So Day 6 in the hospital...things could be going better. First, I am walking a fair amount, but haven't passed gas or anything. I am starting to hear grumble noises, but doesn't feel like it's about come. Also doesn't feel like I"m going home on Monday. There still feels like so much to accomplish between now and then.
The pain is sometimes tolerable. had some complications. My veins are totally small. and shot, been pricked like 20 times in the last 2 days. like 6 nurses havetried to start iv's. one iv was leaking, busted, and now infected. have had a fever the last 2 nights, they are talking about puttinh in a central line, that freaks me out. did i mention i also have a panicky fear of needles. oy
i'm scared that im not getting better fast at all.
most of the pain is my whole s
abdominal cavity, and like that winded /side pang you get after running, but the front and back, like my kidneys. they did do a urine culture, came back clean.
oh, and it hurts too pee, at the end of peeing,a pinch and ache, lower abdominal area, not burning. think its gotten a little better since my epidural came out yesterday.
guess i need to whine and get some encouragement. very scared.
