Well my hand still looks like crap...so far I have called my dr. 3 times, talked to her nurse twice and called the dermo once...on top of all that I also have my dad trying to pull some strings to get me into another doctor....the dermo is still saying they do not have my cultures back...liars. My doctors nurse got a hold of the lab where the culture is and they said it was coming back "no growth"...that is total bs, there is definitely growth on my hand...why didn't the dermo just tell me that? Bastards...there is nothing worse than being borderline lied to by the people that are supposed to be on your side. So I am abandoning the dermo helping me, and going with just dr. adam...she has a call into the infectious disease people at another hospital to get me in tomorrow...maybe they will have a little urgency in trying to help me. I am going to send dr. adam's nurse a present...she has been so helpful and I have been so annoying...I can't decide what to get her, I don't really know her...maybe a spa treatment? chocolate? By the way I just got done eating an a load of ice cream...my slogan for the rest of this pregnancy is "when life gets you down, eat ice cream"...can't hurt right? well with me it might...I better take it easy with use of my new slogan.
