Sure we all believe that those hospital pros are all knowing, NOT!
Sadly, I have found more often than not.
Yesterday while there according to Hubby, my back was bright red and asked the nurse about it and she said it was probably from the gurney.
Besides a saline IV they, on the ambulance administered medication to alleviate my vomiting.
When it appeared not to be working, by me retching and vomiting more, the nurse systematically thought that it had been over twenty minutes so she put some more into my IV tube.
It is true that it eventually worked, but even outside of the CAT scan room I deposited a bit more in bigger than emesis container, the size of a dish pan, and no I did not have enough of anything in me to fill it up; I hadn't had even breakfast when this started, only two cups of coffee! It was at five, and by this time it was like eleven, I think.
The whole experience is a bit foggy, mostly from the meds I bet.
Oddly enough, Hubby called about the rash, my Internist MD. who I was to follow up with after and they said nothing about what to do about it, weird, I do have an appointment, next week; I was told to see her in 3-5 days.
Needing feedback still so I called the pharmacy where Hubby bought them, our usual, and they told me that I should stop them both and I did, still rather groggy with two naps today.
My nausea seems to have subsided, since my appetite was back and I did eat more than soup for two meals without incidence and Hubby is picking up dinner from Subway right now.
Unfortunately my headache is still subtle but fortunately not causing nausea yet.
I am still experiencing the numbness and back pain in spite of the heavy dosing of my prescribed meds; back to same ole problem.
On that update note, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and to ask you to kindly count all your blessings and we will too!
And next time be here or be square, ya here!
