MEN MEN MEN....GGGGGGGRRRRR

holy cow i got a call from ed to come home right away and i did...holy crap, blood every where dried up on him, he had passed out, he had it coming out both ends......OOOH what a nervous wreck i was he was white as a ghost...long story short i called 911 ...he ended up with 4 units of blood and 9 units of plasma, a scope that showed an ulcer so that got zapped..it was where he was hooked up to his pouch....been there all day ...well from about 1 till 1030 ish...

Oh my goodness...is he ok now??!! You poor thing. As if there is anything else we need, huh? Hope is he doing better...love ya! -court

oooh my gosh, i had never seen so much blood and then to beat it all he is on that blood thinner, and i have blood in the bedroom, hall way, bath room, living room..blood clots, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh so bleach water is my friend today and i had to do alot of it last night...gonna have to go to the laundry mat, get the carpet cleaner out, threw things away.... Thank God he is gonna be ok, and what have you and the dr that did the scope is one awesome dr.....he said before he did the scope this is what it was gonna be...and it was....the ulcer is where he was hooked back up to his pouch, no pain at all with this ulcer....blood in his stools was his sign.....which he would tell me it was like a woman giving birth so i was only thinking he had such HUGE stools and why any blood....soooo watch out for bloody stools and tarry dark stools...he had 4 units of blood and 9 units of plasma and vit k to help thicken his blood, cos,his blood thinners had thinned out the blood soooooo thin due to it working on less blood than he normally had..the er dr said there was no time to even find out what blood type he was, he was in shock and he had to have O neg right now...his blood pressure was rising as i left, he is off the oxgyen, about 90% better when i left last night, he was white as a ghost, no color in him at all...

OMG!!! Thank God for Drs who know what the heck to do for us and thank GOD he wasn't so brave as to wait till you got home!!!!! Linda

Oh you poor thing!!! And poor Ed!!!! That's where I had my ulcer too...very painful and I was so glad it didn't start bleeding!!! To everyone out there who has back pain that feels like kidney stones....don't delay calling your surgeon...ulcers are deadly and no laughing matter!! And as with ANY abdominal surgery where a new connection is formed...it is a big issue until that connection is fully healed (12-18 months out). Prayers going out for Mr Ed and for you too Miss Angie Is Ed still in the hospital? You take care and make sure you get some rest!!!!

omg Angie! Hope Ed is feeling better this morning, and hope you were able to get some rest last night. Give Ed a hug from all us and let him know we are thinking about him. Hugsss Tammy

he is much better when i headed out last night...so i am sure he has only gotten better...great drs were with him....i will certainly let him know everyone asked about him....

poor ed cos he had to go through this...but awesome drs taking care of him...no question is dumb to ask or find out about when it comes to this surgery

Angie, please tell Ed that our thoughts and prayers are with him. Hope he gets healed up and out of the hospital real soon. Dan

Holy Frijoles! I sure hope he gets better soon! That would be so scary. I couldn't even IMAGINE coming home to find my husband like that. Big Hugs & prayers for you both!
