It amazes me, in the time it took to post this you could have called the doctor, and been on your way to the hospital, Im pretty sure there are no doctors here that would risk a living guessing at your problem.

Yikes...

This is the running amount of money saved by not having to spend so much eating out. Number based on spending $20 a day on food. And that very conservative!!!

I'm a nurse and I am saying call your doc. You don't typically have pain that you are describing as excrutiating for 3 days and it is nothing to worry about it. Please, please, please call your doc or go to the hospital.

Since I know you are the type to appreciate straight talk -- Go to the ER! Duh, what did you think we were going to say?? Come on!

That said, I really hope you are OK. Please let us know what the ER says. Crossing my fingers for you...

I got a message from Kelly and she was having her sis bring her into the ER. Hopefully everything is ok.

Just wanted to let all of you know she is getting help.

Have you spoken to your surgeon? I've found typically that ER doctors don't know much when dealing with a GBS patient. I doubt you'll even be able to see this, but should you get a chance...get ahold of your surgeon.
