drinkingdinos

So I officially have a week now which I'm thrilled about, but most of my symptoms remain unfortunately. I guess I hoped they'd go away...quickly. I went to see my doctor today finally & she said she couldn't really do anything cuz she's just a pediatrician. Not helpful. She wants me to get some blood work done & check back in after a week. My blood pressure was slightly elevated and they said I have a mild temp of 99. Should I be worried about that? I don't feel like she took the drinking aspect of the visit seriously. I need help now, not months down the line. Ugh. I think I'm going to call off work this weekend. I can't work like this.
On another note I found an aa meeting that I sort of like. Might go back. Not sure what to do cuz I'm not entirely sure if this alcohol issue is really a lifelong problem for me or not.

Give your mind and body time to recuperate Dinos - a week is awesome but it will probably take a little biu more time to feel; really good

I recommend you move on up from the paediatrician too. Find a Dr who's dealt with alcoholism and addiction before.
