    Back from the hospital, again!

    On Tuesday, I was having another painful attack. My medication wasn't working, so at 4:30 a.m. David took me to the ER. I just woke up from a nap, but got to come home at 4 p.m. this afternoon.

    It wasn't a bad stay until last night when I was moved to a room with an older woman who had surgery to correct a bowel obstruction. She was vomiting all night and then, well the other end all day. I felt really bad for her.

    It was my typical attack, it just got out of hand because my new meds weren't strong enough. I have to meet with my doctor next week about that.

    Anyway, I just wanted to update you. I posted in General late Tuesday and was pretty frantic. I didn't want anyone to worry.

    I am feeling better this morning. I'm just worried the pain will come back and I wont have the medication to deal with it.

    I'm really looking forward to starting my new job on Monday. I'll try to stay focused on that instead.

    I don't know what pain meds you have but I have heard that if you can take them before the pain gets out of control, like when you first start feeling it, that it works better.. Can you try that next time you feel it coming rather than wait till it gets really bad?

    That's exactly what I do. When the meds don't work or I don't catch it in time, I end up in the hospital.

    I am glad to hear from you Kelly. I did read about your attack in General and wondered how it would affect your new job!!! So good to know you are feeling better and have not started the job yet - I had no idea - GREAT! Now - I have said my prayer to ask God to please help you keep the pain under control!

    Thanks guys, the kitties are being perfect nurses. I don't think Micah has let me out of his site since I've been back. For the first few hours I was home, he sat there and stared at me, it was so wierd.
