Still Struggling With Mystery Stomach Pain
So apparently my body has decided it likes to stay at The “Ritz” a little too much. Sure, its got housekeeping everyday, attention at the push of a button, comfortable room, and even “room service”. Ha! Unfortunately,I’m here for stomach pain and my one night stay turned into an “extended stay”.
I’ve now been at St. Joes since basically Friday. I was in the ER Friday, stayed for 12 hours and then released. I went right back to the ER on Saturday. The docs can’t figure out what’s wrong with my stomach. They think it may be some kind of pancreatitis, but not sure. I’ve had a multitude of tests and nothing seems to stand out. Saturday, the pain in my stomach was so severe I was doubled over, sweating profusely, swearing all sorts of random things, and crying. I saw white lights and stars. I literally thought to myself, “I am dying! This is is what it’s all about?? There’s no peace in this! I see white lights, but I’m in pain!” My poor father and sister rushed me to the hospital. I can’t even imagine how they felt watching me experience such pain. When we got to the ER I was admitted pretty quickly.
They shot me up with Dilaudid and Fenergen for nausea and I was out.
