Back from Hospital

For those of you that have seen my status on Facebook, I've been dealling with "kidney stones" since Thursday. Apparently I was very much misdiagnosed by urgent care.

I went into the emergency room last night. After urine tests, blood tests, and ultrasounds, we come to find out that I'm pregnant. But it's a tubal pregnancy. I went in for emergency surgery around 1:15 a.m., and they removed my left fallopian tube. I'm at my IL's now, just chilling, trying to figure things out. First thing I want to know how I got pregnant if I'm taking (not anymore) birth control and using a condom! On top of that, I can't take care of Madison for a few weeks.

I am thankful that I decided to go to the ER last night, because the tube was on the verge of rupturing. Please take care of yourselves, because we just don't know what is in store in our lives.

On top of this, we're "homeless." We're about a week and a half behind on the remodel, so half our stuff is at my mom's, and the rest at IL's. Now we need to decide where to stay for the next 2 weeks. Oy vey. Say a prayer for us, please.

    you know where to find us if you need ANYTHING! I think Shaun may be giving Matt a call this week.

  • You had me worried on Facebook when you were keeping us informed that you kept going back in for what you thought were kidney stones. I can't believe it was a tubal pregnancy. How frightening! Do rest up and you'll be in my prayers. - Achelle
  • Oh my gosh how scary! Thankfully the doctors figured it out in time! I hope your recovery is quick and you feel better soon. Take care of yourself.
    Hugs!
  • I just got on line and had Facebook in one window and the nest on the other. So sorry to hear about all the surprising and painful events. My continued prayers for you. 

    I was thinking about you last night because I was wondering if you might be interested in some party things that I was not able to use (plates, napkins, giveaways,& party blow horn things) and might want to use it for Madi's birthday. Its a princess 1st birthday theme. I just want to give it away to someone who might use it. Let me know when you can...no hurry. I will keep it until you tell me other wise....facebook me or email: mae.gagajena@gmail.com 

    Rest and take care.

  • I'm so sorry you've been through so much!  Prayers and hugs.
  • Wow monika!
    Lucky that you went to the ER.

    Its better to go when things go wrong like that then to stay at home and take their word for it.

    I went to the ER 3 times with my gallbladder.  The first time I went they diagnosed me with a muscle cramp!  Good grief...

    My organ ended up being dead when they took it out.

    So its good when you aren't feeling well and you KNOW something is wrong to go back again.

    i'm so glad you did!  How scary.  I'm so happy you are okay though.

    best of luck with your recovery.
     

  • oh my goodness, you have had a lot on your plate!

    Be sure to rest and take care of yourself while you recuperate from the surgery (I can't beleive you were misdiagnosed with kidney stones!). I'm sure that everything else will fall into place.

  •  I'm so sorry for everything you're going through! I can't believe they thought you had kidney stones, which unfortunately, I'm dealing with now!!! It's a good thing they caught it before it ruptured though, just so sorry you had to go through that! Sending you lots & lots of hugs!!!!!
  • Big prayers and lots of hugs!!!
