Can you believe I haven’t posted anything on this site for 3 days!? I feel so bad for not having any content for you all to read! 4th of July weekend this year was just a busy weekend for us. It all started Thursday and didn’t end until super late Sunday night. I’ll be posting all about it with tons of great pics… hopefully tomorrow.
Right now, I am recovering.
I got a really bad stomach ache yesterday evening and it just would not go away. It kept me up tossing and turning on the couch {where there was nice cool air conditioning for relief from the 90 degree weather} all night. Finally at 5am I had had enough and went into my room so I’d have more room to toss and turn in my bed. Little did I know the dog had claimed it, but that’s besides the point.
Nothing I could do would take the pain away. I barely slept a wink all night. I finally fell asleep for just over an hour late morning, only to wake with even worse pains. I tried and tried to deal with it, but finally gave in after a shower only made me feel worse.
My dear sweet man drove me to the ER and spent the majority of his day there with me, only leaving to check on the kids and to get something to eat. I sure do owe him.
It was a pretty busy day at the ER, so I ended up being there for over 5 hours. They put an IV in, ran a ton of blood work {did I ever mention I have a needle phobia?} and later a CT scan of my stomach. After the results were in they informed me they didn’t find anything life threatening. What a relief!
But, my liver didn’t look too hot, so I need to change my diet and no more crazy party weekends. I also have a couple of Gall Stones, which i hope don’t hurt too bad when they pass. I’ve heard different stories, so I really don’t know what to expect.
Needless to say, it’s been a horrible day. I can’t wait for it to be over. In fact, I am going to lie down now.
