Still in the hospital!

Hey guys, sorry I forgot to post last night but I was hopped up on painkillers- that unfortunately didn't work and just made me nauseous.

*TMI WARNING*

I got a little sleep last night and then got sicker today than I have ever been in my entire life. I spent a few hours throwing up pure stomach acid, bile (did you know bile is neon green?), blood, and whatever was in my small intestines. I haven't taken any pain killers all day because I'd rather be in physical pain than even more nauseous. If I wasn't throwing up I'd definitely have been able to go home.

My doctor had the day off today so his parent was supposed to come see me but he never did. I'm worried the bile barf is from the stent, and I think I'm going to ask them to take it out tomorrow. I don't feel the pacemaker doing anything right now which is probably a good sign. I don't know when they're going to increase it's frequency. It could take up to a year for it to really help.

I'm not sure what the rest of tonight or tomorrow is going to bring, but I sure am tired of throwing up so hard the blood vessels in my eyes break, despite being pumped full of IV nausea meds. At least the nurses here have been really nice.

Every moment I stay here I feel dollar signs just flying our the window, but whatever it takes to feel better I guess. I hope my next post will have better news!

  2. Oh no, I hope this does not last! I'm sure the aftermath of any surgery is rough, so hopefully things improve soon! Will say a prayer for you!!
