Another day and I'm still feeling relatively good. I was more tired today and a little achy, but not bad enough to need to take anything for it (other than I'm taking my Claritin for a couple more days). I haven't had any nausea yet and most food I've had still tastes good.
I do feel a little "off"... like not quite normal but can't really describe it. Still drinking lots and lots and lots of water. Also I've been rinsing my mouth often with a salt and baking soda rinse that was suggested to prevent sores in my mouth. I have a nice bottle of it ready to go at my sink.
A nurse from MSTI called today to say she'd talked to my insurance and the approval for the nausea medication is still in the works. They told her it could take up to two days. (They are missing my sense of urgency here! But honestly, I can't complain, as far as insurance companies go, they have been awesome through all of this, so I will forgive this small issue!).
Since I still feel ok, the nurse will call me tomorrow and if the approval hasn't come in I will get a small supply so that I am prepared before the weekend. Of course I also have the stronger of the two anti-nausea meds already on hand, so I could always take that if absolutely necessary, too. It makes no sense... why they wouldn't have any problem filling that prescription but this other one (which is also cheaper) is the slow one. The nurse said it was great I wasn't having nausea yet and maybe I would be one of the really lucky ones who doesn't get it. That would be nice! I still want to be prepared just in case though.
I'm not working tomorrow and I think that will be ok so I can get some extra rest. I think there will be lots of resting this weekend. We will also have some fun visitors, as Manibhu, Clay and Miss Esme are going to be in town. I can't wait to snuggle that baby and see all the tricks she's learned in the last 6 months!
