LONG, PAINFUL DAY

I doubled over today in pain. . . I thought I was going to die!! I have never experienced pain like that and my brother took me to the E.R. I was covered in sweat and my temp was so low, due to shock, that it wasn't registering on their thermometer!! It turns out that not only do I have gallstones that are acting up, I also have a KIDNEY STONE!! OMG. . .Supposedly it is worse than childbirth and with both of them, I was miserable. I have developed a fondness for morphine though!! I love it like nothing else on Earth! Well. . . I can't eat the foods I love more than anything, so morphine is as good as I can get! I'm home now and worried because the pain is starting to come back a little bit and I only have Lortab. I hope it works!! I guess I will ahve to get my gallbladder removed now!

  1. Did your stone pass? When are you having your cholecystectomy?

  2. Stone passed Saturday!! Wish I could just get rid of these stupid gall stones. Hey. . . if I end up being able to have surgery Thursday, do you think one of you could pick me up after and take me home?? I think both my parents and Adam are working. I don't know who to ask.
