ER Visit
So I drove myself to the ER Thursday night, and ended up there from 11p to 3am (or something like that...we spent like six hours there all together). Anyway, my girl made me go instead of going to work that night. I'm working third shift now at a stupid gas station. They lock you up in the building from 11pm till 5am cause there's been a few shootings...yet the glass isn't bullet proof...how does that help?
Anyway, back to the story. I went to the ER cause my girl woke me up because she thought I was having a bad dream. Apparently, she was video taping me, saw me crying, and stopped recording. She was taping me cause she thought it was cute that I was twitching, wincing some, and mumbling in my sleep. Well as soon as she woke me up the pain hit. Hard, and the tears came. I had severe abdomen pain in my right side.
Took her some convincing, but I managed to drive there with her by my side (*smiles at this*). They took me pretty quickly for what I was use to, which was nice, but the third shift nurse was a bitch. Besides her, they did a cat scan and found nothing wrong with my appendix or kidneys. So it wasn't my appendix that needed to be removed. I think they checked my kidneys too cause I had kidney failure as a kid.
They also didn't tell me what was wrong or what they thought it was because that's all the tests they did even after they put an IV in and hooked me up to a machine to monitor my heart and oxygen levels.
Side Note: I have an irregular heart beat...at least according to the machine I did, like all the time, and the lowest it dropped was 42bpm. Scary! Yet I felt fine...odd.
Back to story, so I'm to see if I get in anymore pain. If I do I need to return to the ER and they'll do whatever it is they need to do. I haven't had any pain, and to this day I do not know what the fuck happened. All I know was it felt like somebody was stabbing me over and over again in the side. *sighs* Let's hope it doesn't come back.
