hospital
im home. for now. i have to go back monday so they can see how im doing and if it starts swelling again i have to go back sooner.
thursday i was studing with caitlin and my arms felt funny then when michael came we looked and the right one was really big. we put ice on but it didnt help and my other one started swelling up too. so michael took me to find my parents at stevenson and my mom took me to the hospital. they didnt know what was wrong so did some tests and found that my muscle enzime level was like 80 times too high. but they had no idea what was causing it. they started giving me an iv there and told me i would have to stay overnight and then called my docter and she wanted me at a different hospital. so they took me over to the "royal oak beaumont in troy" (lol) and like five different drs were looking at me and trying to figure out what it was from but didnt know. they finally gave me a room at like 3 or 4 in the morning and the whole next day kept trying to figure out why it was like that. they think it was because i weight lifted too much last friday but dont think thats the only reason because it shouldnt have done that a week later. so i cant do any strenuous activity, even running until they figure out whats wrong so i dont know if i can even do track. i got to leave tonight at like 7 i think. idk but my enzime level dropped to 4000 compared to 16000. it should be at 200-300 but as long as i keep drinking they think ill be ok. my arms are still huge though. im gonna have to wear sweaters all this week if i go to school.
even though i was so freaked out the whole time everyone was so nice. i felt bad because my mom had to sleep on this hard pull out chair/bed and stay up with me all thursday night. i wanted michael there with me but i knew he was thinking about me. i missed him =( and after everyone got out of school friday they called me and came to visit and that cheered me up so much. i have the best friends and boyfriend ever. you guys are the best and dont know how much i appreciated you coming to see me and calling.
im glad im home finally and hopefully ill get to stay here and theyll figure out it was just a one time thing.
thank you all again. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!
