Optimism

I am still going to write about the subject I thought of yesterday,
Well, that's NOT gonna be today!
Because... there's more bad news.
So I have to post the latest 'news' instead.
I stopped at the Doc's office to pick up a new prescription for pain killers,
since I'm due for a refill to quell the feeling of having a hole in my knee..
Now, you say, "So, what's the problem there?"

I refill at the drugstore without incident.
I get home and there's a message on my cell phone.
It's the the Doctors office saying, in an urgent voice:
"Call the office as soon as you get this message"
"Dr. X consulted Dr.Y on my knee infection and has news"
Well, needless to say it upset me until I called the office.
After the phone call I was even more concerned.
The culture came back on the 'stuff' taken out of my knee.
It's a staphlococcus infection which is resistant to normal antibiotics..
translation.? (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus)
If I don't get treatment immediately I could get a life threatening infection
which could possibly kill me or put me in a seriously unhealthy state.
It doesn't matter to me, I'm going with the flow....

because, I'm Optimistic!


Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to post up my 'good' blog entry.
