Well I haven't updated in the last few days b/c I am in the hospital!!! UHHH!!! I was having some stomach issues Friday and Saturday so on Sunday my mother took me to the ER to get checked out. What I thought was probably a minor stomach virus has turned into something not so much fun!
To back up so you understand the full picture....I began taking some new medicines about three months ago for my cramps. I only take these pills four days a month BUT evidently they are some strong things!!! They can cause ulcers and on me they did in fact they caused 10 of them.
When they tested me in the ER my blood count was the first sign that something was terribly wrong. Next I had several other test and they determined that I needed to stay in the hospital. Yesterday they did an upper GI to look at my ulcers that were bleeding. It ended up that every ulcer I had was bleeeding and then they found another one kinda of hidden b/c of a previous stomach surgery the had and it began to bleed profusely while they were in there. They finally stopped all the bleeding. I am now in the hospital at least for three more days. I cannot eat or drink anything only ice chips(great diet plan)! YA HOOO!!! I am going to have to be given several pints of blood b/c I lost so much blood! SO that is where I am at for now..just haning out being bored!
I am really about to go crazy b/c I am not the type to sit around and do nothing so this is hard for me to handle but I am trying.
Well gotta run and go back to sleep again!
