Anyway I had been throwing up a ton. I was feeling so super sick I could NOT keep anything down and I was having a miserable week. Finally I got so sick of being sick and throwing up every sip of water I had I decided to go to the hospital and get things checked out. Needless to say I was very dehydrated and my heart rate would change drastically between sitting, standing, and laying down. I knew I was dehydrated and I knew before I even called to come in that I was going to need an IV.
Well long story short I got an IV. Funny thing is I was going to be so mad if they sent me home without it. I did not want to be given pills and a go home note. I wanted the IV. Am I crazy. NAH when you felt like I did I'm positive you would have wanted it as well.
And of course like a nerd I took pics. But anyway I had to have 2 full bags of fluids. (2 Liters aka A LOT!) They also put some anti nausea meds into my iv as well. I kinda think the student doc thought I was kinda loopy. I wasn't loopy I was just feeling better. I felt lots better when they gave me some apple juice. I love apple juice and after barfing everything up the past couple days it was the best thing that stayed in my system ever.
I did end up with some meds to help me keep the nausea away. Only thing is I hate meds. I hate meds so much that I don't take vitamins. But I have taken a few and I am feeling better. I just don't take them as often as I should.
Anyway that is my story.... I wanted an IV and I'm glad that I got it. Even though my bruise is sticking around to tell me otherwise.
I'll be sure to hid these pictures from Ryan. He wouldn't like them ;) glad you're feeling better!!
