back in the hospital

My Dr admitted me yesterday, we are doing lots of tests and I will have to get a pic-line because my veins are all collapsing when they try to get an IV started. The fall really aggravated the pain and I am not able to eat. I am back on clear liquids. I'm sorry I'm not here to support you all, I'm still in a lot of pain. They did an ultrasound of he kidneys to see how big the stones are, they did an ultrasound of my legs to look for blood clots and they did a CT with IV contrast.....I am tired.... I can't wait till I am on my feet.....take care all.

I am overwhelmed by all the supportive messages. I am still in Parkveiw Hospital and had some kind of episode the other night. The gave me a nitro patch and did blood tests. My blood pressure was very high and my heart rate. I woke up with chest pain. So I haven't had any more blood pressure problems it is actually low now. The at giving me Tylenol every 6 hours, toridol every 6, dilaudid every 3, and a fantanyl patch. They had also been giving me demerol but I had an allergic reaction.

So they also think I have a different kind of endometriosis that goes other places in the body.....so now I have to see a gyno. They are doing an endoscopic exam tomorrow and didn't do the pic line because they only do life threatening ones on the weekend. They were able to find one in my chest.

My doctor Chin has been very patient and has made sure I don't yo home before I am ready and is doing all he can to find out what is happening. At least He is a good surgeon, I think western bariatric is such an wonderful group. I really feel that they are taking good care of me.

I am just afraid to say what else can go wrong, because something else keeps happening . I just want to be better and home with my husband and kids. I am alone here most of of the time and I feel very depressed now.. I am so glad you are all here for me. I feel like I have an extended family rooting for me, I can't tell you how much all your responses have helped me.

Hugs and thanks to you all,

Kat

Kat,

This is just a bump in the road. God love ya maybe its a hill in the road lol.

So I am a nurse and if thet give you test or results feel free to ask if I don't know I will look it up. Also be proactive and ask the nurses what tests are being done you have the right to have copies of your tests results. Or ask them to write it down. They will fix whatever is wrong then you will be home soon and this will be in your past.

Relax let the medicine work and rest your body.

Will continue to pray for you!

Gentle hugs! <3 <3
