All I wanna do is cry
Psh, I thought my last trip to the hospital was long, having to wait in the ER for 4 hours! Yesterday I was stuck there for 10, and they almost kept me over night! And I spent 9 of those 10 hours hooked up to an IV that was feeding me meds and fluids cuz I couldn't swallow on my own and was becoming dehydrated. And as most of you know, I don't handle needles or blood very well, but they decided to draw blood... TWICE cuz the decided they wanted MORE tests! They even pumped ice cold water into my veins to make the blood come out cuz they weren't getting any the second time. Only this time I was already lieing down so I didn't pass out. To make the whole procedure even worse.. because I threw such a fit when they mentioned needles and IV, they sent these too lil Mr. Rogers wanna-be's in to distract me while they doctors put the IV in. They treated me like I was fucking 3 year old! One of them made me look at a Where's Waldo book and I sware to God I wanted to smack her over the head with it. After like a Minute on each page she would look up with me with that cheesy big ass smile "have you found him yet hun?" in the fakest voice, and I just kept a straight face I had no intention of being friendly to these idiots and pointed out waldo, the girl, and his friend. And she made the biggest deal "OH WOW you are AMAZING!!! That is INCREDIBLE, you are SOOOOOO GOOD!!!" then my dad came in and shes like "OH WOW DAD, you must be SOOOOO PROUD! You should come and see this!!" And my dad had this look of total disbelief on his face. Then he made some sarcastic joke that shut her up for a while. Then when she finally left. My dads like.. "Wow.. Did they think you were 2? From the look on your face you look like you woulda happily just taken the needle to get them out of there." Although I know they had good intentions... it was bad enough that I had to have an IV but having them there made it SOOOOO much worse! If I could I woulda snapped at them and hit them. So ya then they sent the meds through the IV and they were really strong so I was pretty much out for a while. Then I was woken up to take X-rays but because of the meds I couldnt stand up or walk so they had to put me in a wheel chair along with pushing my IV thing behind me cuz I was still attatched to it. They got X-rays of my neck, then they wheeled me back and I slept some more and when I woke my dad was back from dinner. I taught him how to play idiot and he got really into it and got really competitive, so now he's challenging me to more games cuz I beat him 3-2. So that was my highlight of the day.. then the ear, nose and throat doc came.. He eneded up numbing my nose and shoving a scope up my nose and down my throat... most uncomfortbale thing I have ever felt. After that they decided I should stay over night so they could feed me meds through my IV then take another catscan in the morning. But after alot of going back and forth they decided after one more blood draw, it was OK to send me home with meds but to see a doc in a few days or if anything serious happens to come back to ER. So finally they let my dad and I leave the ER... 10 hours later. Through out the entire day they wouldn't allow me to eat or drink so it wasn't until we 10pm that I finally got to eat that day. Oh ya the best part.. after being there 10 hours.. they STILL dont know what exactly is going on in my throat, they have ideas but they still dont know. But I should come back if it gets worse... Wow I fucking HATE doctors. Oh and to top everything off.. because of me getting sick.. my mom's not going to Vegas. I've never felt so horrible before. All I wanna do is cry, but if I do I wont be able to breath.
