Doctor's appointment

Today I went to see my doctor. My asthma wasn't that good and I also discovered my curve looked like COL which isn't good.

He thinks my aches right now in the shoulder and the swolling I had on my wrist and foot before is due to my situation. Also the fact that I have gained weight without eating more is due to this. As I might have said before my body is made for the stoneage and not modern times. I asked my doctor if they had a pill I could get to make my body realize we are in the 21th century but he only laughed :-)). So I have to live with this until my situation gets calmer and my body finally will realize there is no war nor any danger. I will however take a cortison-cure that is start with 30 mg and slowly go down til zero. And I also got a new medicine Cymbalta which is supposed to take away pain and also in a small way tell my body it's modern times now ;-) I sure hope it will work.

Mom is worse again and I think it's because the trauma of felling out of her bed and breaking her hand as well as dislocate something in the hand (they didn't tell me exactly). They did of course take her to the hospital for X-rays and plaster but today she got worse and wouldn't go out of bed and she couldn't communicate with them.
They then wanted to take her to hospital but I said NO. She is to stay where she knows the staff and where she feels safe. This is her way of dealing with the pain. And I told the nurse that she's like a baby unable to communicate what's wrong with her.
Aren't trained nurses supposed to know these things??? Is it really my role as relative to tell them how to treat my Mom. They just gave her Alvedon!! For a broken and dislocated hand??? Anyone with common sense could tell that this wouldn't be enough. So now she's on morphine. Finally and maybe now she can be calm and without pain.

I wonder how everyone that doesn't have any relatives close. What kind of treatment do they get?? I hope my boys will speak for me when or if I'm not able to myself.

Take care, Love you all (you know who you are)

Recap of the week

This week meant a lot to do and I'm afraid I haven't taken the time to write here :-( But here's a recap of what has happened. Monday and Tuesday not very much but I was so, so tired and my joints does not like this weather at all. I have so much pain especially in my hands and fingers which makes it hard even to write here.  On Wednesday I went to Norrtälje to my good friend Anne for some treatment, which was very much needed, lots of chat and also a very good lunch. It's always a pleasure to see her and we have so much to talk about all the time. A true friend who I'm so grateful of having. Next day it was time for work and after that directly to the working committe in the Rheumatic association. Afterwards also meeting in the foundation, where we grant money to people who have applied, and fulfill the rules of the statues. When driving home again at night, it's so dark now and I hate driving in the dark, there was an accident with a big truck a...

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.
