So last night about 2am eastern time, I finally couldnt take it anymore, the rectal pain. So I got up and woke up my mother and got her to drive me, because if you've been to the ER then 90 percent of the time they wont even give you phenergan and let you drive home, more or less pain medication.
I had taken a couple perocecet 10/325's but there is sort of what I call a threshold where at that point, oral pain medication just doesnt work for me, and if it does, its not much and for a very short amount of time, at the same time as taking 45 minutes or so to start working.
So I went to the ER. They gave me fluids 12.5mg of phenergan which I try to say isnt enough but they insist is...I guess they havent looked at my file. Then they give me 1mg of dalaudid which I say isnt enough and they say it is...soo that 1mg of dalaudid lasted about 20 minutes whereafter I paged the nurse and told him that I told you so basically, he said I was going to have to wait to see the doctor, that was about 3am, and I didnt see anyone else, even a doctor until they changed shifts and then i saw one at almost 8am, got home around 10 am this morning.
The next shift doctor I had had before, and she always gives me problems about pain medication, and I just so happened to not bring my pain management dr's card. But she pretty much asked me, and told me she wasnt going to examine cuz she knows how progressed my disease is and how painful it is for me. She says I'll be right back comes back with the right amount of phenergan and 2 mg of dalaudid, and kept coming back with daluadid about every 30 minutes, eventually switching to zophran for nasuea because she didnt want me getting phenergan to close together, which was fine, but it was just money down the drain out of my insurance's pocket because it doesnt work.
Then I go to leave and the same doctor, this women, always, well I shoudl say never takes me serious or something, because she will NOT right for pain medication, not even like 10 to get me till the next day....but needless to say, she wrote me for 2mg dalaudids, 20 of them, I mean honestly pill form dalaudid doesnt work for me at all, but it was the principal that she believed me this time, and ironically this was probably the best she has seen me, i've gained about 40 pounds since having her last.
Dont really know what this post was about. sort of venting but dont want to hide it away in the 'vent away' subforum. Its really nice going into a ER that your used to, and they know you, they try to get you in faster, they seem to go out of their way to help you.
Well I guess I'm done. Hope all is well with everyone.
