Day 4 in the hospital. Left leg still red & swollen. Vancomycin cancelled & replaced w/2 oral antibiotics. My doctor started giving me 60mg IV Lasix diuretic for the swelling, now that my blood pressure is back up to something more normal. The floodgates have opened on that venue, and my nurse has to measure my, *ahem*, output for the time being.
Still having level 7-8.5 pain in my right arm. Getting Dilaudid for that - it does *some* good. Waiting for a dose now.

Hell and 1/2 way back! So sorry to hear. Hope you get a restful night.💜
@damselfly59 Thanks - I'm going to try sleeping in the recliner tonight. Laying down exacerbates my arm pain, since part of the problem is an inflamed rotator cuff.
@leejackson
Phew, rotator cup is manageable. Recliner over hospital bend any day. Aren't you supposed to be gearing up to hit the RV trail?
