Monday, June 9, 2008 | A General Update story

I am still tired and still struggling to get up in the morning and get going.  Once I get going, though, I can go for a few hours.  Today, I went to the bank, then up to Kaiser to drop off my extension for SDI, then down to the Family Christian Bookstore where I bought Father's Day cards, a birthday card for my grandson, and an anniversary card.   Then I headed over to Toys "R" Us for a gift card for my grandson.  Then to Starbuck's for a gift card for my son.  I bought a DVD for my hubby at the Christian book store.  Hope he likes it.  I sure thought it'd be good. 

Talked with my new endo.  She thinks that perhaps the adrenal insufficiency  is due to too much steriod in my body.  Could be.  She wants to taper down the steriods I am taking for it, but I am concerned that if I am this tired with it what is going to happen without it.  Oh, well, guess we'll just have to wait and see.  God knows, yeah!  Surgery is Friday to repair the hernia.  I will have to up the hydrocortisone after that for a week or so.  So the tapering won't start until I am completely recovered.  Also, I found out that bowel movements can be difficult after the surgery of a hernia.  Not good since I live with constipation everyday.  I take alot of stuff t help me go. 

Barbara, the devotional is just right for my time now even more so with the surgery and questions arising.  Thank you so much for it.  I think I will print it and put it in my Bible. 

With all the surgeries I have had and all the hospitalizations God is the Only One tha has gotten me through with joy and gladness and stronger faith.  He is soooooo very faithful. 

I hope you all have a good day.  luv, d
