Does that make me feel old.....................naw. ;0)
What is dragging me down is hubby. sigh!
Again this morning , " I don't feel good."
I gave him Pedialite with his meds. Took his B/P 170/90 pulse 59.
This wrist thing isn't accurate, BUT it can't be that much off.
He feels dizzy when he sits up or stands. That very well might be causing this dizziness.
I asked him if he wanted to go to the V.A.Clinic here in town.
"What can they do for me", he asked. As soon as I spoke the words" they may want you to go in the hospital", I heard "NO".
My son texted his wife. Deb is an R.N. She suggested that by taking that PINK PILL it might make his B/P go down.
I went to his bedside and told him what Deb said. "NO" was his quick retort.
Son again texted Deb and her next question was " does he want to die."
I haven't gone to him and asked him that question yet. sigh!
He didn't want his coffee. Refused food.
Only a few minutes passed before I heard " ma."
Just went into him and he asked for his PINK PILL. :0)
I had told him earlier that he pisses just as much with it as he does without it. Guess that made some sense to him.
Whatever....I'll take it! I shit you not!
I'm going to go take my shower and get dressed. Never know if a hasty exit will be needed, but hopefully it is just this med that is causing his problems.
He brought it on himself. :0(
That's All Folks!

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to son!
Hard to take care of someone, who will not [or no longer can understand enough, due to strokes] follow what docs tell him to do.
"Today, Justice"
Happy Birthday to your Son and sending you hugs , i hope your Hubby feels better real soon !!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Terry. My friend, you just might have to go ahead and call an ambulance if hubby will not listen. There is something going on there. (((Hugs)))) You have the patience of a saint.

doesn't sound like he's competent enough to make his own medical decisions..
ReplyDeleteHappy BDay to your son. I'm sorry your man isn't doing very good. Hopefully, he will start taking the meds he needs and do better. :)
ReplyDeleteI know it can be frustrating when they buck you, tho.
I couldn't keep from laughing when I saw the name of your blog. My mother's favorite word was shit. I heard it all my life..:))...she's been gone over 20 years now and I'd give anything to hear her say it...just one more time.
