Just got home from the ER

[Kero]

I don't know what the heck was going on, but I had to go to the ER tonight to get pain relief. Felt like something was trying to claw it's way out from my lower right hand side Man, that was awful. My appendix is fine, bloodwork and urine fine. They have no idea what is going on. My appointment at the end of the month with the GI can't come soon enough.

Now back at hoe, doped up on morphine and torodol. Gonna try and get some sleep and hope it's ok in the morning

Oh my god Kero, I'm so sorry.

At this point it sounds like they need to give you a colonoscopy and just stripmine your TI and ascending colon to find the disease. I'll put you in my prayers if it's any consolation.

That's awful! Did they give you a CT scan or ultra sound?

I'm so sorry to hear this Kero.. What checks did they do ?

I'm hoping you had a good sleep and your feeling better today.

I know you've recently had a scope which didn't give you the answers you were looking for.. do you have a plan in place such as more scans or maybe a pill cam? If not, make sure you talk to your GI about the next steps.

I really hope they get to the bottom of this soon for you!

Glad you got to go home. I hope you found some relief!

They checked my blood and my urine and did an X-ray to check my appendix. Everything came back clear I have an appointment on April 30 and will hopefully have a permanent GI. I am feeling better today, but then again, I haven't eaten yet. Still a bit tender there. I am just so frustrated, I feel like the doctors think I'm crazy

I hope you can manage to eat something, keep it simple, something low in fibre and easy to digest would be good.

You aren't crazy, no matter what the doctors think. We know your suffering is very real and we will support you the best we can.

Xray wouldn't show crohns so don't worry if they didn't find anything. Hope you find some relief before the 30th! Nothing like being in your own bed. I can't wait to be back in mine. Crossing my fingers for Tuesday night! The beds they give us parents in the pediatric ward is not very comfie!

If they are anything like the cot they gave my hubby when I had my little one, I definitely feel for you

Thanks everyone for the support, I really needed it today
