Had a huge tree in our neighbor’s yard fall on the power lines yesterday afternoon, cutting power until 3AM this morning. Had to sleep in Kid1’s room to keep her comfortable. She has a full sized bed but holy hell that matrice is not made for adults. I slept like shit (she slept great). My body still feels like trash. I also caught some new sickness after all the shit I was dealing with a month ago. Sore throat, runny noise, headaches, body aches. That was at the start of the week but mostly better now. Kid1 also had it. Fun times!

Ugh, that’s no fun. We’ve already been getting a little sick more often since our toddler just started preschool.

Any updates figuring out what you have?

One of the fun things about getting older is realizing I can’t just sleep on whatever surface I want and bounce back the next morning…

No idea what I have still. I’m 100% convinced I tore my hernia repair. I’ve had discomfort in my belly button area, it feels more solid then before. My blood work showed elevated white blood cells and my doc is having me see a hematologist. This seems to track with the fevers and doxycycline. I moved that rider lawn mower, probably made a small tare in my hernia repair, which became inflamed and caused my fevers, the doxycycline stamped out the inflammation, which lessoned my fevers. My discomfort is likely related to this tare. The doctor is also having a ct scan of my abdomen as well. They’re more concerned with the hematology report and its findings but I have a feeling its going to come back normal.

Well shit. What’re the options if you did tear it? More surgery?
