Here we are at ER again. Mom's pain has gotten worse, she hasn't slept in 36+ hours and her nerves keep her from relaxing.
We checked in, they gave her Toradol and hydrocodone --- you'd think that would knock her out. Nope! They did an ultrasound on her leg and found a blood clot. She broke into tears. Her first thought was "why didnt they find this before?" Maybe it wasn't there before, mom. "So how did I get this?" Um, from all your sitting.
They admitted her, kept her overnight. But her mantra from the moment we arrived was "can i go home now?"
She was put on a heparin drip and more good drugs. But still no sleep. You would think even from exhaustion she'd nap? Nope.
She's finagling to get out ... but to do what? Go home and be in pain? At least at the hospital she can get help!!!
They said they would release her Monday.
