Today it has been one month since I got my PICC line in. I never would have thought I would be getting IVs twice daily for a month and thought for sure when I got it in that it would be a few weeks or a month at max but here we are. Hopefully I won't see too many more of these "anniversaries."
The past two days have been rough. I have been having bad headaches and increased nausea along with what I think might be some low blood sugar spells. I get shaky and weak and sweaty sometimes. I think maybe my blood pressure has come back down after getting off the prednisone and maybe I am just adjusting. I'm hoping that this is just a bad few days but if things don't improve over the weekend I may call my OB just to be safe or maybe just wait to see how my levels are doing when the nurse comes Monday.
Only a few more days until I start trying just one IV a day. I can't wait! I hate the morning IV because it means I have to get up earlly and time everything just right so we get it done before Jeff leaves for work and I also have to figure out how to squeeze in a shower and watch Ella in there so it just starts the day off on a not so good foot. I can't wait to just do them in the evenings for awhile and see how that goes!
