Not a good day today. My morning blood pressure was very, very low at 76/40. My mind was very foggy and I was so cold. I went back to bed and crawled under the covers with the electric blanket turned on high.

Dan had me call the doctor. They called back while I was sleeping and confirmed that I was having a reaction to the novocaine and need to not take it anymore. They just recommended that I really start pushing the fluids. It is very difficult to push fluids when you are a sleeping zombie. But, Dan was very persistent.

I started feeling much better later this evening, like 7pm ish. Dan said he hadn't seen that shade of grey on me for a long time.

I think the novocaine is pretty much out of my system at this point in the day. Whew!
