Nothing like feeling horrible then suddenly feeling like your are going to die. Our house has been Smack with the stomach bug. I will spare you the details but the trash can and toilet were my friends. I passed out several times(at least 12). My husband took me to the ER after, I threw up just one more time. My husband help me get in our van while my sweet daughter got towels and more bags just in case.
Our town recently starting getting these set alone ER clinic type things.
My husband went inside to let them know,I needed a wheelchair . I held my head so the bright lights wouldn't make me feel more sick. The motion of the van and wheelchair ride certainly didn't help. I was severely dehydrated, low blood pressure,and white blood cell count was up,oh joy. Now,I get two bags of fluid,nausea medicine,three blankets,bottled water,only if, I promised to wet my mouth. Blood taken,urine sample,and oh yes,please drink this nasty water mix we need a ct scan. I went in at 9pm and didn't leave til four in the morning.
I do have to say,they treated my husband and I, Very well. Made sure I had enough blankets as long as no fever. Asked my husband if he needed,blanket,pillow,or a drink. As we are waiting for this lovely contrast to go through my body. My daughter texted us she has just now gotten sick,oy.
As we are leaving the registration lady gives my husband a goody bag for me and my nurse hands me a blanket with their logo on it. The waiting area was so pretty now that I was able to see it but glad to leave.
My kids seem to be much better as in tolerating food and just moving everywhere. As, I am sick to my stomach,tired,and just feel blah,sickness always hits me hard.
