Watching Barbary Coast.

I'd rather read Barbary Lane.

I haven’t read those in about 20 years.

Hoping to hear how Vixmom's Urgent Care visit went.

Funny you should ask...

vixmom · « **Reply #126 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:40:40 PM »

Vixdad insisted on driving me and I was too miserable to argue

vixmom · « **Reply #127 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:40:48 PM »

Fortunately

vixmom · « **Reply #128 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:41:23 PM »

They took me right in and started taking my vitals..

vixmom · « **Reply #129 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:41:36 PM »

BP 90/70

vixmom · « **Reply #130 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:41:46 PM »

Seems a bit low

vixmom · « **Reply #131 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:42:11 PM »

I start feeling dizzy and getting tunnel vision

vixmom · « **Reply #132 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:42:30 PM »

Trying to talk is an effort

vixmom · « **Reply #133 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:42:56 PM »

Nurse checks vitals

BP 76/40

vixmom · « **Reply #134 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:43:09 PM »

Everything goes dark

vixmom · « **Reply #135 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:43:35 PM »

Room is suddenly full of EMTs

vixmom · « **Reply #136 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:44:00 PM »

The ambulance ride was very bumpy

vixmom · « **Reply #137 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:45:05 PM »

We got to visit the brand new ER at the local hospital..

vixmom · « **Reply #138 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:47:21 PM »

Fancy sliding double glass doors with built in venetion blinds instead of the curtain that gave you no privacy at all

vixmom · « **Reply #139 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:48:25 PM »

Next thing I know I am connected to more wires than a marionette

vixmom · « **Reply #140 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:49:42 PM »

They hooked me up with an IV, took some blood , and EKG, a nasal swab and told me I was "under observation "

vixmom · « **Reply #141 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:50:30 PM »

10 hours, 2 EKGs, 2 blood tests and 3 IVs later they ruled out covid, flu and strep

vixmom · « **Reply #142 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:50:59 PM »

I had my money on strep or covid

vixmom · « **Reply #143 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:51:35 PM »

Apparently it is "a virus going around"

vixmom · « **Reply #144 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:52:04 PM »

And I was very very dehydrated

vixmom · « **Reply #145 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:55:36 PM »

I understand I scared the beejeebers out of poor Vixdad as while I was out words like "stroke" and "cardiac event" were being bandied about by the medical folk on hand

vixmom · « **Reply #146 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:56:09 PM »

Anyway I'm home now.

vixmom · « **Reply #147 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:56:23 PM »

Feeling much better

vixmom · « **Reply #148 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:57:42 PM »

I have promised to refrain from taking any more decongestant meds ( I took Alka Seltzer plus cold medicine 4 days in a row)

vixmom · « **Reply #149 on:** February 17, 2026, 09:58:43 PM »

And I have promised to drink water
