The worst week

I have had the worst week. Wens. day I failed out of my RN program because of one math test you had to make an A on and I didnt. So that alone has turned my world and plans upside down. Then today I had blood work done about 9am. Well my blood pressure was 150/97, so I was already not feeling well. Then was headed to school to take a mid-term. Ate something while driving on the way to school, and started to feel sick. Well then I started throwing up in 4 lanes of traffic. At first it wasnt bad, I had a bag in my car and got sick in it. Then I started to get really sick. I was trying to find somewhere to pull into to but I was in the left lane trying to get over with traffic crazy. I looked down for a second, out of instinct, to get sick and before I knew it BAM! I wrecked into the back of a silverado. I was balling at this point. The guys in the truck were so incredibly nice. They thought I may have been pregnant because they saw me throwing up before I hit them. Then my door wouldn't up. So that made me even more upset. The police officer got it open for m though. I finally calmed down enough to call my mom who was way past hysterically scared. It was my first accident and I was an hour away. She got there in 30 mins lol. The EMT came and at the time I was so shaken up, I really wasnt hurting and didnt want to go to the hospital. On the way back home though I started hurting in my hand. I went and got it checked out and they think I jammed or fractured it. Its swollen big time, and is wrapped up, with my holding a tape roll, so it can support my thumb. I go in the morning to get x-rays to see whats wrong with it for sure, and to get back my lab results. My car is totaled. All it did to their truck was bend down the bumper a little. Both airbags deployed, mine busted my lip open and I have whip lash but I got lucky. I swear the devil is really trying me this week. I'm feeling very tested at the moment. I know God has a plan though. I know I just have to believe & pray and put it in God's hand. I'm going to go lay down and try to feel better. lovelovelove -Courtney




The end result.....

Rodney Atkins- Going through hell


Well, you know those times when you feel like
There's a sign there on your back.
Says: "I don't mind if you kick me;
"Seems like everybody has."
Things go from bad to worse:
You think they can't get worse than that an' then they do.
You step off the straight an' narrow,
An' you don't know where you are.
Use the needle of your compass,
To sew up your broken heart.
Ask directions from a genie,
In a bottle of Jim Beam an' she lies to you.
Well, that's when you learn the truth:
If you're goin' through hell,
Keep on goin'.
Don't slow down:
If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Well, I've been deep down in that darkness,
I been down to my last match.
Felt a hundred different demons,
Breathin' fire down my back.
An' I knew that if I stumbled,
I'd fall right into the trap that they were layin', yeah.
But the good news is there's angels,
Everywhere out on the street.
Holdin' out a hand,
To pull you back up on your feet:
The one's that you been draggin' so long,
You're on your knees; you might as well be prayin'.
Guess what I'm sayin':
If you're goin' through hell,
Keep on goin'.
Don't slow down:
If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Yeah, if you're goin' through hell,
Keep on movin'.
Face that fire:
Walk right through it.
You might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Oooh.
Instrumental break.
If you're goin' through hell,
Keep on goin'.
Don't slow down:
If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Yeah, if you're goin' through hell,
Keep on movin'.
Face that fire:
Walk right through it.
You might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Yeah, you might get out,
'Fore the devil even knows you're there.
Yeah.
Ooh, ooh ooh.
Oh.

How bad is it doc?

So I went to the doctor friday to find out about my blood pressure. See high blood pressure runs on my dad's side of the family and on my last visit my blood pressure and heart rate was ridiculously high. Turns out the doctor thinks I have blood pressure from stress of nursing school(go figure). He told me I have no reason to stress, I started laughing.

Or that I could I have hypothyroidism. Which is an underacting thyroid. I'm hoping its that seeing that I have alot of the symptoms, like severe fatigue which is a big problem I have. Plus the doc tells me it sounds like I have a heart murmur, which I did when I was a baby, but the doctors said I grew out of it. Anyways I go thursday to get lab work to see whats going on. Every since friday I have been diagnosing myself and noticing every little thing like I'm have mad cow disease or something lol. Hopefully I'll finally get some answers. I'm 19 and my body is falling apart hahaha. Besides that everything is going pretty good. School is probably the hardest thing I've ever did, but God is getting me through it =)
