22-5-2009 - My trip to the ER (last night)

My mood while writing this blog: yucky

Well I ended up in the ER last night due to dehydration. I had a very bad headache (which I still have it, but it's not as bad) dizziness, nausea, hot & cold sweats... I was pretty much miserable!

I took a shower thinking that would help me feel alittle better-well I just barely got out in time to pass out on the floor w/out falling. I laid there for about 15 min or so w/ my head in the trash can. I was finally able to get up to get my roomie to take me to the hospital. She dropped me off-it took about 10 min for them to get me in and to a room. The doctor was a jerk-but he took care of me. One of my nurses was adorable-she was 20 weeks pregnant-and couldn't help me sit up because of it! haha

She got my IV in, took some blood and I was on my way to feeling better. They gave me valium, tylenol & meclazine. I was there for a couple of hours just getting rehydrated. They did a CT scan-They didn't tell me about it or why we were doing it-but we did it anyway, I had 2 shields on so the baby was safe. since the baby is fully formed but just a mini baby right now-I wasn't worried about anything happening to it.

I have to take meclazine every 8 hours for dizziness-so that means no driving which means no school :-( oh well I'm ahead anyway so it's ok. I'm just trying to rest today-probably about time for another nap here soon!

But for now baby and I are both just fine, we just had a little scare last night and now we are doing much better!
