Friday was rough for me. I ended up being sent to the ER from urgent care. I've been having back pain and it moved to my chest which was very similar to when I had the embolism's last April. When my blood tests came back elevated for blood clots I was sent to the ER to do all the testing. I was there from 7 pm until 4:30 AM...long night.

Thanks Goodness!! they didn't end up finding anything wrong. Better safe than sorry. :)

Sorry I missed panera coffee, I was excited to go and meet some people...I'll make it next go round.

Oh Man,

Glad you went in to get checked out! Did they have any idea what it was if it wasn't an embolism?

Hope all is well now!

They thought it may have been a combo of a few things...Gas issues I have been having since surgery causing pain and being trapped, and also sleeping differently to avoid my tummy. I was a tummy sleeper before, and I've really been avoiding it for the last few weeks since surgery.

Did they tell you that you could chew GasX.....I had to chew them a lot in the begining......I also had bad pains, only it felt like I was in labor....

oooh, you poor thing, that sounds awful! 

I'm a tummy sleeper too...and don't worry, within a few weeks you will be back on your tummy getting a good nights sleep.

hope you feel better soon!
