I think ER employees ought to have a choice as to whether to treat a patient or simply let Darwin win the night. :hi:

My director would never go for that. He would lose way too much money from that 😂. I usually make a 14g my stupid tax for people

Haven't had that happen yet, thank God.

Stomach pain still running 0-3/10...but just feel like crap and get gassed easily. Is that from ulcer/hp or antibiotics?

Take last dose of antibiotics tomorrow morning. Looking forward to my first cold beer in two weeks tomorrow night!

Why haven’t you had a beer? The ulcer?

I would wait 48 hours after your last dose. That's how long Flagyl (metrohoweveryouspellit) stays in your system. Can cause some pretty nasty side effects.

Thanks!!!

I guess it will be mimosas with Sunday brunch!


Update:

OK...One beer and three glasses of wine over 6 hours and all's well. Until this ulcer thing showed up, I always said I had a cast iron stomach. Hopefully it's back!

Some things that’s come through the ER really make you say what the literal ****.

Two 10 year olds were brought in because "daddy was under the blankets licking my private parts." 😐

This is the type stuff that people should be put in the center of town and burned at the stake for. I'm all for a fair trial,but it's hard for me not to side with the children when things like this come out.

This is a type of mental perversion/sickness that needs stamping out. If a human has this type of hunger than they need not be allowed to live. That or marooned on an island with only people with the same issues.

My wife had to rush me to the ER last night after dinner. I had severe abdominal pain that felt like it was going up in my ribs/chest. I have never been in so much pain in my life. I thought I was having a heart attack. It went away after about 20 mins after I got to the hospital on its own.

They did an EKG, normal. Chest X-ray, normal. Blood work showed high levels in my pancreas. They diagnosed me with pancreatitis, acute. They didn’t do an ultrasound of my abdomen but they believe that it may be gall stones.

Anybody ever experienced something like this? I’m afraid to have my gall bladder taken out.

Damn! Hope your diagnosis turns out to be a favorable one, SDV.

It isn’t a big deal. I mean it sucks. Mine had been acting up a year or more and I honestly think when they did my first scan they missed it. I saw the report and I think it said full of stones. They said that initially then came back and said it said normal no stones. Anyways. I struggled every night - around 1 am- for the next few years. About 2 years later I had a horrible attack and left work. Had no bowel sounds and they thought it was something bad.

2 days later had it removed and have been pain free since.

TLDR, I know. Just have it removed. I did think I was having a heart attack about 3-4 nights/week. I’d lay over the back of my chair across my diaphragm trying to relieve the pressure. It got to the point there were nights I’d go out and walk around my cul de sac in case it was a heart attack. Figured someone would find me laying there and call 911

Wow I can’t believe you suffered that long. That’s crazy! Glad you are better now. Thanks for the info though.

co worker just 3 weeks ago -- the infection had spread and they told her if she had waited 2 more hours she may not have made it -- had it removed and a tube put in for a week to clean out the infection-- if it happens again dont hesitate to go to the ER again

My sister is having to deal with this right now. She went to have an ultrasound and they gave her a dye. It's supposed to process fairly quickly but didn't. They waited a good half hour and it never processed through the gall bladder properly.

Saw my primary doc today. He thinks that I simply had a gallstone lodged and then it passed. Didn’t seem too concerned. Giving blood work and having an ultrasound on Friday to check
