Got to ride in the disco bus last night
And not as an EMT. Ugh what a mess.
Went to bed with some pain. Woke up at 2:30 and took my meds, headed into the bathroom and felt weak, sick and hot. Yelled for DH and I just was a wreck. He picked me up to take me to bed and I passed out. I came to a few seconds later and seized a little.
They thought I may have had a clot since I woke up and it felt like Simone punched me in the calf. All is good on that front. Think just everything threw me for a loop. Definitely not fun. Good thing was DD slept through the whole thing with the dogs barking, the cop, the bus, MIL coming etc. She even slept in late apparently!
Skye- I'd you're reading this, I did manage to get my splint redone :P
Re: Got to ride in the disco bus last night
Gosh, can't you ever just have a normal medical procedure?!
I hope you're feeling better soon!
Seriously! Hope you are able to get some rest!
Oh, that's terrible! Not exactly how I imagined you getting your way to shift the spint, but - okay!
What do they think it was??? That's no good...... you need to be careful!
.....and it can't come quickly enough!!!!
Thanks all. Feeling much better today. Now, I'm just so bored on this beautiful day and want to take a walk or cook. Nerves are starting to work and are zapping me all of the time. Hoping that's healing and not something wrong
It was definitely scary for both of us. I remember coming too and hearing DH say he was calling 911 and I was thinking I didn't need it, but the first thing out of my mouth was hurry. Freaky. He was good, but I remember looking up as they wheeled me to the bus and he had a second of sadness on his face.
Skye - they think in the end it was a vasal vagal reaction. Due to a combination of trauma to my body and possibly a reaction to the Dilaudid. My blood pressure tanked and once I got to the ED I started having shallow breathing. Will be interesting when my PCP and the surgeon find out about this
I have another follow up on Tuesday. In the meantime, I've stopped the Dilaudid, even though ED Dr said I didn't have to and am drinking a LOT of water. Always interesting with me 
I wondered!! What are you taking for pain if not Dilaudid? Something a little less potent? Is it working?
SO glad you're feeling better!!!!
.....and it can't come quickly enough!!!!
Love your ticker! I'm taking Ibuprofen, Tylenol, a baby aspirin for clotting precaution and that's it. I'd really like to knock down the Ibuprofen for my stomach, but I'll wait a little longer. Besides every once in a while, the pain at the actual site has been minimal. So, that's been good! Now, if I could have avoided the rest!
