off to see the doctor
Yesterday, I had to wake Trish up early, 'cause I had an appointment with Dr. Anoushfer at 8:45, which is a hard time to wake Trish up. Car-girl called, with the concern that she needed to go to someone's court case for an hour, so after the appointment, I went to the hospital & drank iced tea until she could pick me up.
The news was good: the polyp that they removed was benign, but would have become cancerous, had it gone untreated. Since they removed it, all that's necessary is to have recurring checks every 2 years. They'll be mailing me a card when it's my time.
When I got home, I watched Battlestar Galactica on the skiffy channel, until Car-girl came -- & then announced that she was sick to the stomach. She had to pick up a chocolate milkshake at the Bear Creek Drive-in to see if that'd help, then to the gas station, as she was running on empty. We finally arrived at Pizza Hut, after dropping off the laundry, but then Car-girl went & yacked in the bathroom. I mentioned to Christy what Car-girl was doing, so we got a free lunch, but Car-girl wanted to lay down for an hour & have Trish call her when she needed a ride. Trish knew savage dread about this, as last time the call waiting kept her from getting thru.
So Trish finally got home safe, & I ran over to the drugstore to pick her up some more gi-huge bandages. She showered while I cooked our chicken, which had to go back into the oven -- apparently 60 min.s is too long & 45 too short. Trish did all the household chores, while I watched the BsG marathon, then was disappointed when it was over. We found one of those gossip channels -- kept men -- until bedtime.
Today we see Doc Larocque. Karen wants to be on the road at 8:00. Trish is sleeping, & will eat a light breakfast when she wakes up.
The Wikipedia website on oculogyrics has changed, & I suspect some Scientologist as having upped the list of meds that include this side effect to all neuraleptics (which they don't), & benzodiazepenes, which I don't know, I'm not a doctor, but I've never heard of it; benzodiazapenes are used to treat it. In any case, I'm going
to try to get off the haldol anyway, 'cause this is precisely what happened when I was on the pills.
& I had a fucking big depersonalization yesterday, when I was out with Car-girl, & a really powerful oculogyric in the men's room at Pizza Hut.
