So I was admitted to the ER yesterday. D: Friday night, I had really severe stomach pains that kept me up until the next morning, which culminated into really severe vomiting. The pain was so bad that I couldn't even stand up straight, so I finally agreed to go to the hospital, where I was told that I had an ovarian cyst that had ruptured. The pain was caused by blood that had seeped into my stomach--apparently the two are never, ever supposed to mix--and the vomiting was a result of the intense pain. Going to a doctor tomorrow for follow-up care and instructions. I feel pretty crummy but I'm hanging in there. ;__;
So. I spent half the day in the Emergency Room because of a Kidney Stone. O____O
It was scary... They did a CT Scan and gave me an IV and everything. I've never been to the hospital before as a patient, and I was sort of hesitant to go because usually only really sick people go there, but the pain was so bad this morning that I thought I just might die. I though I was going to naturally combust because my body hurt so much. It's no joke when people say that Kidney Stones cause "the most excruciating pain you'll ever feel". Even the doctor told me that having a baby hurts about ten times less. O___O That's very reassuring, actually.
Love,
Popo
PS: Today was my mom's birthday and the poor thing spent the whole day tending to me. D: I love that women so much.♥

Close Call
Aug. 15th, 2007 03:49 pmWhew... Abbey had a close call today-- we have some guys here taking down trees in the backyard who stupidly brought along two Bull Mastiffs for the job and one of them took a bite out of my poor old dog! D: They gave her a deep puncture wound under her right ear that stretches about 3/4 of an inch and a small puncture on her upper neck.
We rushed her to the nearest vet, who turned away our bleeding baby because "they were all full" and sent us to the emergency clinic in Portland-- 20 minutes away! Anyways, the vet there advised us against stiches because she's so old and would need to be sedated, so for now she's on some pills. The poor thing... She was scared to get out of the car when we brought her home because she could see the dogs at the end of the driveway. She was trembling all over and hugging close to Dad. Even though the two dogs were ((literally)) chained up, the man who owns them is graciously excepting to pay the medical bills. I still feel bad... She's 10 1/2 and this is the first time she's been bitten.
Just needed to get the event in writing--
