Thought I was going to die
Well I have been in terrible pain for the last week. My right side hurt so bad I thought I had a tubal pregnancy. I called the NP at my GYN's office and she wanted me in right away. Well I just started a new work assaignment and couldn't miss any time. So I went to urgent care after work on Friday and did the whole pelvic exam and peed in a cup. The Dr. was concerned so she sent me to the ER. I would spend the next 8 hours being proded and poked. Forced to pee in yet another cup and than finally dracula took some blood.
By midnight I had, had a ultra sound and a CT of my entire right side. I had been forced to drink that horrible glow in the dark stuff. They told me to take my time so I wouldn't dump.
So after all the test and everything, it turned out to be an acute UTI that moved into my bladder and kidney's. Thankfully it wasn't a tubal or my appendix. They said they look fine and healthy.
All in all it was really frightening not knowing what was going on with my body. So it's Darvocet and Cipro for the next few days.
