As if things cant get any better
Warning: Long Entry of Doom....
So yeah, my world is falling apart, and just when i thought it couldnt get any worse.. it does. It all started shortly before i left to go to Michigan. I was/am having huge financial issues and my car is on the verge of being taken away. They told me saturday they were coming to take it. They wouldnt even help me try and figure out a plan of action or anything. My parents keep telling me to call them and try and work something out and I do, but they arent willing to work anything out. Same with my credit cards. Ive called them too and they arent willing to work anything out. Hours at work are being severely cut, even with the approaching holiday season. And to top it all off ive been sick with a stupid sinus infection. So while trying to come up with the money to keep my car, trying to fight off this sinus infection, and still go to work and try and work my shifts, my parents are being completely unsupportive. Just last night, I came home from work. I wasnt even in the house for a minute and my dad just lays into me, and tells me how im such a screw up and that I pretty much can get out of the house and go live down at the homeless shelter because hes sick and tired of everything. I couldnt even respond. I just stood there and took it all and let him yell at me because theres no use in arguing about it anymore.
As if things couldnt get any worse in my life, I'm awoken at 630 this morning with the worst pain ive ever felt in my entire life. I mean it woke me out of a sound sleep. I was dreaming too. So I sat up, and thought ok maybe i need to use the bathroom and itll go away. WRONG! So at this point im sobbing, because it hurts soooo bad. It started on the left side and just radiated across my abdomen. So i slowly go into the kitchen where my mom is and im telling her my stomach hurts so bad and all the while sobbing, so she knew i wasnt faking it. She asks if i can lay down and i say i can try. We go into the living room and i lay on my back and she starts pressing on my stomach asking if it hurts, which of course it did cuz i was still sobbing. She tells me to go get some clothes on and that we're going to the hospital. (yay) So I go throw some jeans on and im waiting for her to get dressed clutching my tummy and still sniffling and tearing up.
We get to the ER and i check in. And at this point its still painful, but now its tolerable.. just like a normal stomach cramp.. kinda like the ones you get when your on your period.. but maybe a little stronger. So the nurse comes and gets me and has me change into those ass-less gowns and she does the whole lets take your vitals thing. She was super nice too. I liked her. But after she does all that and i give her a urine sample and the dr comes in. He starts askin questions and pokin around and then proceeds to tell me hes going to give me morphine for the pain and that i have to get a ct scan done so they can try and figure out whats causing the pain. And let me just point out that Morphine = FUN! So the nurse comes in gives me an iv and gets me all hopped up on morphine and after a short time later ct tech comes and takes me to the room and gets me all prepared for that... meaning an enema to help the techs see my organs and all that stuff.... THAT WAS NOT FUN IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!!! So after thats all done i get rolled back to the room and the nurse tells me its like an hour before they get the results. So me and my mom were just kinda talking and dozing while we waited. The dr comes back and tells me that thankfully its not my appendix like originally thought, but that i have some kind of inflammation in my small bowel. They think its some form of viral infection of sorts, but who really knows. So they prescribed me some painkiller and sent me on my way. And for the record darvocet knocks me the fuck out.... makes me sleep like a baby.. And now i have to follow up with my dr tomorrow morning. Fun. Thankfully I have insurance. That'll help offset some of the cost of this little visit.. but i dont know how im going to pay for the rest :-(
But yeah so thats been my last few days. Things just cant seem to look up for me lately and its frustrating.
