So I got a new nanny watch.


MOSOKI
Smart Watch for Men Women
https://a.co/d/dSdGNmc
For more info, see the previous post.
Part of my motivation for getting a new watch was that my old one had snapped the band. The other part, to be fair, is that I've been having a bunch of odd, non-specific symptoms. I have also asked my primary to do some bloodwork. She had no problem with any of the tests I requested. However, she had a feeling the insurance would be upset with a fishing expedition. So we broke my requests up into a couple of batches. Hopefully, as we move forward, we will have more clarification and a better idea of where to look.
For years, I have said that I have low blood sugar. I have gotten scoffs and derision from many, especially my family. My Dad's family runs to Diabetes and Pancreatic Cancer(and Heart Disease and any Cancer you can name) So me having HYPOgylcemia? F*ing Hysterical!🤣😂🤣😂
But everyone forgets my grandpop (Dad's dad) could pack away Tastykakes by the metric ton and never gain a pound. I don't know if he was ever tested. My Mom had reactive hypoglycemia. Basically, it is pre-diabetes. Your body doesn't handle sugar well. When you eat your body overreacts and sends out too much insulin. This makes your blood sugar drop too low.
True primary hypoglycemia is unusual. It is usually caused by something. It is just a matter of finding out what is causing it.
My thought is that having an idea of when(and maybe what) is triggering the lows and or highs might be helpful. Even if the numbers aren't accurate, the same should not be true for the trends.
These newer watches are very clear that these are wellness devices only. That they are not meant as substitutes for medical care.They are not approved in the US for Medical devices. They are making these overseas,(*cough* China *cough*) where there are different guidlines for these types of devices. They do have alarms for danger levels like low/high blood sugar, High pulse, irregular heart beat, hypoxia(low oxygen in the blood) and sleep apnea.
That being said, it already has been and I assume it will continue to be increasingly more so incredibly fascinating.
My blood sugar, well everything, seems to randomly jump about, up and down, at the whims of a madman. My temperature is sharing Mother Nature's menopause.(I did think that was part of my own problems but blood tests have indicated that is not the case.
Whatever is going on, it is clear that there is SOMETHING, at least. That's progress.
Ask any person who has chronic illnesses. It can be hard convincing doctors to take you seriously. I've had my share of that. Most of mine are good, but sometimes they slip. I do understand.
I get the weird shit. Do you know the saying, "if you hear hoofbeats think horses"?
Well, when a new doctor or nurse gets smarmy and says that crap? I have a pre-programmed response.
I'm a pygmy zebra running down Broadway in the middle of rush hour.
Believe it or not, that actually came from one of my doctors. I don't remember if it was my first endocrinologist or the surgical oncologist. They noted that if something happens to me, it may not be fatal, but it will be strange.
With me? It's never horses.
Hopefully, with this watch, I will be able to find the hoofprints and estimate the size of the zebra and in which direction it is heading.





So for lows, I'm getting down to 95° core temperature and 59ml/dg blood sugar.
In the other direction, I had a temperature of 98.7° for a "record" high. and 130 for a high blood sugar.

Pretty and Smart

pairing: Wanda Maximoff x gn!reader
summary: Wanda has a fear of the dentist, but what about when she wants to start dating one?
warnings: mentions of drugs (anesthesia), swearing, injurys (tooth injurys), such a shitty ending cuz i'm terrible at writing endings, needles
a/n: completely inspired by the fact that i got three teeth removed yesterday and flirted with my 20 year older nurse lol. literally everything that Wanda says while waking up is from videos my sister took of me.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Wanda's eyes almost start glowing red as Natasha forces her through the medical room door. This part of the medical wing is filled with all types of necessities for a dentist to perform regular check ups, surjurys, or any other type of appointment that an Avenger would need.
Tony hired the best dentist he could find and that worries Wanda a bit as usually that means they’re pretty with no brain. That’s not the only thing that worries her though. Her long lasting fear of being put under anesthesia is coming out quite quickly as the time for her appointment to get two teeth pulled from inside her gums approaches. She locked herself in her room a bit ago, but she should have remembered that her best friend is a retired spy.
“Please just help me out here Wanda! I don’t want to be late to my date with Maria!” Natasha complains, practically shoving her friend through the door. “I thought it was bros before hoes Nat?! What happened to that?!” “We graduated from middle school Wanda! That's what happened!”
