 Posted: 02/09/05 - 09:09 Post subject: Things I don't like hearing "In case Abby is unconcious
This medicine at this dose, then call 911."
Abby has recently been diagnosed with an andrenal gland defecency due to her long term use of steriods.
One of the possiblities is that she could suddenly go unconscious. There is a medication to give in case that happens.
Sometimes this stuff just kicks me in the teeth. I wonder sometimes what else can be thrown at me. Which is part why I kind of laugh at people's trivial problems at work.
I was in the training class the other day and the nurse said, "are you okay with this" I said with what Abby going unconcious or this class. She chuckled. I said I am alright with both. We have saved her life a few times before .
Nice thing about the medicine is that I cannot overdose and if she did not need the medicine it is okay because it cannot hurt her.

Sorry to hear about the ongoing problems Joe.
Sounds like you have a good action plan, and that's half the battle.

Joe. sorry to hear but at least this seems like an easier thing and no concerns on math this time.
question, if she goes uncounscious does it stop her autonomic functions too?

Sometimes there's a heck of a lot more going on in people's lives that they don't share...sometimes griping about work is the only safe ground they've got...
Joe, you have a heart of gold and a spine of steel. That's why we admire you!
Abby's lucky to have parents like you and Robin.
