Hey everyone, I just wanted to give people some updates on what has been going on with me..
Well, as of yesterday I finished my last 2 Hypobarics treatments yay!! Its where I went and layed in this machine and it went down in sea level and my ears popped and it filled my sores with 100% oxygen and took all the bad crap out of it.. I had to do 20 treatments of them and ur in this machine for 90 minutes.. and there was only the 1 time i over heated in there and sweated so bad and got really light headed and a fever and really pale and my eyes started to go in the back of my head that they had to take me out after 70 mins otherwise i have lasted the rest of the time.. The sore on left knee is healed quite a bit ,but its still there its just small.. Then the one on my right knee is getting smaller its just pretty good sized still so they do that dressing changed 2 times a day.. Then the one on my right thigh is still very big it has only gotten smaller by like a half an inch or so and its so deep that you can still see the muscle behind my thigh ,but they are doin the dressing changes 2 times a day and its draining quite a bit ,but its better to be drainging then not draning at all.. They have been messing with my pain meds the last few days because I have been takin a pain pill and some of the time I havent been able to last the 4 hours without being in pain again so they changed my stuff.. Before my 2 dressing changes during the day my 1 in the morning and the one at night.. They give me 2 cc's of iv pain meds of dilated <spelling bad> before the dressing changes and that gives me a little bit of pain relief before hand which is kinda nice.. Then I have a pain patch for some pain relief and it was 50 mg ,but they upped it to 75 mg and every 3 days they are goin to up it till we find the right pain relief.. and then I have a pain pill of vicodine that was 325 mg ,but i have only been able to take that pain pill every 4 hours and that has helped ,but the pain has come back before the 4 hours are up so they changed the vicodine from 325 mg to 500 mg to see if that would help with the pain relief.. So, far I have been able to last the 4 hours without other pain stuff and sometimes a litte bit longer then the 4 hours also.. They also have me on iv antibiotics.. I have 1 antibiotic i take 1 time a day and another antibiotic that i take 2 times a day along with some sudafed to try to clear out of my ears since the hyperbarics really plugged up my ears a lot and were tryin to get them to drain.. and I have been taking my iron pill for my anemia.. Well, I guess thats all the updates i have for now ,but I will try to update everyone again in a few days if anything new goes on.. I have my cell phone here for anyone who has the number can call or text me.... I miss all of you a lot!! ~Ash~
