Okay so I woke up on Monday morning and everything seemed just fine but within an hour of waking I was doubled over in agonizing pain. I was witting and vomiting for the next three hours. Then Kelly came home, took me to the Urgent Care center where they drugged me up, took x-rays and blood tests and sent me home saying they did not know what was wrong. After that round of drugs wore off I was once again in crippling pain and so Kelly and I went to the ER around 10 at night.
More tests and treatments over the next 12 hours- blood test, urine tests, x-rays, CT scans, ultra sounds, a catheter and few bag of fluids for hydration and 3 shifts of doctors later, I was sent home with a still uncertain diagnosis. They did find evidence of a slight urinary tract infection, of a burst ovarian cyst, and some gastroenteritis but every doctor had a slightly different take on the situation.
After the ER dismissal, I was home for a few hours when we realized my bladder was still not voiding and so we went back to the hospital. They sent me home that time with a catheter and an appointment with the urologist for the next day. So I did go to the urologist today who thinks I had a cyst that burst along with gastroenteritis which led to a bladder inflammation which shut that down and created all the pain and vomiting and so forth.
So anyway- I still feel lousy but am planning to be better by the weekend for the John Friend festivities. We shall see. I figured it was a good sign tonight that I was actually hungry.
Take Care and Get well soon
ReplyDeleteOh no! That's a lot to have happen at once. I hope you are feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteHi there. I read your blog religiously and was wondering where you were. Please take care. Even those who don't personally know you, care deeply about you and your well being. I can't wait to study with you one day.
ReplyDeleteHow horrible! We will be pulling for you. Love, Lisa
ReplyDeleteI had no idea! This sucks. Every single thing that was wrong is excruciatingly painful all by itself, not to mention together. Ugh! I know you'll heal quickly. I will be there for you all weekend. Love, Liz
ReplyDeleteGood grief woman! Sending lots of healing thoughts your way- I am glad you can just relax and let the kula take care of things- enjoy the energy of the gathering if you can't actually physically practice. That's what I did in Van when you came- it was humbling but good on many levels.
ReplyDeleteBig love-
Leanne :>)
