Update on what the RE doctor said.

Jun 15, 2009

I don't know if you all seen my update on the other post, so i will repost it for you all. I went to the ER last night and had them check it out and they think it is either a bacterial infection, or yeast infection. They gave me both Diflucan and Bactrim to treat both. They took samples of my belly button drainage, but won't get it back for three days. They looked at it and said that it seems to be closed like the rest so they don't think the drainage is an infection. They gave me two bags of IV fluids and my heart rate was up over 110 when I went in and when they let me out it was at about 100 to 105. I am not in pain, I just itch like heck! I am still working on getting more than a liter a day in. I have been getting the shakes, but I have found that if I take my liquid minerals with some of my water the shakes go away, I think it is the iron in it.

I did send an email to Dr. Pomp with the pictures and an up date on what they said in the RE and he said that he agreed and I sould take the meds they said. He told me to try and eat more frozen stuff to help with getting more fluids. All of this from his black berry this morning at 7am. Then just a few mins ago Liz his/my NUT called me and talked to me about my concerns about my vits, mins, and protein. As well as getting my fluids in. She was great, real helpful. I am still itching like hell and using the Emla to numb it so I don't want to tear at my stomach! It leaves it only mildly itchy. I will be happy when this stop itching!! I am not worrying about carbs and they told me not to. I am just working on getting my water intake up, and I was told to make sure I am taking my B's, or chewing on my flintstones. The B's is why they want us to do the flintstones till we can get our regular vits down. I left some of my liquids in NY, my prenatals and B's so I am going to go to the health food store to get more ASAP. Not much else to tell.

PS If you haven't seen the pics in my last post take a look and make sure you remember what it looks like. I knew it was an infection because I wasn't hurting, I didn't have a temp of 101 or higher. It the wounds looked well healed. It was just on the surface of my skin, red little blister, welts, and itched like hell. TAHT is an reaction of some sort.
