I am in the hospital going on DAY 6, please pray for me I NEED ADVICE!!
Hello Friends,
Today is day 6 of me being in the hospital, and boy does this suck!! Last Monday night I went to bed and I something felt wrong, my body just felt really achy, like hard vibrations going through my stomach and my back. Some of you already know that I have been dealing with chronic back pain since the birth of my third baby October 2008. But this pain was something from another world, more on a constant basis and not every so often. So I went to bed thinking that I would feel better once I woke up. Well I woke up the next morning, Tuesday and I felt 10xs worse! The same pains mostly from my stomach but multiplied. I took my percocets, that I get perscribed for my back, hoping that it would make all the pain go away and it did the exact opposite, it made things worse. So around lunch time things were so bad I had to put my 2 girls down for nap, crazy early because I just couldn't do anything. Then my son came home from school around 230pm. I had kept in contact with my husband at work letting him know that my pain was accelerating, and I didn't really know what to do. I had been calling both my primary care doctor and my pain management doctor since early that morning, and I was awaiting the returned call from both of their offices, to no avail because I already knew what they were going to do or what they were going to tell me. (You all know the feeling, the feeling like you are being blown off and like they really don't believe that you are in the pain that you are describing.) So around 3pm things were so bad as far as pain, I was curled in a ball on the couch just sobbing in pain, I called the urgent care and explained my situtation and the nurse is asking me standard questions, I guess, and then she said if I was just trying to get more pills then I would have to go somewhere else. I explained to her that the pills aren't working and I have pills, and i was in a world of pain, then I just broke down and started crying uncontrollably because here I am, going on hours of trying to reach out to the right people and this heffa is gonna ask me was I trying to score drugs, basically. Then she told me if I was in that much pain that I needed togo to the emergency room. So I called my husband and told him that I was going to go to the emergency room and that he didn't have to drive me because, he's in the Army and his company is filled with a bunch of buttholes that are always trying to give him problems for absolutely no reason! He told me to hang up and call back the job and tell them that I needed him to come home now, and I told him that I would just drive myself because I was in too much pain and too sick to jump thru all those ropes! But when I got ready to go I was in so much pain I could barely walk! So I ended up calling his job, crying, snotting, sniffling all over the phone asking them to let him off so he can take me to the hospital. So he gets home, gets me to the hospital. There were literally a handful of people in the emergency room when we got there, how in the hell was I in the waiting area for 4 hours and then in the back area for another 5 hrs. They hooked me up to IV and gave me something for the pain. They had me do an ultrasound and some blood work, and they said they couldn't find whats wrong so I could go home and if the problem came back for me to come back to the ER. I said, LIKE HELL!! I waited all this time and I KNOW something is WRONG. So you guys are going to have to come better then that. So they ended up admitting me, and they found out that I have a serious case of pancreatitist ( i know i spelled it wrong) . They found this out after the first 3 days of testing, and CT scans and MRI's. And yesterday they called themselves trying to ween me off of the Morphine and put me on this pill called trafalog or something like that it is supposed to be a non-narcotic but a narcotic like drug that is a long lasting pain reliever, and I ended up having an allergic reaction. my tongue swelled up and I was all jittery and my temp started going up, so they gave me some benedryl that knocked me out for about 5 hrs. Then I woke up they gave me some cereal, and guess what!! The milk was spoiled!! that put my stomach into a fit, and I was puking everywhere having convoltions!! And this happened last night 9/19 at around 620pm. but for the last 2 days 9/17 and 9/18 the drs were saying that it looked like the pancrititst was at the ending stages and it is almost gone, but I explained to the dr that I still feel exactly the same and I feel like they are trying to SHOVE me out of the hospital before I have actually been fixed! I have 3 babies to go home for and care for that I have been away from forever but I don't want to go home just have to come back with the same issues, and the worse part is that things could get even worse! I won't miss the constant waking me up to take my vitals, the terrible food, and the techs with the stankest attitudes! But I need to find another doctor that I feel like isn't trying to rush me into a "healing" when I know my body and things aren't right! They really don't know ANYTHING about WLS or their patients, and they asked me why haven't I seen a WLS physician since I moved here to MD, and I explained to them that I have tried but NONE of the DRs offices I have talked to here will take you on as a patient unless they did your surgery. So that kinda sucks for us military families that move around alot, so I just left well enough alone. I am kinda at a dead end, and I am not really sure what to do or where to turn concerning my problem. Here's the info to the hospital I know some people had requested it before,
Howard County General Hospital
5755 Cedar Lane
Columbia MD 21242

It kinda sucks that its times like this when you figure out who are your TRUE friends and who aren't. My hubbie has gotten me flowers, but all of these people that I have done so much for and given so much to, not one get well flower, or card or nothing. My OWN mother (whom I am estranged from) hasn't even called to see if I am okay, and I had contacted her to let her know that I am in the hospital with the problems I am dealing with. I swear I need some serious prayer.
Stay Blessed
