It seems like I’m still recovering from my visit to Red Cross.
On Friday I wasn’t sure if I should go to work, but did and then told the boss I was heading home. Came home and bought some dinner on the way and popped into the doctor to book an appointment (not just because of how I was feeling but because Red Cross said I should get a checkup). I came home and ate dinner then slept until 3:30pm when I got up to go to the doctor. He said everything was fine besides a viral chest infection (I had been coughing and phlegmy for a few days). He gave me some Polaramine antihystamines and sent me off. I picked up Sienna and we came home again. Sienna hasn’t been 100% either so we both had a quiet day yesterday.
Sienna woke me at 7am this morning as she’d been to the toilet and needed cleaning up. Looks like a bit of diarrohea. I cleaned her up and got us some breakfast and lay on the couch watching TV while she played. I kept falling asleep all morning and eventually Sienna fell asleep too. I turned off the TV and finally woke up at lunch time. I got some fish and chips out of the freezer and put them in the oven. Now I’m just watching some poker I recorded a week ago or so while Sienna sleeps. I’m still deciding if I’ll play poker tonight. At this rate I might give it a miss. I don’t know that I’m going back to donate blood ever again. The doctor I saw Friday said it wasn’t an allergic reaction to the anticoagulant but passed out due to so much blood loss. I don’t think the blood plasma donation is more than normal blood donation as they do it in three stages and pump the blood back into you.
