Frying pan vrs fire.
K I would like to say my recovery as I hit the 3 wks mark on Thurs Jan1 was nice. But momma told me to never lie. Id actually say the physical healing is fine. But thanks to the flu, the UTI and now the major hormonal upheaval is just murder on the body. I had to run to the ER again sunday night after I couldnt stop vomiting after 2 hrs. I swear they think Im faking it. Dr said this is my second visit in a week, I get to stay. So with zolfrom (my friend) and a morphine drip ( my realllllyyy good friend) I spent all of sunday and most of monday. Room mate from hell. Found my my sister in law works on my floor and just a miserable time all around. So while waiting grumply for 1 of the 4 drs that came to see me and dont have a clue, to let me go home. I have an attack. My poor cubby sitting there waiting to take me home. I started to sweat, it was just pouring off me, which then makes me nauseous and crampy and I start bawling. I knew that I wasnt going home now. Cuby was laying cold cloths across my neck, they would be hot within seconds. The nurse came a running as I now throw up what little they let me eat. I yelled at cubby to go home and I ll call her. The nurse is really worried, I get a new shot of zolfrom and a new shot of morphine. Now im shaking and i cant focus my mental skills on anything but tryign to not fall off the bed. My room mate is on the phone yelling at dietary to bring her a sammich. The nurse brings in ice pack adn they pack my body down with cloths, ice bags and towels. Finally the morphine kicks in and Im just a blob on the bed. Dr shows up an hour later and asks what was I doing lol. She says since I keep sweating then get sick to my stomach sounds like hormones or lack of. So today I get script for hormones. I cant fill them til friday no spare cash. But hopefully keeping my body cold will help. Then to cap it all off?? My 9 month old kitten Simi (means lil demon) decides to go into heat for the first time. So to the sound of her yowling and being all lovey dovey Im curled up in a ball in bed. But for some reason, her yowling reminds of me the room mate in the hosp. I wish I could sleep. I had a dream I was changing into a ravenous monster and was tearing my ex husband to a bloody pulp. I felt refresh when I woke lol.

So sorry, it sounds like you are living a nightmare. It really is too bad the hospital didnt have any samples of your meds to help you out. Did you mention to them you didnt have any funds for the script right away?
I hope you stay in bed with a cool gel ice pack, and some cool clothes. Do you have someone around to help you right now? Sounds like you could really use a helping hand.
Atleast you had a somewhat releasing dream!
Sending you hugs, and wishing you better days ahead soon!
