Working with strange feelings

Tonight, they gave Beth her regular medications of Tylenol and Xanax. So far, everytime they have given her this combo it has been fine. Recently for the last hour or so she seems to have feelings of being on a rollar coaster ride. It feels as though she is going up a hill and then coming down. Needless to say, she is fearful. We spoke with the nurse, who spoke with the doctor; all her vitals are fine and strong, heartbeat is good and breathing is good. This just seems to be some reaction towards the Xanax. The difficult thing is that it hasn't happened before and it makes us anxious. At this point, Beth seems to have fallen asleep, she seems rather comfortable and the feelings have subsided.

Dale and Beth,

I just saw the portal notice tonight, linking me to your blog. i can't believe all you guys have been through in just the last week! i'm glad to hear what the doctors have already been able to diagnose and treat. we'll be praying that you guys receive further clarity and understanding as to what's going on.

it sounds like the discovery of the lung clots was merely an incidental thing that they discovered and is not linked to her symptoms, is this a proper deduction or was there a definite connection?

again, we'll be praying for you dale. we'll look forward to hearing more.

with love,
matt (for all of us)
