another update...

Surgery is set for the 21st...
gall bladder is coming out...
stones...
spent the whole day there seeing doctors and having tests done...
now, I am tired and sore and heading for bed...
thank you so much for remembering me in your prayers and for praying for the whole family, too...
will let you know how things go when the time comes, but I should be back to regular blogging tomorrow with some really cool stuff!
promise...

ER update...

I want to thank you all for all the prayers going on my behalf...
as you can guess, they didn't keep me, which was ok by me, hate being there...
but we did get a blood test while this was going on...
and it showed very high liver counts, which I told them it was malfunctioning, so know they know for sure...
have to follow up with my doctor this morning...
I will call as soon as they open up...

this spell was the worst one yet and I hope there are no more...
but probably won't get that lucky...
I hope they xray my back and find out what's going on with the pinched nerves there...
I do not do good with meds and refused nausea meds in the ambulance...
which was a good thing...
because they gave them to me in the ER...
and my nurse was super great...
I asked for half a dose...
and she only gave me half with no problems with that...
before she got out of the room, I had an allergic reaction...
she had put it in the IV and my forearm started burning and turned a blotchy red so fast...
then it welted up, she hollered down the hall for the er doctor and he was right there...
I got a half a dose of benedryl for it...
there were more meds over there to be given, and I passed on the pain killers and told her I could handle it...
didn't want another reaction to anything else...

so no pain meds, and it eased up and BP and everything went back to normal...
could the blood and urine tests back, so they sent me home...

I came home, got sick again, had to hit the shower...
crawled into bed and was back up at 3am...
finally got some baked chicken down and some 7up...
so I am on my way back to bed...
will feed the babies on the way so we are on the same schedule...
I will let you know what the doctor says...

BIG HUGS!
