I will still ...

google subpoena

Saturday, January 21st, 2006

So healthwise there's no update.. except that I'm grouchy because I don't sleep well. Yeah. In other news, this guy has kept me laughing for the past couple of weeks. Found him thanks to her of course. The evil phentermine spammers are back.. I'm getting about one a day. WTF? They're getting ...

24.1

Thursday, January 19th, 2006

Yes, my bilirubin's gone up again and I want to die. I thought I looked yellower... and I knew I was itchier, but I just thought that was because I had changed my meds. And my mom left today. I'm going to go cry now. And itch a lot. And then take ...

the specialist

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

Well, we went to the specialist yesterday, and if there's one thing I can say, it's that specialists make the world better. First, his office staff was awesome, and when I started crying because I had lost another 10 pounds (OK, but come on people, 25 pounds in three weeks? ...

19.1

Monday, January 16th, 2006

Bilirubin is now at 19.1, I had to honestly tell my mom that no, I am no longer a virgin and now they want to test me for HIV and send me to a liver specialist at a teaching hospital in Boston... if the MRI comes back with nothing. Kill. me. ...

yeah, so, no change here… how's it?

Monday, January 16th, 2006

Dad is feeling better, I still don't have bloodwork back (why they don't work on Sundays is beyond me) and I'm still itchy and yellow. Sorry, nothing much else to report. Except... so I've told my mom all about the Man (um.. hehe, love you), have introduced her to Desperate Housewives ...
