My parents are driving me to the hospital today to get another body checkup and more blood work done. My doctor is out of the office and won't be back until Monday so I'm going to see another doctor for my health problems today. I have been feeling more and more ill all week and my pleurisy is back to giving me a hard time. The sharp pains in my chest along with my insomnia had me tossing and turning all night, and I slept only three hours.
I will be getting in the car in ten minutes and heading over there. I can't drive myself today. I have no energy and can't trust myself behind the wheel in my condition. I can barely stand up as it is. I'm going to recuperate in bed as soon as I come back home. I need to stay in bed today. Again.

Thank you. I am back now. I had my blood work done and will get the results in a week. I was not given new antibiotics for my pleurisy and need to take my current ones.

I am so sorry to read you are so sick. I hope the meds will help you and that you can rest today.

@MarieCoyle Thank you. I am back home now and getting rest in bed. The current meds aren't helping me so I went to the hospital to get myself checked out and get new meds. My current doctor is off until Monday and the new one I saw today told me to take my current meds and if they still don't work for me, I should contact my doctor on Monday when he is back. I am so upset.

Thank you so much. You are so sweet. I am back home now. I had my blood work done and will get the results in a week. I was not prescribed new antibiotics for my pleurisy and will have to consult my doctor on Monday. I hope I get some answers on Monday. I could really use some pain relief.
