Well joe called Ron this morning,as it looks there keeping him another day there plus while cat scanning Ron they found a sist on his kidney..So please keep Ron in your prayers..Ok just saw this on RCU,Rons quotes)==Here I am! I finally got a laptop in my room as my cell phone doesn't do websites very well, mostly just Facebook.
OK, here's what went on. Somebody was being a smasrt-ass in here but things started going bad on the throne Tuesday afternoon. I had a lot of pain in my large intestine then broke out into a sweat, started shaking, dizziness then my palms broke out in a rash, then my feet before starting up my legs. I looked like I had been out in the sun all day by the time that I got to the ER. Being a previous heart patient they automatically are on the look-out for that but I told the attending Doc that it wasn't heart related as I had no symptoms. Well, about 1-1/2 hours later, boy was I wrong!! That's when the chest pains started. In what I thought was a rare move they shot me up with morphine as I hadn't had any of that since passing a kidney stone. Yesterday morning they ran me down to the Cath Lab and found 2 blockages, one that had been closed up for a while and one in a graft (bypass) so the doc spent a few hours working on those. I was pretty much out of it during the procedure although concious, that was some good stuff!
OK, now to today.
tueday night they did a CT scan to check for abdominal problems and found something else they didn't like to a little while ago I had an ultrasound done as they found a cyst on my left kidney. What is going on there, I don't know as I'm waiting for another doc to come up and talk to me once he compares the CT to the ultra-sound
Right now I won't get out of here until tomorrow sometime so I'll have to put up with a crappy hospital Turkey Day dinner. My wife is supposed to smuggle me up some real food later.
Jamie, I'd rather be working! I had today off anyway but was going to go to work tomorrow but that got shot in the ass as tomorrow is triple-time pay!
I hate laptops but it'll have to do for now. I may have to share this one as somebody stole the other ones off this floor. Got some but not many hot nurses up here, maybe I'll get you guys some shots of them!
