This morning all the residents came to see me and check me out and give me some instructions. They got my discharge papers all ready to go..wayne arrived about nine so were were all ready to go.
I had the house pretty much set up and ready to go..humidifier was ready and I just needed to organize my meds..I feel like I am pretty much taking meds all day long..I have pain meds, sudafed, and an antibiotic..plus a mouth rinse which has been unsuccessful so far..I haven't quite figured out how to swish around yet...especially since I can't really close my mouth..it is quite messy..
The first thing I wanted to do was take a hot steamy shower..it felt great and helped to clear my nose out...
So I will not give too many details..but I have to add that I do have the best husband..part of me having a hard time breathing is because my nose is so clogged up..and yes he has been charged with the task of keeping it nice and clean...not a job too many others would volunteer for...
I am still getting random nose bleeds which they says can last a few days. I had one last night and it kind of ended up blocking my airway so aging gasping for air in the middle of the night...this time it was Wayne's job to calm me down..
So I have already lost a bit of weight so I need to get on track with getting some calories today..the first two days I only had water..and yesterday managed to almost finish an ensure...today I have started with a protein drink and I have been able to move to drinking out of a paper cup instead of using the string so that has been a big help...
Ok time for some rest..swelling is definitely going down..and even since the first day the residents and Dr Taub mentioned how good I looked for all the work they did... today should be the peak of the swelling them I hope each day gets better...
