14-9-2009 - ♥ Dr Appt For Spasms? 9-14-09 ♥

My mood while writing this blog: ♥ Achey ♥

---

♥ So I went to the clinic this morning. At first I think he thought I was BS'ing the whole thing because I walked in with just a slight limp. ( The pain from my spasms and everything has started to go down my right leg now ) So I sat down and started telling about my spasms, my vomiting and fever and yadda yadda. Well he starts pushing on my back and nothing, just a little tender. Then he makes me sit at the end of the table and does the leg test. He had me push and pull and lift my left leg. I got that bad boy so high I could have been a Vegas Showgirl. lol. Then he did the right now. I barely moved it and when it came to raising it, it barely went up. He just kinda looked at me. You could tell I wasn't faking it either because the harder I tried to move it the more my leg shook. Then he said " Okay, lay on your back and Imma press and check you abdomen.That's when all hell broke loose. He touched my scar from the C-Section. I didn't realize it was that tender but apparently it is. Wasn't to bad though. Then he pushed right below my belly button, right under my right rib cage, and directly between my belly button and my boobs on my stomache. All 3 spots I never flew off the table. He had that " Oo this could be serious " look on his face. We talked about my last AF and so he did a urine test. BFN. THEN the fun stuff. He says " Well, I think you need to have a CT scan done and some blood work. But first I want to do another test to see how urgent of a matter it might be. I want to make sure you're not bleeding in your abdomen. So we're gonna need to do a rectal exam. " FUUUUUUUUUUN. As if my husband doesn't do that enough for me already. lol. Thankfully that was negative as well...no bleeding. So they have me set up for Thursday morning to get blood work drawn and do a CT of my abdomen. I asked what the blood work was for. He said for white blood cell count and things of that nature. So I said " You think you could throw in a HCG test ? " So Im getting one of those too :) Heres the thing. I didn't get any drugs, since he doesn't know whats wrong with me yet. So Im still in pain. Do I call in to work still ? I stayed home today obviously. I'm thinking about calling the Drs later and asking for a slip saying why I was out and what not and having them fax it to my work. I mean. When talking about things that COULD potentionally be wrong, he mentioned my Appendix ( which I still have ), kidney or liver problems, gallbladder, or something because all those things can occur right where Im hurting. He also said I could have multiple scarring from the C-Section that is starting to stretch and cause me pain. He even made a comment about I could just be full of stool as well, but that doesn't seem likely seeing as I haven't had any problems going as long as Im eating. And Im able to eat again so that's good. He also said that we get results for everything 24hrs later. So hopefully by Friday I will have answers. I just told DH, I hope that they find something because I could finally get myself treated. But at the same time I scared they'll find something and its serious. He responded by saying " They better find something otherwise you're just turning into your mother and its all in your head. " Don't get me wrong, he's not as insensitive as he seems. I just think right now his head is thinking financially instead of health. We're moving into a new house in less than 30days and money is diffinitely a big issue in the house right now. That's pretty much everything in a nut shell. I think Im gonna go take me a percocet my mom gave me and go pass out for a bit. Maybe. Maybe not, might just wait and take it tonight. I was feeling 30% better this morning until the doc started pushing on everything trying to find where my sore spots were....well he found em, and brought them back to life. Jerk. lol. I'll keep you ladies post dated the more I know. ♥

♥ OH! He also asked me how I was dealing with everything. If I had someone to talk to and share my feelings with. So I told him about the IMP website and how I met a whole bunch of wonderful women who have been a tremendous help along the way and I wouldn't have been able to do it without them. Also it was a lot cheaper than an actual therapist :) He was glad and said you all sound wonderful :) ♥