You’re filling out some paperwork when Natasha finally gets Wanda into the room, and the way you smile at her doesn’t help with the butterflies in her stomach. “This is my friend Wanda. She’s here for her appointment. Bye.” Natasha says before leaving, and Wanda is about to send a ball of red energy her way before the door closes.
Your eyes widen at her magic and she smiles nervously as it fades. “Sorry.” You chuckle, standing up from the desk and holding a hand out for her to shake. “You’re fine. What’s your name sweetie?” You ask, subtly leading her to sit on the chair. “I’m Wanda. Wanda Maximoff. And your…..you're the dentist Tony hired?” “Well yes. I work at a dentist office in the city and Mr. Stark came in looking for someone. I need the extra work. Sorry….I’m rambling.”
She shakes her head, sitting down in the chair as she smiles at you. “Don’t be sorry. It’s making me feel better.” Her nerves are slowly fading the more you flash your bright smile at her, but their right back when you pick up something from the side tray.
Your smile slightly falters when her fingertips start glowing red, but it stays in order to help comfort her. “You’re alright dear. It's just a pulse oximeter. I’m going to put it on your pointer finger in order to help me keep track of the absorbed oxygen into your red blood cells.” She doesn’t understand what that means, but she begins to slowly relax as you explain every machine you're connecting to her body. A blood pressure cuff, an ankle monitor to track her heart rate, a wrist monitor to do the same, and then you wheel over the IV rod with a type of liquid anesthesia that will go from the rod, through a plastic tube, and into her bloodstream in order to sedate her while you work on her teeth. The moment she sees the needle, her eyes flash red.
You scoot your chair back a little, a nervous smile overtaking you as you remove the needle from her eyesight. “Okay honey, calm down. It’s just a needle. It’s gonna be a gentle little poke and then a very tiny plastic tube is going to go in your arm which will let the liquid anesthesia flow to your blood and sedate you. That way, it only feels like you're asleep for one second and you won’t feel the pain.” She shakes her head, beginning to sit up until you place a gentle hand on her arm. “Miss Maximoff, would you like me to get one of your friends?” She takes a deep breath, forcing the red to fade from her eyes as she lays back down. “I’m a grown woman. I can handle this.”
You sigh, placing the needle down on the tray as you look at her. “It’s okay to be scared Wanda. In fact, I have many patients that come in here and get scared. It’s natural and you’re allowed to feel scared. Even superheroes don't have to be strong all the time.” This brings a small smile to her face, and she nods.
“Hold my hand? I’m kind of nervous.” You ask and she holds your hand that won’t be holding the needle. She knows you're nowhere near scared of piercing her with a needle, but she’s glad you didn’t exactly call her out. You call in a nurse that was around in case you couldn't perform one of your duties to put in the IV so that you can continue to hold her hand as the nurse does so.
Before you instruct the nurse to pick up the needle, you grab a mask that connects to some sort of machine and hold it in front of her face. “This is laughing gas. I’m sorry I forgot about it. It’ll make you less nervous.” This seems to completely relax her, and you place the mask over her nose. She can still talk through her mouth, but you instruct her to close it and take deep breaths through her nose. “It smells like syrup. Maple syrup.” She notes, and you can tell that’s not a bad thing by the way she grins at you. While you wait a few minutes for that to take effect, you talk to her about anything and everything. What you had for breakfast that morning, the weather outside, the way your car broke down on the side of the road on your way here, a book you’ve been reading the past few days, or how cocky Tony is.
“Wow. Pretty and smart.” She mumbles, and you look at her with a confused smile. “Pardon?” “Nothing. Just talking to myself.”
Eventually, she looks at the needle and nods. “I’m ready.” You smile, nodding for the nurse to put in the IV as you continue to stroke the back of her hand with your thumb.
A few minutes later, you have the IV in her arm with a very minimal amount of tears. “Very good job sweetie. You did great.” You could have swore a blush coats her face, but that must just be the laughing gas.
It's only a few minutes later that her eyes close and her breathing evens out, and you take a moment to admire her before grabbing the first tool from the tray. When you go to tell the nurse she can leave, she's smirking at you. “What? What's wrong?”
“You think your patient’s cute.” She laughs, and you shake your head quickly. “No. That's unprofessional.” “Okay “sweetie"” She mocks the nickname you just used on the Avenger. “The last time a patient asked to hold your hand, you panicked and forced me to do it.” You glare at her, pointing one hand to the door as you start working on extracting the teeth. “Out Vanessa. I'll call you when I need you.” “Alright Dr. Love.” “That is the stupidest nickname you've ever had for me V. Get out.”
