Well..
Just like last semester in school, I passed out again, .. and again.. and again.. and again.. 4 times now in the past 3 days. That is why I decided to write again. Its pretty crazy, I was in the Emergency room on tuesday... had to go by ambulance... blah blah.. Glad i passed out where i did though i had the best of friends there to help me out and instructors and all that jazz. Idk what id do without my paramedic friends. Anyways... so what my doctor has been thinking is that the interferon and ribavirin treatment has created a long term side effects on my heart. So i need to go see a cardiologist on ... monday at 1:30 with st. paul cardiology. Im sorta nervous but at the same time hoping we get some answers.. Im sick of being this medical mystery. On a side note... i started a new job a couple weeks ago with a group home closer to my house and i also ride as an EMT with north memorial ambulance. I really love both things..
im so stressed with school and work.and on top of everything trying to keep a social life and look over my family. Going back to the health thing,... to go back to my last post on my thyroid problems, they seemed to have just cleared up itself so that was really a sigh of relief for me and my mom. I went and saw my regular doctor on wednesday and also passed out in his office... so im sorta on edge to if and when im going to hit the floor. Luckily i notice some warning signs like i get clammy, dizzy, heart speeds up, and then ill have stabbing chest pain and blurred vision... So when i start to get clammy i start acting upon it as soon as i can... Ive gone one whole day without passing out.
I just got off a 12 hour shift with the ambulance, i noticed a couple times i was goin into one of these... i guess youd call it.. episodes.... but i tried to just not think about it..
As of for the liver.. . everything is well... i think.. my liver levels or w.e are a little elevated... which is worrysome.. but.. i guess righ tnow thats the least of my worries. .. With school 4 days a week and working 4 days a week adding all together over 40 hours... its just .. crazy for me this semester... its really taking a toll. and again to bring up the whole social life. yeah not as great as it could be. BUT... i guess i cant worry about that... but who am i kidding, im worrying about everything..
Anyways. I guess ill update again on monday when i find out more..

Anna, you are amazing. You have such determination and spirit. This treatment for hep c is criminal. It leaves so many people damaged. I only hope that your side effects fade, and that your dragon stays asleep. Mean time, have some fun SOON. All work and no play makes Anna a dull girl. And tired. And then crabby.
