guess how I spent my sunday?

Jan 08, 2007 13:41

I was woken up at 5am Sunday with cramps, thinking nothing of it, I went back to bed, a half hour later the cramps got so bad I actually threw up because of the pain, but then it when back to normal cramps. Well, it went on like that, with sharp sharp pain coming every 30-45 minutes and making me throw up from the pain. Finally it got unbearable and my mom took me to the ER. So we get there at 10:30am and I get in and for an hour and a half I sit in pain, throwing up. So then they get me on an IV and get TONS of fluids, then they gave me pain medicine which made me sleepy, but nausea came with it, so they gave me medicine for that. Then I was fading in and out of sleep and then I had a CAT Scan done and they looked at my Kidney, I have a 3mm stone in my Kidney. So I go back in the room and have another nausea fit and keep throwing up, and I had nothing to eat since dinner the night before, so it was all vile (gross, I know, sorry) and so they give me more medicine for that. The nausea stops and they give me this medicine orally to help the stone move fast through me and they give me even more fluids... so I am all groggy and sleepy and bloated and peeing and still no stone. They keey me till 2am and when by 2am still no stone, they decide to send me home and pass the stone at home. So thats where I am right now and that was my Sunday... jealous?

Let me just tell you, that was the most pain I have ever been in. I would have my wisdom teeth out again 5 times instead of going through that again. It was so painful I can't even describe it. I was told its worse than child labor... at least now I know I can handle child birth... haha...

but yeah, not cool and once you have it once, makes it more likely to have them again. The nurse I had has had it 4 times already... ick... and she was pretty young.

Women and Infants hospital was very good to me and because all the nurses knew my aunt, since she works there, I got all visitors. haha.

But yeah, that was my very painful sunday

hospital, pain, kidney stones
