Spent the Morning in ER

I woke Tim up around 1:00 and told him it was time to go to the ER.  I just couldn't stand it any longer.  The pain was getting worse.  I got to the ER at 2:15 and was there til 9:00.

The doctor said that I had passed a stone, but the reason for so much pain was the kidney infection. I had to get an iv antibiotic before leaving, and sent home with two prescriptions Cipro and Lortab (or that's what he did have, but I don't know what he changed it to due to needing liquid).  He said he couldn't give me anything for nausea, because of the medicine or something...  but that if I got home, took the Cipro and it did not work, If I threw up, I had to come back and be admitted.

 

Tim dropped my RX off at Walgreens to be filled and now is on his way to pick them up.  Bless his heart, he didn't go to bed until 11, and I got him up at 1.  He's exhausted, I know....

Ouch. 

I'm glad you are on the mend -- pesky gallstones and kidney stones....so far so good for me.  But I understand a kidney stone isn't something you want to mess with... I hope you are feeling better now.  Get some rest.

Mel,

Hope you recover quickly.  I had gallstones years ago and know what kind of pain stones can cause.  Hope you are better to bring in the new year.
