With the change in yesterday's Medication, I thought for certain that I might have a half decent night's sleep, but that didn't happen. Instead, I went back and forth between my Recliner and Bed in hopes the next time I closed my eyes, I'd actually sleep. With less than Five Hours of sleep, I finally just started my day by 7:00. The reason was simple, it takes time for medications to do their job, and this latest one was no different.
When I saw the Doctor at the Walk-In Clinic yesterday, the Cyst under my arm had grown to over an Inch in diameter. By the time I went to Bed last night it had grown to over Two Inches in size and the only thing I could do was to take an extra Extra Strength Tylenol in hopes of sleeping. When Kathy joined me at 8:00, we were talking of going back to the Walk-In Clinic, when it happened. The Cyst had grown to the size of an Orange, with the Pain to go with it. Suddenly, my T-Shirt was sticking to my skin, the Pain started to subside and the Odor from the Puss had us both gagging. Luckily, it was all contained on me as I headed for the shower to clean up.
Even after washing up, spraying it with Hydrogen Peroxide, covering it with Guaze and changing my Shirt, I still smelled. It was probably the odor that was stuck inside my nostrils. With more drainage to follow, I changed the dressing and my shirt another Two Times, through the day. Each time the Peroxide looked like a wintery white scene, as the Puss continues to drain. As of this writing the Cyst is smaller than a grape and the Pain is diminishing.
Still trying to clean our Freezer, we enjoyed Lazy Man's Cabbage Rolls that our daughter and son-in-law had dropped off a while back, for our lunches. There was no way to eat it all then, so it joined the Frozen Food section of the Fridge. Slowly it is being enjoyed and there is still more.
The Pharmacist finally called back, telling me I could actually take Both Antibiotics at the same time, because they both treated something different. I'll wait and see about that one.
Suffering from the lack of sleep, it was a struggle to get caught up on my morning reading.
Having read last night's Blog, our daughter Karen called while on her way home from work, asking if there was anything we needed help with. We truly appreciate any help we get, but we also have to be self-dependent.
After watching the "6 o'clock Local News" we shared the last Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Three Meat Pizza for a late supper.
With the Dishes all clean and put away, we watched "The Pitt" before watching the "11 o'clock Local News".
Think I should be able to sleep tonight.
