Had to go to ER, PLEASE don't push it!

Ladies PLEASE take it easy! Even if you feel great on the outside and may have no pain on the inside does not mean you are healed.
Had been feeling great, no pain, stitches dissolving, staying up for most of the day, even started driving. At 1:30 am had to wake DH, I was bleeding heavier than I ever had in my life. Had to phone the big Chariot to get me to the ER quickly. While waitng for my ride, I lay there shaking, partly from fear partly from getting ill seeing so much blood.It turned out to be a blood clot broke loose and the flood gates had opened wide. (18 days after surgery).
I aslo went to my DR this afternoon and she said everything will be ok now, and to call if there are any concerns.

So PLEASE do not push yourselves, you have to take the time to heal properly!

Hi Sue,

Bless your heart...that must have been frightening. I'm glad they took good care of you and you are back on the road to recovery.

Please take it easy and rest, rest,
Will say another prayer for you that all continues to go well.

Blessings,

My husband is a chariot driver, and believe me, he has seen lots of calls like yours. I hope you are able to relax and recover after your scare!

Oh I am so glad you are ok. That must have been terrifying. Please, please, please take care of yourself. Recovery is hard enough without having to recover from your recovery.

I can just imagine how upset and frightened you were. I'm glad you are alright and you have given some good advice...I think I could be one of those that does stuff even though I feel fine. Thanks for sharing.
