NO THROMBOSIS FOR ME!!!

i took a shower. thought you really needed to know that.
also...THEY TOOK OUT MY IV BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID I WOULD GET THROMBOSIS!!

That is why I took a shower. Because I finally could without plastic wrap around my arm.

My intake is listed on the front of my door in milliliters. They threaten to put the IV back in though so I am guzzling water like a pro / like I am scared to death of the IV. Finally I can respond to my emails without extreme irrigation irritation. I feel like running around! Excitedly. Because I don't have to drag a huge pump around with me. I'm going to wear real clothes today. Clothes that I wear all the time normally! I am wearing them now!

That said, I am still showing substantial cholera symptoms. The staff are hoping they will let up today but appear a little surprised that, even after my 2x daily dose of 500mg Ciprofloxacin, my symptoms have not let up to a greater degree. I definitely notice the difference though.

I named my IV pump 'Peter'. I don't know why. Maybe because it has the same first letter as 'pump'. We parted ways at 11:35am.
