The only ride that we went on was the ferris wheel but it was fun!
Then we just decided to walk around and people watch when we came upon this booth. Really?! Seriously, who would go to the fair to get diagnosed with ADHD and trust it? Its not like they are going to give a prescription for Ritalin on the spot. Really whats the point? Anyway, it was shortly after this point in the evening when I started to get really sharp pains. I little bit thought I was having a heart attack, but obviously that would not be the case. Well, these pains continued through the night. Sunday I did not have any pains but I did not feel right. Then Monday morning the pain returned with avengance. Since I work at a doctors office I just went into work. I already had a surgical follow up appointment with the surgeon set up for later that day and since the doctor I worked for thought nothing was wrong with me I decided to bump that appointment up to my lunch time. Next thing I know....
Yup, after seeing that the whites of my eyes were yellow and reviewing stat blood work I was directly admitted to the hospital. Yay for me! These pictures are terrible but they sure represent the amount of pain I was in before the Morphine!
I was there for about 4 days. It was so not fun. They would wake me up every few hours for blood work or to get my vitals and or give me more anti-biotic. Pretty much they believe there were gallstones left over in my common bile duct which is connected to my liver (I think). All that pain was me passing stones which in turn made my liver freak out. I am so glad I have a great co-worker and family who visited me regularly and a wonderful husband who had flowers delivered to me, visited me on his lunch break and spent every single night on the couch in my room! Once again I am feeling much better and hopefully there will be no return trips to the hospital.

OH my gosh... you poor thing. I remember 2 months after Jackson was born Matt and I were at a John Mayor concert and had to leave before it was over to take Matt to the ER to have his appendix removed, while they were in there, they found a "mass" on his colon. Not good news. anyway, things are fine, and it felt like we lived at the hospital.
Sorry for that long comment. Hope you are feeling better.
man, we hope that was the last of your gallbladder related hospital visits! We hope you're feeling a lot better!