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
About an hour later, you've finished extracting the teeth and sewed her gums back together. They were all on the left side of her mouth, so she'll be able to eat a lot easier if she just uses the other side.
You clean up as you wait for her to wake up, and you sit back down next to her when she begins stirring. The first thing she does is send you a dopey smile and then hang her head to the side so it's falling off the headrest. “No. Don’t do that sweetie. Don’t wanna hurt your neck.” You reposition her head to gently lay it back down, but she just lets it fall again making you chuckle. “Fine. I’ll be right back.” You leave for a few seconds, coming back with a wheelchair and kneeling at her side. “Okay Wanda. I’m gonna help get you in this wheelchair so when your friend comes she can easily get you back to your room okay?” She nods, but makes no attempt to move as she asks, “Do you have balloons?” You giggle, looking around the room before giving her a sympathetic smile. “No. I’m sorry but we do not have any balloons.” The frown on her face is a little sad and the tears that form make you want to go buy her a balloon from the store.
“How about this….” You grab a glove from the counter, then hold it up to your mouth as you blow as hard as you can into it. It’s not easy and it doesn’t get very big, but the smile on her face is worth it as you tie it up and hand it to her.
While you're grabbing something from the desk, she drops it on the side of her bed, and tears fill her eyes again as she tries to get up- which is more like her flopping her body to the side. You look at her, rushing to her side and gently pushing her to lay back down with a chuckle. “And where do you think you’re going missy?” She groans, pointing to the floor. A tear falls down her face, but they stop the moment you pick it up and hand it back to her.
“Alright honey, let's get you into the wheelchair.” You begin helping her sit up and then stand up fully, but she shoves your arms off and gives you a lazy scoff as she mumbles, “I’m a big girl. I can do it myself.” You giggle, watching for a second as she wobbles and then looks back to you. “Why aren’t you helping me?” “You told me not to!” “You’re a mean doctor!” You laugh even harder, placing one of her arms over your shoulders as you help her sit in the chair.
When you go to put her feet in the stirrups, she mumbles something incoherent before tapping your shoulder. “Why are you taking my legs doctor lady?” You snigger. “I’m not stealing them, I'm putting them in the stirrups so they don’t drag on the floor and hurt you honey.” She doesn’t seem to understand you as she groans once again and taps your shoulder again. “I need those! I’m a superhero! I need those to save the world!” You finish putting her feet up correctly and then nod. “You’re right. My bad sweetie.” She huffs and nods like you finally said something correct and then grins at you. “What are you grinning at?” “You’re pretty. Are you single doctor lady?”
Her words take you by surprise, and you look to the window to hide the blush on your cheeks. “Yes. I am single. Why do you ask honey?” “Because I wanna take you out to dinner obviously!” “Obviously.”
You're cleaning some of the tools when she suddenly says, "I like woman and men. Women are pretty don't you think?" You chuckle. "Yes I think women are pretty."
She doesn’t say anything for a few minutes, and you're sure it's because she’s fallen back asleep until she speaks with a giggle, “Look!”
You look away from the file you were reading to look at her, and you watch with wide eyes as she sends a ball of red magic crashing through the window. “Wanda!” Her eyes also widen, and tears fill her eyes as she pouts. “I…..I’m sorry sweetie. I didn’t mean to yell okay? But that’s dangerous. Don’t do it again.” The smile is immediately back and she forms another red blast which you quickly place your hands over to stop. “No.” She nods. “No.” She repeats which makes you instantly melt.
A few minutes later, her friend reappears and asks Wanda, “So did you ask?” The younger girl frowns in confusion as do you, and the redhead woman smirks at you. “She told me with her mind while I was on a date that she wanted to ask you out. Did she do it?” You feel a warm blush coating your cheeks as you shake your head. “Kind of. She’s very high. I didn’t think she meant it. And besides, I don’t date patients.”
She nods, taking the handles of the wheelchair and beginning to wheel the young girl out of the office. Before they reach the door, Wanda calls out quite loudly, “Send me your maple syrup recipe, pretty doctor lady!”
They continue walking out of the medical wing, and you're left with a permanent blush on your face as you think about Wanda Maximoff.
