Finishing Up February
Had my monthly B12 shot and my annual visit to my hpt specialist. Everything is pretty much the same so I guess that is a good thing.
Left eye cataract surgery went well. Everything about the surgery went well except for when they went to put in the iv for anesthesia. It seems I have veins that are so small they had to use an infant needle. Even then it took six pokes to get it in. My hands and arms are covered with bruises. I am seeing improvement in distance sight and can't wait to see how distance sight is with right eye done.
I started eye drops in right eye the following Sunday in preparation for Cataract surgery #2 which was on the 26th. The problem with my veins and the iv came up again but this time it only took 2 pokes so not so much bruising. I am noticing that my distance sight in both eyes is improving by the day. It makes me happy that I finally got this done. I will still need glasses for close work but I have no problem with that.
B and I have been working on a plan to refill pantry and freezer now that groceries are still high.
I ordered Paczkis today from the local bakery for Fat Tuesday on 3/4 and B will pick those up that morning.
We had a wonderful warm up for 2 days with temps in the 40s and 50s. We loved it but knew it was just the UP teasing us. We are now getting 2 snowstorms back to back today.
March is coming in "like a lion" so I hope it goes out "like a lamb" because I have had enough of winter.

Good to hear your positive reports on the cataract surgery!
ReplyDeleteI have bad veins too. I had to have an endoscopy last week and they used the infant needle on me as well. But they did get it with one poke! :)
It's terribly windy in the lower peninsula today and supposed to be cold all weekend. I'm ready for Spring too!
Our March seems to be coming in slightly more wintery, but not really like a lion. I do hope that we do not get a major snow storm at a time when we want to visit Kris.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Hello! I am glad to hear your eye surgery went well. I know about the vein issues, and they are not fun. When I went in for one of my c-sections, the nurses took turns trying forever until my doctor came in and did it in one try. Stay safe a warm and cozy. Spring is near!
