WAS A NIGHTMARE!
ok my day started off late and in immense Stress....that starts about 6am......
Went to another Doctors appointment prior.... that made me late for the MRI, then MY Google Navigator could not understand my NYC accent and brought me to resurgence bank or a Company Resurgence in Dunwoody GA that had the Same number address of Resurgens on a similar name which made me about 20minutes late.....
so i'm highly stressed.....the parking lot cost money that i really don't have....... & i didn't have time to look for free parking either....
So i'm walking into the saint Josephs Hospital with a chip on my shoulder.....& this pretty girl leaving gives me that hi your cute smile.....& i gave her Drop Dead stare......
So i get in im first online everyone is waiting for me.........the nurses and doctors and Technicians.
Not that I'm here, all I'm thinking is that " i have to be done in 1 hour to get to work.....
the Table where an live ex-ray machine is being used to help to inject the Dye into my elbow is messed up and is not keeping my elbow leveled....
i have to sign a ton pf paper work saying if i have an reaction to the dye and DIE my family Can't Sue....
the doctor and live x-ray tech have full lead body armor.....& i have 1 sheet over under me belly only.
the doctor doing the injection dye said oops and sucks her teeth a couple of times.(as in an accident)
then the table messes up again the doctor asks me to change position of my elbow so she can get a better angle.
Then there is pressure pain for the anesthetic & then OMG pain from the dye
There was so much pain from the dye injection because it put direct pressure on the part of my elbow that is in pain which ( i think i know ) is near the nerve damage and problem area of my elbow..... which was extremely nerve racking because i felt it throughout my whole body.....
then POW Reaction from the DYE...
MY Whole body starts to heat up my skill all over start to tingle shake and burn a little. I break out into a complete body Sweat.....I feel like I'm gonna throw up but there is nothing in my stomach cause i didn't eat anything since breakfast at 7am. I am instantly dehydrated in about less than a minute. My Heart is beating like a heart attack & i start to panic and got an anxiety attack... All the Stress of the day hits me in 1 entire emotional break down. Every bad experience of my life came up & every mistake. I thought to Call my Job and let then know....but all my stuff is locked up and i cant make the call I'm in so much pain I don't know what to do.....the get my stuff out of the locked locker for me I make my calls in a panic......But i called my lesson at 330 and i was able to reach them in time so i was able to calm down....job wise....
...it takes me about forever to calm down ( probably about 10 to 15min.)
I go lay down in the MRI machine and the i have to lay in this machine like I'm swan diving into a pool with 1 arm.... My favorite movie about bicyclist "American Flyers ( staring Keven Costner )" did an MRI Line started coming into mind.....
then there is this big Fan blowing Part of the machine right into my eye Causing a tear that caused an amazing ITCH on my face for the next 45 min.... so I'm laying in a very uncomfortable position and cant move or take care of this tearing itch.....
I make it though the MRI...the technician say i did good and they got good images...but if i want a copy now i have to go through more paper work at another location somewhere up stairs.......
I still feel a bit discomfort....I think its from my reaction......very little stomach discomfort with little chance of puking.
I call my Client cause its 330 And my job is across the street...I get a Parking voucher from the clerk at the office desk...YAY! i get to the gate & still have to pay....... what the hell if the Voucher for.... 1 dollar off....big woop, but now i have to go digging thorough my bag for the original parking ticket......
I get to my Job, My Client asks to cancel, and at the time i was fine....but then I got sick again! took another 10minute break...Went potty made a dutty, feeling better, going to get the Cart of balls my 430 comes in i ask him to help out and play with the the younger kid who's lesson time was NOW....the 430 helps out....I'm going back to get the cart then BAM I get hit again with another stomach Cramp sit down on the floor where i was at i cant move......
after about 3 minutes I move to a near by lounge chair. and sit there about another 5min.... The Tennis Director comes by sees me sitting on the chair comes over and checks on me and say go home and take care of yourself & be sure to call all your lesson for today.
I ask my 430 to play with the kid for an our I will buy him lunch on Wed today 4/25/2012.
Make my phone calls and go home for the day......
the END....
NO not at all.....
I hit the bathroom again for about 30 min I will save you the detail........
if you have some questions please ASK!
I went out to eat at Sweet tomato for some light & good food... i ate salad, Soup, Bread, and some desert. That help out allot for the uneasy stomach. Then i was knocked out by 9pm
Comment
results of the MRI are IN.. stay tuned for the medical guessing GAME!
Ah, that dye reaction must've been gnarly! That's the contradictory part of medicine, isn't it? Well, hopefully they got an image despite all of your sufferings.
yeah mark at that point walking in was EFFEN get there, lets go, im late, i need to be at work at 3pm, I had to cancel my 330 and other classes for the Day....i was that sick. & Now even my elbow is feelong a little funny it seems that the dye or the pressure from the injections has moved ot change the injury in my elbow....i now have a slight pain in the area but all of my muscle in the forearm loss flexibility, feel stiff and weak & my hand feels a little swollen... but last night around midnight since yesterday was my first real day playing and teaching tennis, my forearm got stiff as a board. slept to 12 noon today... arm feels better.
Wow, that was a wild ride! I can't believe that you rushed back to the courts only to have your 3:30 cancel like it was no big deal! I also like the part about the girl flirting with you - little did you know what was in store at this point.
Man, sorry it's been so tough on you V. Take care and I hope you get better soon.
Dear HAL... Where was your injury at? and how long were you dealing with it?
I mostly believe that i had more of an anxiety attack than a reaction but the reaction is from the pain pressure on the injury after the injection....because I had a MRI on my neck back in 2011 January and that was toto copy you.....
was a piece a cake
i think that also came into my mind as well.... like "I dont remember this the first time OMG!"(while my body is shaking and sweating and burning)
Dang, sorry to hear about the MRI day, my MRI was a piece a cake if I remember correctly. In and out, no sickness and got take a quick look on the computer before leaving, hope all the rest goes better.
