guess it is a virus
I went to the ER finally 'cause I felt so crappy. The doc agreed it was probably a virus but did some blood work. He agreed I'd probably feel better with some nauses meds and IV fluids and it was a pretty good ER visit, especially compared to my last. So I feel better wtih some fluids in me. They said something has been going around, they've been lots of stomach issues lately. Nice to be told I'm kind of normal for once.

I went to a different ER. I live in a small town and there is one small hospital in this town. The next small town over has it's own small hospital and my nieghbor recently told me she drives to the next time when she needs an ER. So that's what Mike and I decided to do and I felt the care was much better. They got me right in, did everything I would have wanted them to do, and got me out the time fairly quickly. I'll be driving the extra 10 minutes from now on when I need an ER, for sure.

Hi Kelly,
Glad you are feeling better and got good help this time. Sometimes it really does just take knowing where to go.
Just want to let you know also that I'm thinking about you and hoping everything is working out better. I'm spending more time on the Exercise and Fitness and Over Fifty forums so don't always see your posts. But I'm thinking of you.
Take care.
