"A probem with a cure"

[Schawnsee 0]

"Schawnsee what do you remember last before waking up in sickbay?"

Kat's still laying on the biobed, her head still hurting, from what she figures was the fall

and that she hit her head on something. "I remember seeing ... what I thought was the bird flying outside

the window and then was escorted to my quarters. I went to walk towards the sofa,

then things started spinning."

 

Merina was slightly concerned, "The bird... in space. You know that's impossible." She looked at Kat's vital's

again and noticed that her blood pressure was slightly lower than it should be. "Hmmm."

 

"I know that's why I didn't say anything at first. Doc, How bad is my head? It hurts like crazy."

Kat says reaching up rubbing her temple once again.

 

"Well, you have a mild concussion which I can treat, but it's not your head you should be worried about,

it's your blood pressure. I think the medication that we started you on may have an adverse reaction. '

But don't worry, I'll talk to Dr. Matthews about the medication and it's affect on you." Merina begins

treating the concussion, so Kat doesn't have the headaches anymore.

 

Kat sighs softly. "My blood pressure? Is it that high? You said Mild concussion, Did I hit something

with my head?" Her voice turning more worried sounding and she sits up onto her elbows.She quickly lays

back down when her world starts spinning again. "Whoa..." She blinks her eyes several times, resting

her head back on the bed once more.

 

"Actually, it dropped it. From the readings, probably more lower than it is now. Which would

cause some of the reactions as if was higher. What you hit your head with I'm not sure,

you were in your restroom," Merina replied.

 

Kat turns her head to look towards Merina once more. This time she started rubbing her

eyes, Things were a bit blurry.

 

Merina looked at Kat, "Are you ok?"

 

Kat answered, "When I sat up on my elbows everything started spinning, now everything is blurry."

Her voice changes slightly to a more scared tone. "Doc Im scared. Am I going to be okay?"

 

Merina ran some more scans. "Kat, I want you to relax. I'm going to run some tests and scans.

I'm going to have Dr. Matthews look at them to see what we can do to fix this. I promise everything

is going to be fine. You know we'll take good care of you."

Kat sighs with a sob. "I... I know.. Im just .... scared Doc and worried, that I will ... " Kat drops

off not wanting to say what she's thinking.

 

Merina puts her paw on Kat's shoulder, "I know, you're in good hands. We'll figure this out, I promise."

 

Kat lets out another quivering sigh and closes her eyes, allowing Merina to do whatever it is she wishes.

"Thanks .... Doc." She then moves her hand to place on top of Merina's paw. "Thanks."
