So last night I was in the ER over in Coupeville (12 miles from oak harbor and a 30 minute drive) I think me and mike got there at 7ish maybe 8ish. We didn't leave until midnight. So this is what the doctors said, One of them said I have a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) that since i've ignored the worsening pain up until now it's spread into my kidneys. Does it sound like it hurts. That's because it does...My kidneys are incredibly tender and super sensitive to touching. I can't lie on my stomach cause my right kidney is the worst out of the two and the pain is front and alittle in the back. Can't sleep on my back because my left kidney and part of my right are in pain in the back. Can't sleep on my side because i'm a right sided sleeper...So all in all it sucks. I've been sleeping since 11 am as of Wednesday and I still fall asleep so easily even after having so many hours of sleep.

What the doctor (and a nurse) told me was that I was in the beginning stages of appendicitis. If you know what appendicitis is....Yeah I know, sucks....I still have symptoms of the flu and hopefully my kidneys will get better so I can return to work....In other news I got my raise to 15$ an hour. As well as starting on 11 hour shifts. It was originally 12 but if I wanted the 12 hours i'd have to start work at 5am, and well i'm not awake at 5. Well....I am but usually i'm in Mikes car asleep to work. So still i'm not truly awake.

So i'm going to go soon, grab my medication and pray that this can get better. Also hope tat my kidneys are still fully functional to process the medication....So yeah, that's how my nights been.
