I had probably the worst Thanksgiving possible. Tuesday night I went to the ER because I had some horrible pain in my right side. They end up admitting me because my gallbladder was horribly inflamed and filled with gall stones. So I had surgery yesterday at 10am-ish so I spent that same day in miserable pain and extremely unhappy. I actually got to come home today but there was really no point in celebrating Turkey day since I was gimpy and not really able to eat much. So now I'm on Vicodin for the pain and Amoxocillen for antibiotics.
I was told to take in deep breaths and cough to clear my lungs and such but after awhile it hurts so I have to quit and just deep breathe. Not too mention I have a drainage thingy stitched in to me to catch any drainage from the surgery and it'll come out in about 10 days. So at the moment I'm miserable, using a heating pad, trying to deep breathe and cough, very hungry, and extremely worried about school. I can't drive, I can't do any heavy lifting for 2 weeks, I can shower but I have to have help so that my drainage thing won't hang and pop out so I also have to keep it pinned to my shirt.
So my past few days were hell, I did a lot of crying, I know that in a few weeks I'll be glad it's out but right now I'd just rather be in a coma until the pain goes away lol. Luckily for me I have Toby and my dad to help me get through this horrible ordeal.
I almost forgot. The night before I got to come home my IV started leaking so they had 2 different people try 5 different times to try and get a vain but to no avail. Because of that my left hand is swollen and my feet are swollen too because they had my feet in almost blood pressure cuff type things and didn't take them off of me until last night.
So now I'm home and nomming on leftovers even though I'm craving two double cheeseburgers with extra pickles, a large fry, and a sweet tea. Yeah I'm starving for fast food but they want to keep me on a diet type thing but I could go for some Mickie D's right now.
I'm going to head off now I need to get up and walk around and do my deep breathing coughing stuff. I'll try to update later if I'm feeling up to it.
