Carrie, I hope you know that we all care about you...and we just don't like to see someone we care about in pain for so long. I'm glad you are getting into the ER for fluids. At least you are doing all that you can, within your own power to keep yourself as healthy as possible under the circumstances. I'm sure this just seems like a nightmare for you...and it must feel like it never ends. We're here for you, sweetie...giving you support in what ever way we can. I know the doctors feel like you can wait that long but please...listen to your body. It's your body, not theirs and only you know how you are feeling. All I can say is listen and be very attuned to what your body is telling you...and if you need to go and camp out in the ER, then do it! You hear? We're all just so worried about you, Carrie.
