Thank goodness it is Friday! Although waiting for my medical ride this morning was ridiculous, not fun at all as I did not get picked up until 11:22 AM, and then I did not get hooked up to one of the dialysis machines. I ended up dialyzing for two hours and thirty minutes from 12 PM to 2:30 PM before being unhooked, weighed out and 91.6, and headed downstairs to wait for my ride until 3:05 PM or shortly after 3:05 PM. It was not my day for waiting for my ride today—not that much anyway, even though I was patient waiting since today is Friday. I have a two day break from dialysis to return for another week of treatment Monday morning at 11:45 AM.
I have not really given an update this time since my week has not really changed much. I am in the 190-198 pound range of weight that is NOT acceptable in my mind and life. I NEED TO lose the weight that was gained– no thanks to Seroquel over a month ago. I have been weaned off Seroquel and put on Prozac at 10 mg two times a day for the first seven days and then 10 mg in the morning, and a week ago, Thursday, April 4, 2024 on a televisit meeting with Dr. Christopher Taylor upped the dosage of Prozac to 20 mg once a day. The med IS working well at this time even though during the during the past two weeks until April 9, 2024, I had a hard time with sadness because I misunderstood a very good friend of mine — Donna — not texting me for a whole week. With Donna not texting me back general texts as well was hurting me badly and so badly that I rode away from the building only a few feet from the door saying I wish I could live at a hotel for the remainder of my days waiting for my new apartment else where opens up. Whatever apartment–River Flats or Riverview Heights, and believe me, I will, those two weeks of pure sadness that was truly bothering me, without looking back and could careless of the tenants–even

I did not care who heard my words at that time.
Well…now the weekend is here. Yay! Until next week, more dialysis updates when a new week begins, and for emotional reasons, I AM NOT looking forward to another week at dialysis. Anyway, I have to get to Day 13 now. Goodbye for now, peeps.