That night, you’re laying in bed when you get a text from an unknown number. It’s three videos of Wanda, two of them her rambling about how pretty you are, and one crying because her friend refused to stop at the Mexican restaurant and get her a taco to blend into a shake. You laugh, looking at the last text that reads, “She literally cried in the gas station because she couldn’t find the toilet and didn’t want my help. Next time I’ll leave her with you until the anesthesia wears off - Natasha”
You chuckle, sending back a quick laughing emoji and asking how the young girl is doing. “She’s okay. She refuses to get rid of the balloon you gave her and will not stfu about you.” This brings a smile to your face and you text back and forth with the Avenger for a while before falling asleep with your phone in hand.
A week passes, and you text back and forth with Natasha at least once a day to check on Wanda. You have to admit that you miss the funny girl, but you're standing by the rule you made that you cannot date patients.
You’re leading a ten year old patient to his mothers car after his oral surgery when you see something that makes you smile in confusion. Wanda is standing up against a in the parking lot, seemingly aggressively texting someone. You help the boy into the car and watch the car leave the parking lot before going back inside. If Wanda needs something, she’ll come in and ask for it.
It’s only about three minutes before she does, and the cold air of winter enters the building as she walks through the main door. You’re standing at the front desk looking through a file with one of the nurses when she walks up to the desk with hesitant steps. “Wanda. How are you, dear?” She nods, babbling on for a second before she clears her throat and mutters, “I’m alright.”
You don’t have any more patients for a few minutes, so you walk around the desk so you're standing in front of her. “That’s good. So…..I’m not saying it’s not nice to see you but why are you here? Did something happen with your stitches?” She shakes her head, gently lifting up her lip to show you the still intact stitches that are allowing her gums to heal back together. “I’m here because well…..I chipped my tooth.” She holds a hand behind her back as she opens her mouth to show you that on the other side of her mouth is in fact a chipped tooth. You sigh, thinking over your schedule before you tell her. “Maybe I can give you a filling this afternoon. Come back at 1pm Miss. Maximoff.” She smiles brightly at you and nods, waving you off as she leaves the office. For someone who's afraid of anything to do with the dentist, she seems quite excited to have another procedure.
Wanda goes back to the compound to wait the next few hours, and when her best friend comes in to ask why she went to the doctors she casually states, “Because I chipped my tooth.” “What? No you didn’t. You would have told me and then I would have had to force you to go to the dentist.” Natasha laughs as she eats from her bowl of ice cream. When Wanda doesn’t respond, she laughs even harder and questions, “Wanda Maximoff, tell me you did not purposely chip your tooth so you can have more time with that doctor.” The witch groans, turning around to face her friend. “I used magic to do it so i didn’t really hurt!” She says it as if that's any better. “Wanda! You used your magic to give that poor doctor even more work to do?! Why can’t you just grow some balls and ask them out?” “Okay first of all, “grow some balls”? What are we, in middle school? And second of all, I will. Once I get my chipped tooth fixed.” “The one you chipped on purpose!”
Later that day, you finish filling Wanda's chipped tooth and then tell her, “The numbing gel will take a bit to wear off and then you may feel a bit of pain but not as much as you feel on your stitches okay?” She nods, sitting up in the chair and sending you an awkward smile. You lead her to the front desk, and leave for a few moments before coming back with a blown up glove. The child-like grin that shows up on her face is priceless. “Thank you!” “Anytime Miss Maximoff. Now, I hope you have a great day and watch that tooth!”
Now, when you said “anytime”, you didn’t mean anytime. Apparently, Wanda didn’t get this memo as she was back three weeks later. “Wanda! What a surprise! What brings you to my office today?” She smiles nervously, opening her mouth to show you the chipped tooth on the top row of her teeth this time. You sigh, already looking in the computer to schedule her an appointment for the next day. “That's two chipped teeth in one month. What happened honey?” She shrugs, thinking for a few seconds before she tells you, “I was eating a bagel this morning and it just suddenly broke!” “Right. Well, you can come back at 11am tomorrow and I’ll fill it. But you have to be more careful alright sweetie?” She nods, smiling at you before practically running out the door.
Over the next few months, you had Wanda Maximoff in your office a total of 13 times. You literally started keeping track. Whether it was toothaches, her habit of grinding her teeth, a chipped tooth, or to bring you lunch at one point, you talked to the Avenger at least every two weeks.
Today, it’s been about a week since you saw Wanda when she came in complaining about a pain in her jaw. You begin to wonder how she pays for this many dentist appointments, but that thought is quickly resolved when she wrote you a check with a whole lot of 0’s without hesitation a few months ago.
