25. UPDATE 12/11

Thu Dec 11, 2014, 11:25 AM

Dec 2014

Wife and I ran a couple of errands (exhausting to me, but I needed to get out) to get me a better pillow and the last of my prescriptions. She was driving my car and left the keys in the cup holder as we proceeded to lock ourselves out of our apartment. So we had a bit of an hour-plus wait for apartment after-hours maintenance to get here to let us in.

This morning I feel a little bit more clear and a bit more able to focus. I slept the entire night like a rock on my new pillow.

Still fighting some relatively bad edema. Bought compression socks and taking Lasix.
