This blog is basically to chart my progress in trying to lose weight...
This is a Record of my daily events including my family when appropriate for my other family members to see if they choose to.
This is my legacy, for my family to read after I am dead and burried. So, any thing on here is meant for them only and if it offends anyone, my apologies, but, its not meant for you and them
Chow for now...
May the LORD Bless all who see this.
I wish you well...

Blacked Out
Posted 12-01-2011 at 04:13 AM by woodworkingmenace
I took a sip of ice water, along with an ice chip from the fridge, (Doc told me to drink a lot of water, and ice is just frozen water, so, I let it melt in my mouth, and chew just a wee bit at the end of the melt).
All of a sudden, I started a coughing fit, and, I couldnt quit!! So, I grabbed my glass and spit the water and ice into it, and set it on my desk.
The next thing I know, I am coming out of a black hole, (when you sometimes get when your sleeping and wake up), but, I was WOOOZY!!! This time, it was taking me a long time to 'come back'...
I got scared and started shouting, and my Son and Wife heard me and came a runnin!!!
My Son reached me when my Wife came into the living room and she rushed to my side and they both lifted up my arms, because she knew I had 'gone out' again, (Im looking around, confused and babbling, because Im still in a delerium state-->unfocused eyes, heart rate beating up a storm, and fog-headed, and cant focus on the 'real World' as of yet).
Usually, it doesnt 'last' this long, but, this one must of been a doozy, because they had time to come to my side from different rooms, and I was still not completely out of it...(When I black out, I quit breathing!!! That accounts for the wooziness that Im mentioning).
My Wife said I almost had a session last night, coughing up a fit and couldnt stop, and almost passed out... I heard her shouting at me to sit up straight, and lift my arms up, and I did sit up straight, but, nothing was stopping the coughing until I got the mucus out of my lungs.
Whats really strange, with these three pills the lung Doctor gave me, I was feeling fantastic yesterday morning!!! My lungs werent 'raw' from coughing so much, so, I thought, WOW, Im going to be able to go to the YMCA by Friday... Well, last night nixed that idea..sheesh!!!
What was I thinking.. *sigh*.
Im going to give this medication a full five days, before I even think of that one again, and today, is only the third day for it-->might even give it a week.. Cause I dont want to go through that again, and scare the living daylights out of my Wife and Son again!!!
They wouldnt let me out of thier sight for a good 45 minutes
Afraid I would 'do it again'... After they went to bed, I had a few more coughing fits, and finally went to bed myself.
My Daughter, she came in after I was settled down, and miss all the excitement. Of course, everyone told her about it, and she said "Your not going to die on me, every time I leave the House are you???" I keep telling you my little Darling, only when the good LORD calls for me, will I be leaving this 'planet' and not before
!! Ive taken my meds, heart pills included before that episode, so, Im doing my part, to keep healthy, and Im drinking a lot of water with ice too!! Plus the occasional cup of coffee, (helps jump start my water pills, because its a diuretic also!).
Im missing my 'time' at the YMCA, and cant wait to get back there!
My feet are swelling up like the glove on a boxer, because Im playing my game, Evony, all day long... Though, I dont know 'why', because I spend all day on the computer anyways-->(still no pain when I sit in my chair, and I am heavily into pain abatement, so, I sit all day to avoid it!!).
What Im wanting to try out, are these new pain meds at the 'Y' and see if they will make me sleep as the Vicodins did... If not, then I will get a full script of them, but, I havent 'tried' them out on an empty stomach yet.
(I find, if I eat, the pain meds dont quite 'kick in', and I dont get the full pain abatement to really go into full exercise mode). Pain is a great deterrant for any type of activity...
Thank you my Son and Wife for coming to my aide last night, and answering my call
For now, I shall sign off for another day ...
I wish you well...
