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.

  • Kat Glad the surgeon is keeping you until they find the cause of your anomalies. Don't let them discharge you until you have some answers. You are in the right place. If you want any phones call let

I had my GBP January 14. Was put on cardiac ward on 2nd day for very similar symptoms (not as severe). Rapid heart beat or A-fib. Put on a heart calcium Chanel blocker & blood thinner. Cardiologist thinks its temporary and did all kind of tests. Hope to be off meds in 2 or 3 months. Can relate to the extreme fatigue--just now getting stamina back. Good Luck and hang in there!

Katt I know your by yourself but just rest your at the best place now and they will take care of you I know you feel so alone I know cause I spent 2 weeks in there mostly all alone but just try to relax a sleep soon they will get this all worked out and you will feel better Im still dealing with the heart trouble at home on my own its scary but I'm ok cause if I still needed tone in hospital my cardiac dr wouldn't had let me go home Just remember your at the best place to be with all that's going on and it will get better I now how scared you were going into this but these are just little setbacks and just wait for the Grand Prize all our Prayers are going to you we have a chain prayer at our Church and I asked them to include you and everyone of us on here on it so there lots of people praying for all of us to get through this

Kay, praying for you. Praying all is well with you and you will be healthy soon!

Hope your feeling better soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