Today, you’re eating lunch in the break room after giving a screaming 12 year old oral surgery and Vanessa comes in with a smirk. “Your girlfriends here.” “My girlfriend? I don’t have a girlfriend V.” She shrugs, pointing to the hallway which leads to the front as she teases, “The woman that comes in with a different tooth problem every few weeks- which is much more than anyone should have to go to the dentist by the way- isn’t your girlfriend?” You roll your eyes and stand up, but you can’t help the blush that grows on your face as you think about the Maximoff girl. “Shut up V.”
You walk to the front of the office building with your salad in hand, smiling brightly as the back of the redhead who's sitting in a chair reading a magazine. “Hey witchy. What brings you here today?” She stumbles off the chair and grins at you. “Hi! I’m here because……because…..because my friend chipped a tooth!” A man with blond hair and big strong arms looks up from his book and gives the girl a confused look. “No I didn’t-” He cuts himself off with a loud groan and brings a hand up to hold his cheek. “What the hell Wanda?” You stare at the pair for a few seconds before he suddenly narrows his eyes as Wanda and states. “No way. I’m not letting you do this anymore.”
Her eyes widen, but it’s too late to do anything as he tells you, quite loudly might I add, “Wanda has a crush on you but has been too baby to say anything so she's been using her magic to fake tooth injuries!” You're silent for a few minutes, and Wanda seems to be getting more nervous by the seconds as she won't make eye contact with you.
Suddenly, you begin to giggle, which turns into a chuckle which turns into a full on laugh. There's only one patient other than them here and he looks up at you weirdly as you practically stop breathing with laughter. Wanda begins to nervously chuckle, still not making eye contact with you as she asks, “Wha- um…what's funny?”
You stop laughing, taking a bite of your salad as you tell her, “Well Wanda Maximoff, I’ve been flirted with a lot of times by patients, but never once has a patient faked an injury and actually gotten away with it. Props to you honey.” You hold your hand up for a high five, and she awkwardly high fives you. “Along with that, never once has it worked. Their flirting I mean.” “And mine didn’t either?” You sigh, looking to the front desk where all the nurses and doctors are watching you. “Go back to work!” you mouth (not that any of them listen though). “Wanda….sweetie…..I don’t date patients.” She sighs, nodding her head as her friend rubs her back reassuringly. A pen is thrown at your head from one of the other doctors making you silently groan and rub your head. “But….”
Her head snaps up and a hopeful grin takes over her face. “But?” “But if you wait 6 months for our doctor patient relationship to be terminated, I’ll let you take me out on a date.” If possible, her smile gets bigger and she nods, sticking out her hand for you to shake. “Deal?” “Deal.” You shake her hand, but you're quickly pulled into a bone crushing hug.
Wanda Maximoff is an interesting girl. You knew that when she came in for her first appointment a blew a hole through the office window, or when she kept breaking tooth after tooth. There's nothing wrong with being interesting though, as it just gives you a million other things to learn about the girl. Which you did over time when her patient doctor relationship with you finally terminated and she took you on a total of six dates in one month. You learned she's a romance girl, which only continued the longer you guys dated. You learned she cries over dog movies even if they have a happy ending, you learned about her brother Pietro and that every year on the night before their birthday, she sits outside with two plates of cake- one for her, and one for him- as the clock strikes twelve. You learned she loves cooking and baking, and that she can’t paint to save her life. She has flaws, and she's not afraid to admit them as long as you're not afraid to admit yours. And that's only a few reasons why you love her.

A/N: This one was suggested by @mashmaiden. Set within a few weeks of Rosa joining the Deeks-Blye household. Hope this hits the mark.
***
Just in Case
“Marty, Kensi is there any more pain medicine? I used the last two,” Rosa asked. Deeks looked up from his laptop, instinctively checlking for any signs of blood or injury. Beside him, Kensi got up, cupping her cheeks in concern.
“Are you ok?” she checked, and Rosa nodded.
“I just have a headache.”
“Uh, we should have more in the closet at the end of the hall,” he told her. “Careful, it’s a little cluttered in there.”
“Let us know if you need help,” Kensi called after her as Rosa walked out of the room. She sat down on the couch, grabbing her own laptop.
“Ok, so we have another meeting with Rosa’s social worker next week. Should we try to schedule it for the morning or afternoon?” she wondered.
