Today, I woke up with a horrible stomach ache...not too unlike the early stages of peritonitis. But, my drained "magic soup" is still clear--I think. I don't know. Sometimes it looks cloudy from different angles, but clear from others. I'm getting scared. The discomfort wore off after my first "PD" exchange, so I'm not too worried yet. I'd better NOT be getting peritonitis again!!! I've had that twice, and believe me, it's hell!! Besides, I follow the procedure to the letter. I NEVER skip anything. How could I possibly get peritonitis already??? I couldn't! There's no way!! I'm determined NOT to!!!!
You know, this is all such hard work...I really wish we "PD" patients, who do their own treatment at home, could get a damn certificate...so that we'd then be certified "PD" nurses!!!! I could live with that! I could make a career out of that!!! Hell, why not... It seems like that's all I have the energy to do anymore...so...why not...
In case you didn't figure it out, that's almost all that I've had the time or the strength to do these last couple weeks. And yes, I'm damn sick of it already!!!
But...am I gonna let it get to me? I hope not!
Must run for now.
Till later, my darling gator!!
