I think I'm never going home

I've been so happy thinking I was going home and then the dr comes in and tells me my magnesium is extremely low and I can't leave until it is ok. I have been getting magnesium thro iv every day and they saying my stomach is not absorbing the magnesium. I seriously cried and begged to leave. Now I'm sad and time seems to go by so slowly.

Oh hun...i know u want to go home so bad and i dont blame u. You have been thru hell it seems. I can only imagine. Hang in there... im sure they just want to make sure your body is ready. Did they say if they are going to do anything differently to bring ur mag. Up? I do hope u get to go home soon but want u to be healthy too when its time (((hugs)))

Have you been in the hospital since your surgery in August?! I am so sorry to hear you've been there for an extended time!

HUGS TO YOU!!
