Hello friends, this discussion will be about those really bad days you can have, that I had todya. It started with an early morning wake about 01,30. I was coughin so bad that I could not sleep. So I went up and worked online. Then I tok a bath about 05:00 and about short before 07:00 I tog the bus to my specialist dentist. Was take away a stich. I have had a very bad flu, and my chest was in pain becouse of all the couhgin I done the last five days, so I called to se if I could get an apointment with a doctor. But since I had, had those med before they only thing needed was a call and a doctor would prescribe the med for me so I could go directly to the pharmasist and pick it up. I made this call about eleven o clock in the morning. Went on the bus to go to my home town,( my specialist dentist is in another town ) to collect the med and then go home for rest. But, there was no med to pick up...it has not arrived yet. I went out for some window shopping very tired...tired indeed....went back still no med. I called my son up and said he could meet me at the police station to get his pasport done...their computer did not work today, it was out of order. Back to the pharmasist still no med...time no about three in the afternoon. Ok I thouhgt I might collect the prescription at the doctors office so I went to the doctor to see if it was there....there I finally find someone to talk to in person and she told me that about four a clock the doctor would start to do the prescription and send it to the pharmasist via computer....so me and my son took a cup of coffe while we wait...we had to wait to five a clock...finally I got my med and we could take the bus home...Feeling bad from the flu and very tired of a long, long day I am now exosted. Just a very unusual crazy day lucky it was a very warm and sunny one....now I am going of to bed..... Have you had days like this to??????

I'm so familier with those days that things just don't go right. It seems that everything you do just doesn't work for you. I know it's frustrating, but sometimes things are not in our hands, and we need to find a way to deal with them. Don't be frustrated because of that day. Just remember that there's a new day tommorow, and hopefully a good one. It's known that very often things aren't going right with medical help, and their way of work. It happens in my country as well, probably because of the pressure the doctors have from other patients.

the thin is I would not have to wait that long, if they just told me on the phone that the doctor would not make the prescription untill between 16 and 17 in the afternoon...then I would have known and be able to go to a friend or one of my sisters for rest while waiting...Anyway....I had a god night sleep thanks to the med and today feel a little better... Thanks for responding...

that's really a bad day you've had anette... considering you're still sick and you have to do all those things. i have had some bad days like that, and sometimes i get really crappy, i hate waiting for nothing. i always come on time and sometimes earlier, and to have made no progress with the day's schedule, is really a bad one for me. dont you have cellphones there where you can text your contact, then you'll know if you what you need is already there and you should be going and pick it up... you take a rest now noh... and will you sit still, and stop moving around... let others do the errand for a while till you're very very well. have you heard the news??? there's swine flu... =P kidding aside... just take a rest, rest, rest, till that flu is gone. do you believe in herbal medicines? if not, fine. but here's a suggestion, grate ginger root, and then extract all the juice, use the juice and have it massaged all over your back, legs, arms... do that before you go to sleep, and don't take a bath the next day, it will help to make you feel better. or you can drink it, about 1 or tablespoon of that juice depends on how strong you like ginger tea, add hot water, and sugar, the sip while its hot... that cough will surely go away.

My son want me to do it now, But I am not...I was just reading some emails...and look up my earnings here in mylot and write down this day of mine... Now my son has made our dinner for us so I better go of and try to eat that....and then I shore will fall a sleep. Thank you for the tip, but I do not have that ginger root at home, and there are no stores here where I live....and I will not, go back to town again...try it another time I shore will. Food, some med and then of to bed.

Ok, it is five thirty in the morning now, I had a very god night sleep...but still a bit out of sorts, and my head still in pain...but some pain killers and more med it will be cured. I have cleaned the dishes, it was needed to since we had no glas to use. But it was done..now, I have just payed my bills...so, as soon my son is on his way to school I will go back to sleep...feel sleepy...by the way, you know you are really sick when the coffee do not taste of a coffee lover like me.....

Wow, I'm sorry. That sounds like a horrific day. When a person is sick, everything is worse. My day wasn't very good. I knew I was moving apartments. I'll still be in the same complex, just in a different and better apartment. Well I had been trying to get them to let me move in last week because technically I was supposed to. Well, they said they weren't ready. So yesterday they tell me they are ready for me to move, and I only have two days to do it! I was like, what?! So today I am throwing things in boxes, trying to get things packed. I then trudge up the stairs to walk the bags over to the new apartment, which has more stairs. I do this for hours all with a messed up back. And in the morning I still have to get a few more things out of there. Then I went around to all the agencies that needed to know my apartment number had changed and there were several long lines. My day was definitely not as bad as yours though.

Lucky You, who do not feel like I did during that move...two days of moving is not enough. I know that for shore. I would have been stressed out. You really like to put things in boxes in a god and nice way so you know where you put different things. That will make it easier to put it up again. Now, you had to put anything in any box and just shift it. This means you have a mess to take care of....and if you would have felt like me now...lol...that would not be a very nice move. And not mentioned the clean of the appartment...wow..I would not have been a nice person to be around. Hope You got it Ok though. I am today feeling a bit better, not coughing that much...the med did the trick. God, if I got it sooner I would have been better faster. Anyhow. Today think about it, I remembered that I forgot to get some drinks from the alkohol store...But I will call my sister up and ask her to get some for me. My sister is getting married next weekend and tomorrow (friday), me and my sisters and some of her friends will have a little maid for her. I could use some god drinks after this week I had. You know when you a really sick, it is when coffee do not taste for a coffee lover as me. Then it is really bad. Have a nice weekend, and thanks for sharing your story with me.

YES,I always run into situations like this.Waiting for something while have something awful else.But I 'm very happy to see that you dan't let your mood down because of these things.you still enjoy the sunshine.We shouldn't be influenced by little staffs,should we? Having a good day is important,having a good mood is important much more.

To tell you the truth, I did not have the energy to get mad about it. I was to tired, fever and really needed to go home for rest. Getting mad would not have helped the doctor would not make the prescription earlier anyway...but the next time a do a thing like this, I will ask the person on the phone what time it will be done.....then I know and do not have to wait at all. Thanks for responding and welcome to mylot...
