Well, it's simple... when I took my meds that morning, I had also, unknowingly, taken my Ambien, too. I must have really been tired when I took it, because I really started getting dizzy & numb & it was just not right.
I remember calling my mom & asking her I think she need to come get me & take me to the hospital... because I had no idea what was going on. She said call the doctor & lay down. If he thinks its needed, call 911.
Well, I remember calling the dr's office & he wasn't in, so the call was transferred to the hospital... by that time I was really out of it, because I remember the person saying they couldn't understand me & I think I was hung up on. Oh well, it didn't matter, because by that time I fell asleep.
I woke up about 6:30p to my mom calling & checking on me... I asked her, was I mumbling & not making any sense? She said she could understand me, but knew something was wrong. I'll bet by the time I got a hold of someone at the hospital that the Ambien really kicked in. Because I recall sluring my words & all.
So, anyway, nothing was wrong... just "put my self to sleep" a little too soon. Yeah, 12 hours too soon! LOL
Now I strictly use my daily medicine holder that's separated for Breakfast, Lunch, Supper, & Bedtime. (Which I only use breakfast & bedtime.) I don't want to do that again! It's bad enough I don't take it once in a while & stay up all night... but taking it without truly being aware... All I have to say, I'm glad I was not working... or worse yet, DRIVING!!!!
Ok, now that I have you caught up on that...
A little more update... I have remembered some more since 4-17-07... but again it's nothing signifigant & still not complete memories.
I am in the process of starting another page / blog that will consist just of the things I remember as I remember them. I'll put a link on this blog when I have it ready for viewing. Stay tuned!
