Maybe It's A Curse.

So, guess where I ended up today? At the doctor's office for a bladder infection. Last week I felt the symptoms coming on and drank cranberry juice like it was nobody's business. I started feeling much better and went on my way. This morning I woke up with some pain and again started downing cranberry juice and water. Around 12:30 I felt like I was in labor. It came on so sudden. I was in the bedroom floor doubled over in pain crying like a baby and saying some not choice words. Alberto was sleeping on the couch (his pills knock him out). Not that he could have done anything since he is still having some trouble getting around. I tried calling my doctor's office, but they were all at lunch. They really should stagger their lunches so someone is always around. I wasn't sure what to do, but knew I needed help so I called Robin. Robin is my one and only true Oklahoma friend. Thank God for Robin. I don't know what I would do without her, especially this last week. I called her crying asking if she could come and get me. I knew there was no way at that point I could drive. She told me about the Minute Clinic at CVS and said she would come get me. After a little while longer of gulping down water and one good long pee, I felt a little better. I hopped in the car and headed to CVS. It's just right down the road. Of course, when I got their they were gone to lunch too. I wanted to scream!! Luckily the nurse came back early and was very apologetic. She had me in and out of there in 20 minutes. Less time than it would take to go to the actual doctor. She said I have an extremely bad bladder infection, one of the worst she's ever seen. I had blood in my urine, super high levels of infection, and I was dehydrated. I wonder where all that water and cranberry juice has been going? Funny to me that I would be dehydrated. Anyway, I got two prescriptions and am now feeling a bit better. I kept waiting to push out a baby the pain and cramps were so bad. Now Alberto and I can both be gimps together tonight. Never really thought much about believing in curses, but I'm beginning to think someone put one on us.
