Allergic reaction in hospital, sleeve date moved until tomorrow.

I had an allergic reaction to plasma. Broke out in hives. No surgery until tomorrow.

My blood isn't clotting as well as it should. Which is why the plasma. I took no aspirin so they've narrowed it down to not enough Vitamin k, which is in veggies, which I can't have on the liquid diet.

I had a panic attack while getting hives. I also was used as a damn pin cushion for 15 minutes until the specialist got there and nailed the blood draw in 1 shot. I cried, they really dug around in my hand.

I just got home, then up at 5 am to be back at the hospital by 7. Joy.

This is my first hospital stay ever. And it was horrible. I'm afraid to go back in the morning.

I am so, so sorry. I feel your pain. I went in for surgery oringinally on Nov. 6 (I was also getting my gall bladder out) I woke to a tube in my throat, hands tied down and no sleeve. UGH. I had a reaction to anesthesia and my heart rate shot up, they had to stop half way through. I went back the next month. Not a single problem since.

You'll do fine. I'm glad for you that it was not something more and they know the issues now. Best of luck to you tomorrow!!

So sorry you're experiencing this. Don't worry and stress yourself out, this will all be a distant memory soon. Good luck to you!!

Thank you everyone.

I am so sorry. Hang in there! Believe me an 8x surgery veteran there are much better hospital stays. I will be thinking of you tomorrow!