“Good question. Kilbride hates it when you’re late, but also can’t stand it when you leave early.” Deeks squinted. “Eh, let’s try for something in the morning, but mid-week.”
“Because Kilbride will be less cranky.”
“Theoretically,” he said with a shrug. Depending on the day, anything could set Kilbride off. Thankfully, they had a good amount of personal leave time saved up from over the years, which had come in handy during Rosa’s entire foster and adoption process.
“Alright, I requested 8 AM.”
Rosa returned then, empty handed, and confusion written across her face.
“You couldn’t find any?” Deeks guessed, starting to get up. “I bet there’s some behind the vitamins.”
“No, I found a bottle,” Rosa said. “There’s also a lot of bandages, three blood pressure cuffs, five thermometers, prescriptions, a walker, crutches, and a lot of things I didn’t recognize. Are you two ok?”
“Oh yeah, those are mostly leftover.”
“Leftover? Why would you need multiple braces?”
“Um.” Kensi glanced a at Deeks, clearly looking for guidance. He shrugged, not having considered this particular topic coming up.
“You know, in the past we’ve had some work-related injuries,” he began slowly.
“Like when you were shot?”
“Right. Though that was before Kensi and I were together. Some of those injuries came with a, uh, good amount of recovery time and therapy and we don’t always love staying in the hospital for the full recommended time, so we’ve collected a good amount of medical paraphernalia over the years.”
“Though we haven’t had any significant injuries like that in a while,” Kensi inserted.
“But why did you keep it all?” Rosa asked. She didn’t look overly concerned or scared, simply curious.
“Well, given past history, it seemed smart to keep some of it around. In case we had any future…incidents,” Deeks said. He pulled a face. “It turns out medical equipment is kind of pricey and they start looking at you funny after you get your third pair of crutches.”
“You’ve broken something in your leg three times!” Rosa gasped.
“No, of course not. A couple were from bad sprains and…other things.” He glanced at Kensi, who had her lips firmly pressed together.
“Rosa, Deeks and I are fine. I don’t want you to look at all the things I’m that closet and worry something’s going to happen to us,” Kensi told her. “We take a lot less risks than we used to.”
“I wasn’t that worried. Though I did think you might be sickly.”
“Oh no, we’re pretty healthy aside from various bullet holes and what not,” Deeks said. Rosa exhaled in apparent relief.
“Good. Because no one besides a doctor should have that many pulse oximeters and liquid stitches,” she said. “It’s kind of weird.”
“So, you’re saying we should maybe de clutter and reorganize the medical closet?” Deeks summarized.
“If you have some spare time. And I can help.
“We can do that. It’s Kensi’s favorite thing.”
“Hey,” Kensi protested. “I am much neater than I used to be.”
“Yeah, tell that to the three years expired Vicodin in there.” He hooked his thumb over his shoulder.
“I should have known you would bring that up,” Kensi sighed.
Rosa giggled, covering her mouth, and Deeks grimaced playfully.
“Sorry, we are really weird sometimes.
“I don’t mind,” she assured him. “But maybe we can get rid of at least one pair of crutches.”
“Fine,” Kensi agreed. “But when we need those blood pressure cuffs, I don’t want to hear a word.”

Blueberry pediatrics
When rebel had her stomach bug in Japan I signed up for blueberry pediatrics. It's $18 a month and includes unlimited tele-health visits for any number of children you have. There was also a $35 sign-up fee but that provided a pulse oximeter, a thermometer and Smart Otoscope. Its not supposed to replace a pediatrician. All of my kids still have one of those - different physicians because of foster care, post foster care and non foster care kid requirements/needs. But this is perfect when I know exactly what the kid has and/or when we can't get into the doctor's office.
In this case I need a quick prescription refill for baby boys inhaler. We have his nebulizer so it was not an emergency but also nothing I needed to go to the doctor for. They had me on a call with a doctor within 15 minutes.
I wish I could get the same thing for myself. I hate going to the doctor when I know its the same UTI I get every few years. I know I need antibiotics.
I really wish baby boy didn't have asthma. We are lucky its not as severe as some cases but its still not fun to hear your kid breathing heavy/coughing like crazy. It also doesn't go well with his other sensory seeker diagnosis. The kid runs around like a maniac regardless of whether it will cause him to hack away or not.
Happy to be home. I missed my babies. Baby boy was ramped up with excitement. Rebel scored a goal at soccer.
