WORK!!!



I love my job. Usually. For some reason today, I felt like I was sleeping on the edge of a precipice and rolling the wrong way. Today was my short day - I love my short day, but I went in four hours early to work overtime. I was kind of tired this morning - because my body knows that on day four I get to sleep in. My 6:00 lineup started it off (it's what I call my menopause group - cuz they are all the ladies with huge seniority so they get the good days off). It just seemed like they were doing everything they could to push every button I had. I lost control of that lineup withing a minute and a half. I have a standing rule, no discussion of politics or religion in lineup - my opinion is that they are both inflammatory subjects that can get people's defenses up. One of my menopausers couldn't get "change the subject" through her head when she started talking about a political issue. It went like this all day.

There are times I feel so ineffective. The days I have no control are the days that just set me on edge desperately. Am I so much of a pushover that people feel they can just walk all over me? Do I deserve such disrespect that when I tell you to stop you feel that you just can ignore me - GEEZ - I'M YOUR FREAKING SUPERVISOR FOR HELL SAKE, THAT DESERVES A LITTLE BIT OF SOMETHING!!!

Today was just a bad day all together. I am now off for a few days, so, hopefully I'll be better when I go back. It's either that - or a couple of people are going to get me to that point that not many people see and once they do, they never wanna see it again - only a few people have seen me THAT MAD!!!

I'm done with my vent - tomorrow will be a better day. It's my grandson's fifth birthday. It will definitely be a better day.

    Hmm....no religion, no politics in line ups? I like it that rule of thumb. Hope you don't mind if I steal it from you. I agree, they're both inflammatory subjects and even when two people are of the same political party or same religion, there are still sensitive issues.

    P.S. This is Amberly (my name's shortened on my screen name)...hope you don't mind that I came across your blog, I love finding new/interesting blogs to read!

CoCo's Journey - How Did I Get Here??

Malabsorption - definition - Malabsorption is a state arising from abnormality of food nutrients across the gastrointestinal tract.  Impairment can be single or multiple nutrients depending on the abnormality.  This may lead to malnutrition and a variety of anaemias (blood disorders). I have heard the term before.  But the first time I had heard it in response to me was a little over a week ago.  I was with my roommate daughter at her appointment and her doctor pointed to IVY and said, what's up with that??  So I told him.  And he said, people have no idea how hard it is when you have malabsorption.  People think you can just eat to make it better, but you can't. So let's go to the beginning.... If you have known me at all in the last few decades, you know that I was "morbidly obese".  I topped out at 245 pounds.  I had Type 2 Diabetes, high blood pressure, thyroid disease and stomach issues (gerd) for the last couple of decades and had taken...

CoCo's Journey - Answers!! Finally!!!

 Today I finally got answers!!!  I do not have Cirrhosis!!!  I am Pre-Cirrhotic.  Very close to that precipice but still not falling over the edge and falling into a place that I cannot get out of.  I had seen my gastric bypass doctor a while ago - and was given the wrong information.  I think he was looking at the headline and had not read the story.  It's something I'm good at, too.   My doctor explained that when I was overweight, the fat in my body was damaging my liver.  Then I had gastric bypass and that should have helped my fatty liver.  But, then I wasn't able to absorb the calories, so I became malnourished. My liver was not getting the proteins I needed in order to supply my body with the proper nourishment.  Every organ you have needs protein, and it starts in the liver.  So - the malnourishment started to affect my liver.  Leading to the state I'm in now. The thing I need to work on is getting off the diu...

CoCo's Journey - An update -- of sorts

 I was asked for an update.  So - I waited until my last appointment with my liver doctor to see what he was going to say.  What we were going to do.  What the hell is going on.   So - a little recap.  Mid August I was admitted to the hospital due to liver disease.  The initial diagnosis was cirrhosis of the liver due to malnutrition, which was caused by malabsorption. After a biopsy, that diagnosis was changed to pre-cirrhosis.  I had over two liters of fluid removed from my belly by needle aspiration the first day.  I left the hospital five days later with a PICC line with IV nutrition.  IV nutrition supplemented my regular diet for four months.  My PICC line was removed in December and now it's a matter of how my body adjusts as to what the steps are. Since August and having the IV nutrition, I gained over 40 pounds.  I was a little over 140 pounds when they disconnected IVY (my PICC line/nutrition/bag - that's her name...
