<u><b>F</b></u>lonase because the wonderful oxygen dries out your sinuses
<u><b>U</b></u>ltrase because your pancrease doesn't like working
<u><b>C</b></u>ipro because your infections decided to flair up
<u><b>K</b></u>ilograms because your weight is constantly monitored
The 4 items mentioned will be dubbed (f.u.c.k)

I'm not sure why, but today Mike (that's me) woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Is it because he's on his 6th day in the hospital again... after being discharged only a month ago? Is it because he's already gotten 3 IV's and nobody seems to be showing up to put in his PICC line? Is it because his nurse last night didn't know what the hell she was doing and came close to making him overdose on Potassium? Or maybe because she couldn't even draw blood afterwards without missing a few times... only to actually loose the blood vial afterwards and have to come back for more? Maybe it's because Mike was admitted with 16% of his lung function left?

Naa... that couldn't be why, that's all stuff Mike has been used to... right? I don't know what to say to all the minds that are reading this. I guess my lack of oxygen, motivation and energy is making all these "normal" things in my life seem a bit annoying.

Pills, IV's, Nebulizers, Chest PT, Bloodwork, D-sticks, X-Rays, PFT's, all in a days "rest." Isn't that what I'm suppose to be doing here? I'm finding that hard, seeing as how I can't get a solid hour alone in here. Sorry to sound like I'm not grateful for all the things that are keeping me alive. I am grateful for it all, it's just hard to stay focused sometimes.

In my opinion you have every right to vent and get your frustration out. I like your little analogy about the flonase, ultrase, cipro, and kilograms. As soon as i saw that ....i knew you were frustrated with the situation. Being in the hospital is upsetting but having inept nurses who seem to botch up as many things as they help with, makes it very , very annoying. Hang in there Mike.......... <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

You've got every right to vent. CF does suck big once and awhile (maybe most of the time). I mean think of all we go through. Venting is healthy, and being p*ssed off is normal. That's what this site is here for.
