Title: terrible day
Post by: boxman55 on September 15, 2008, 03:14:51 PM
My bus was late to pick me up for dialysis this morning and then they inflitrated me with the Venus 15 gauge needle and blew my arm up. Then because I was late getting of the machine, my pickup bus left and I had to wait 50 minutes for another one and while I was waiting, for some reason, my big left toe started screaming with neropathy (sp?) pain that came and went but wow was it serious when it started. It would only last a couple of seconds each time but man...  :rant; Boxman

Boxman, I'm sorry the day went so bad.  You never complain but it seems like you really deserved to rant today!  Hope the arm and the toe start feeling better.    :cuddle;

Tomorrow will be a better day.      :beer1;

Again thanks all, I do feel better this morning. I took your advice and went to bed early with a couple pain pills. I did wind up dreaming not about walking on the beach but about an old high school girlfreind. I would tell you about it but, If I did, Sluff would take my Moderator keys away.  8) ...Boxman

Puts me in mind of the old Everly Brothers song of 1957.  Anyone else remember.....Dream, dream, dream


All I Have To Do Is Dream lyrics

* transcribed by Frantic Freddy *
EVERLY BROTHERS - ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DREAM (1958)
Dream, dream dream dream, dream, dream dream dream
When I want you in my arms, when I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do, is
Dream, dream dream dream
When I feel blue in the night, and I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do, is dream
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine, any time, night or day
Only trouble is, gee wiz, I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die, I love you so, and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do, is
Dream, dream dream dream, dream
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine, any time, night or day
Only trouble is, gee wiz, I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die, I love you so, and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do, is
Dream, dream dream dream (repeats out

I hate days were Dialysis rules and ruins everything.

Sometimes when I come in early on Saturday's I see the people in the wheelchairs waiting for the bus.  Sometimes they wait for more than an hour.  That's another aspect of your life where you don't have control and I can understand your frustration.

That neuropathy you're talking about is starting to hit me too after four years of Dialysis.  Sometimes it starts at my toes and works it's way up to my lower leg.  It's especially bad in the morning for some reason.
