Subject: my day in the er today.

last night I was having chest pain ( just weaned .5 taking me to 20 in the am 2.5 in the pm. my weight shot up from 344-356!!!!!!in 4 days. My bp finally is a little elevated. Hey I would rather have that then it being 80/50 any day. sugars 250 and under usually 150 at bedtime. I dunno what the muscle thing is that is going on I am having a hard time dealing with the fact that I was driving and swimming and walking just a mere 7 weeks ago! Now since the weaning too fast fiasco/adrenal crisis, I am having headaces even more blurred vision and have lost upper and lower body strength big time and feel like I am going to have a seizure? random thoughts that make no sense have been going on since the adrenal crisis I just keep saying each day it will get a little easier but so far no go. I don't want to go any higher on the roids but I want to be able to move again..... went to the er no answers, other than maybe its a uti they didn't do an ekg but did do the heart enzymes and said I wasn't in heart failure. sodium was good that is a first and potassium was a little low but no where near the 2.2 leve a few weeks ago. I have bumped up the potassium. I dunno I am sooooooo frustrated. Why can't I just get sick and wean off this crap without it doing all the other stuff during the wean.
