Hello ER

Ugh I am 4.5 months post up and ended up in the Er tonight :/. I came home after a long day at work and had a snack. Then I Had the worst pain of my life and started to vomit. I honestly have never felt pain like that. I finally broke down and called my friend to take me in. So far I have had some dilaudid, zofran and protonix. They are trying to make me drink a ton of contrast to get a CT. I can't get much of it down with out puking. I swear I thought I perfed my stomach my. Now I wait 90 mins after the contrast for my ct, but my lab work is back and my WBC is high. Hopefully the ct comes back normal!

Thanks everyone. Just saw the dr. She said probably gastritis or stomach bug. My CT just showed sludge. I had a slightly elevated WBC that could be stress related. They offered to call my bariatric surgeon but I refused. I will call when they open. I have developed bad GERD in the past month. I'm sure now they will want another endoscopy after last night. They said it was a possibility before this all happened. Well

I have been up for 24 hrs now, time to go to nefb

Hope everything turns out ok for you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers, keep us updated and goodluck.

Feel better soon!

Prayer your way.

hope you feel

Hope you feel better! Thank goodness it's not something too serious! ;-)
