ER Scare

I had been having a lot of abdominal pain. I went to a doctor last week. After an hour of questions asking, checking here and there, he sent me to the ER. He’s worried that my appendix is causing all that pain. Apparently, people can die from appendicitis and he made sure I got that in my head! So, did I get scared? Guess! I called Stakit but couldn’t find him; later on found out that he’s in a meeting. I managed to ask a friendly neighbor friend ;) to take me to the ER. She stayed until Stakit showed up. I guess she could tell how nervous I was. I was there for hours and hours for a CT Scan. 6pm rolls around, I hadn’t had any food (dr. didn’t allow me to eat) but they piped in a lot of I.V. in me plus the intestinal dye (just given by mouth and injected into a vein But no enema!) Good times, Good times! Result came in, no appendicitis, so no surgery! It was something else that will go away over time. I have been trying to rest and cure the pain at home.

The Dye that they injected into my vein got me kind of sick but I'm better now. I gained back my appetite but I still can’t sleep. I get up at 3am or so and can’t go back to sleep.