This week both girls have Ballet Hispanico performances at school. The program only goes through first grade so it's Bee's last year :( On Friday the teacher said some kids wanted to audition for a speaking part. We knew Rebel would be on the list. She's totally the type to audition. Bee could care less and wouldn't waste her time memorizing a line. "Afrobeats is a diverse and fascinating style of dance originating predominantly in Sub Saharan Africa." We've all got it memorized because she practiced her little heart out. She told me she picked that line because only one other kid did. As you can see, she's also the type to game the system to her favor. I don't think she'll be too upset if she doesn't get a part. Or at least I hope not.

Keeping Your Heart Safe During Long Power Outages
Power outages can turn daily life upside down—no lights, no Wi-Fi, maybe even no way to cook or stay cool. But for those managing heart conditions, a prolonged blackout can add extra worries. How do you keep your heart healthy when the lights go out? Let’s talk about practical steps to stay safe and calm, even when the grid isn’t cooperating.
Why Power Outages Matter for Heart Health
For anyone with heart issues, sudden changes in routine or stress can take a toll. During outages, common challenges include:
Stress spikes: Uncertainty about when power will return or how to manage basics like food and temperature.
Limited access to medical devices: CPAP machines, blood pressure monitors, or refrigerated medications might become unusable.
Reduced activity: Staying indoors or avoiding heat/cold can mean less movement, which isn’t ideal for circulation.
Diet disruptions: Spoiled food or reliance on non-perishables might lead to unhealthy eating.
Here’s the good news: With a little prep, you can tackle these challenges head-on.
Prep Ahead: Your Heart-Health Emergency Kit
Backup Power for Medical Gear: If you rely on devices like CPAP machines or oxygen concentrators, invest in a battery backup or portable power station. Keep spare batteries charged, and check if your device has a car adapter (useful if you need to charge via your vehicle).
Medication Management: Store at least a week’s extra supply of heart medications. Ask your doctor if any pills need refrigeration—if so, keep a small cooler with ice packs ready. Avoid opening the fridge during outages to preserve cool temps longer.
Stay Hydrated, Stay Cool: Dehydration strains the heart. Stock bottled water (1 gallon per person daily) and electrolyte drinks. If heat is an issue, keep cooling towels or battery-operated fans handy.
Heart-Friendly Snacks: Choose non-perishables like nuts, canned beans, whole-grain crackers, or dried fruit. Avoid salty snacks (they can raise blood pressure) and sugary treats (energy crashes aren’t helpful).
During the Outage: Staying Calm and Active
Manage Stress Mindfully: Stress raises blood pressure and heart rate. Practice simple breathing exercises: Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, exhale for 6. Repeat 5 times. Listen to calming music or audiobooks on a charged phone.
Keep Moving Safely: No treadmill? No problem! Do seated leg lifts, gentle stretches, or march in place for 10 minutes a few times daily. Movement boosts circulation and mood.
Monitor Symptoms Closely: If you have a blood pressure cuff or pulse oximeter, check readings regularly. Write them down to share with your doctor later. If you feel chest pain, dizziness, or extreme fatigue, don’t wait—seek help.
Food Tips When the Fridge Is Off
Eat Smart: Prioritize foods that don’t need cooking: oatmeal packets, peanut butter, or canned tuna (in water, not oil). Use a gas stove or grill outdoors only if you must cook.
Avoid Sodium Traps: Canned soups and processed snacks are often high in salt. Rinse canned veggies or beans before eating to reduce sodium by up to 40%.
When to Call for Help
Don’t hesitate to reach out if:
You experience chest discomfort, shortness of breath, or irregular heartbeats.
Medications run low or spoil due to heat.
You feel overly anxious or unwell.
If symptoms feel urgent, head to the nearest clinic or hospital. For non-emergency advice, consulting the best cardiologist in Bhubaneswar can provide clarity on managing your condition during disruptions.
After the Outage: Recovery Tips
Check refrigerated meds: If power was out over 4 hours, some medications (like insulin) may expire. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for guidance.
Restock your emergency kit.
Schedule a heart health checkup if the outage caused major stress or routine disruptions. The best cardiologist in Bhubaneswar can help assess any changes in your condition.
Final Thoughts
Power outages are tough, but they don’t have to put your heart at risk. A bit of planning—backup power, smart food choices, and stress management—can make all the difference. Remember, your heart health matters even when the world feels temporarily off-track. Stay prepared, stay calm, and don’t shy away from asking for help when you need it.
