ER Visit

Mar 27, 2010

Well after gas has past, This annoying pain in my left side will not go away.  I took a walk yesterday and could not continue another step.  Excruiating, and I started sweating buckets(you think) I had ran a marathon is 105 degree heat.   This is not right so I called dr office who told me he'd check it out, come to ER.  Got to ER no waiting, Morphone immediate relief.  When the doctor came and pressed on my stomach was hurting to touch so he wanted to make sure that I did not have collection of pus indication of infection, a blood work.  Also do a cat scan to rule out maybe a hernia.

Apparently it was not a leak or infection after catscan and drawing fluid from my stomach no infection.  Strain I don't remember strain, But whatever fluid he removed had my tummy feeling better .  Oh and apparently my stomach is so large the strain is pulling my incision, so since there were not binders available at the hsopital.  I found my strecthy tank top and put around my mid section, It really helps.  When I hold my stomach up the pain goes away when I let go comes back and pulls me downward, so hopefully this will help until I get a girdle or binder.
