Spent the majority of my day yesterday - in the ER


My2Beauties wrote: So I left work early because I started feeling even worse. I was a crying mess, I felt so bad! They wouldn't let me drive to th ehospital, so someone had to come and pick me up, I still don't have my car today. I get to the Emergency Room and sat there for 3 1/2 hours before I went back mad.gif The guy kept saying you're non-urgent so you have to wait, I said do I need to puke all over the floor to make me urgent mad.gif Then I get back there and they take urine, and put an IV in me bawling.gif OMG it hurt so bad, the guy was awful. I don't have a bruise thank goodness! I was pretty dehydrated because my veins were "hard" they said and they couldn't hardly get any blood from me neither, so my veins were weak. I had a UTI also that I had no symptoms of whatsoever sad.gif They said that could be the cause of the nausea and diarrhea, since I didn't know about it, no telling how long I've had it. So they pumped my IV with fluids, antibiotics, and Phenegren unsure.gif I felt loopy from the moment they put it in my IV. The docs were laughing at me because I couldn't even hold my head up after 2 minutes! So they fed me crackers and Sierra mist happy.gif I feel alot better today, still a bit woozy from the Phenegren though, I hate the way that stuff makes me feel. I have to get get two antibiotics filled as well as they gave me more Phenegren to have filled (um suppositores) so I seriously doubt I'll be getting those filled! I'm not sticking anything up my butt blush.gif unless I'm dying! I said I haven't thrown up so why do I need to take these (er) rectally. He said just incase you do throw up. I was like yeah but my antibiotics are oral, why not my phenegren! Needless to say they didn't change their minds, so needless to say I'm not getting it filled! I won't take those things anymore anyways, they make me feel higher than a kite! blush.gif So I'm at home today, but I feel a lot better. I have been drinking my fluids and I am about to go down to the babysitters and sit with Hanna, I'm not contagious! I haven't really gotten to see or hug my baby for the past 4 days for fear of her getting this awful virus! Thanks for your get well vibes guys - they worked! wink.gif with the help of some IV fluids laugh.gif

DansMom replied: Cranberry juice helps not just bladder infections, but UTI as well---drink loads! I hate ER visits---even when Daniel was bleeding profusely from a puncture wound in his forehead, we never even got seen after 3 hours. That's the shortest amount of time I've waited in an ER, and it was only that short because we left without being seen. Uggh, just awful.

mom21kid2dogs replied: Boy LeaAnn, you ought to be really ready for a honeymoon after all that!! Get well fast!!!

TeagansMom609 replied: Ugh, UTI's are horrible. I used to get them alot, so did my sister. But I knew when I had one because it was so painful. Thank God you didnt have that pain! Im glad they figured out what it was and that your feeling better. Thank goodness it didnt happen on your honeymoon. By the way where are you going?

JessC replied: EWW that sounds awful! I had a IV but I had them knock me out first before they put it into my arm! tongue.gif

That is good that they got you treated though, I hope you are feeling better! (((((HUGS)))))

redchief replied: How awful! Glad you're feeling better and that they've diagnosed your illness. Hope your recovery is easier than your stay in the ER!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Oh hun! grouphug.gif How AWFUL!! I'm so glad you are feeling better, though. Go hug and smooch that baby girl now!!

JAYMESMOM replied: I am glad to hear you find out what is wrong and are on the road to recoverey. Just in time for your honeymoon.
