I was tired today. I napped a few times. I think I am dehydrated, so I have been drinking lots of water.
I am not a distrustful person, because even though some people will stab you in the back, they can be trusted to stab you in the back. Trust to me, has always denoted reliability. Some people are reliably mean, or conniving.
Do I trust Doctors? Yes, I trust them to put their children first, and to make enough money to keep their family safe and healthy. I trust them to put their children through University. I trust them to put their families before their patients.
This is why, when I am diagnosed with an aggressive, and quick spreading cancer, that the doctors go away for a long weekend. I also trust that if they cure me quick, and make me very healthy, they are denying themselves of income. In the financial and political world, conflict of interest is immoral and criminal. With the medical industry it is just the way things are.
Today I was supposed to see the Wound Care Lady. ( WCL). But just as I got to her place she called and cancelled. She rescheduled for tomorrow. She wants to dress my leg every few days, except when she is busy, then she says every week is OK. My leg dressing frequency is dependent on whether she can earn more doing me, or not doing me, at that time.
Tomorrow is a weird day for me. The procedure before a PET scan is different from something like surgery. They have many things that I need to do the day before the scan.
No fruits, cold drinks, sugars, or carbohydrates.
Allowed is protien, and some veggies. No carrots, pumpkin, corn, sweat potatoes, or peas.
Salad is OK.
Nothing after 22:00.
No exercises.
Coffee or tea is ok without sugar or cream.
So I actually don't have to change much. Today I ate:
Black coffee, and water, an egg and fish for breakfast, salad for lunch, and broccoli and fish for supper.
All that makes tomorrow different is the WCL , and no snacks.
