1. Monday: Home. Sick.
2. Tuesday: Wife diagnosed with Lupus
3. Wednesday: Daughters with me in van. CV joint fails in a spectacular way; van towed to garage. Left axle and tie rod replaced as well. $750. Still, not transmission as first believed. And happened at 3 mph at gas station rather than 55 (65?) mph on county road.
4. Thursday: Meet with Dr. She clarifies that her diagnosis is preliminary; that as a family doc, she doesn't have the expertise. She thinks it's Lupus, but only a specialist can tell. Can't see specialist until December.
5. Friday Morning: Blood tests indicate it might be rheumatoid arthritis. Or both. Still can't see specialist until December.
6. Friday evening: Wife falls at work and hits head on wall. Spend evening in ER. All is ok, but she will have a nasty headache.
7. Saturday: Wife taking it easy. Me baking bread.
6. Final Binge Count: 0

Wow...victory for sure. But what a test.
ReplyDeleteDude, what a week (and that's a weak way of saying it... but wow). And WTG on the zero binges.
ReplyDeleteNice job on staying the course with food. I am thinking of you and your wife. I hope she is feeling better now.
ReplyDeleteack bud. I don't drop by much, but you sure had a heck of a week. I will keep your wife in my prayers. specifically that it is NOT lupus. Best wishes to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteThank you all. I would not wish to repeat this week. If you pray, please pray for Karilyn. Her fear is greater than she will say. For the rest who may not have such a practice, please, for a moment, keep her in your thoughts. I, personally, no longer pray, but she is most certainly on my mind. But I know it means a lot to her, both prayer and positive thoughts.
