I Got Out Of Hospital Yesterday

[Guest guest]

Hey everybody whats up? Thought I would update everybody on what happend

to me this past weekend & week. On Friday morning I was feeling a-okay,

I woke up and started to do routine things. I started to feel really

naseous and began to vomit uncontinually. by then my mom left me for a

couple hours to run some errands I told her I would be fine while she

was out. A couple hours later she came back and I was still vomitting

and by then I couldn't catch my breath like something was starting to

choke me. Mom started to be panicy and was going to take me to the ER

and was trying to dress me herself. All I remember saying to her was

call ambulance - call the ambulance then apparently I passed out

afterwards, I turned blue. The paramedics came and took me to a ER that

was close by in the area. If the paramedics didn't come when they did

they told me I would've died on the way over. I don't remember much

passing out but I remember a white bright warm light and suddenly I

heard sirens and the paramedics talking to me with the breathing mask

over my face.

I remember being hoisted onto the ER table at the first hospital - with

all the nurses trying to start a IV on me and with heavy heavy oxygen

going with a big ol mask trying to get me stable. I was in between shock

and unconciousness/conciousness I let them do whatever they wanted. My

poor mama I kept telling her I was okay and kept giving her thumbs up. I

was very talkative even though I had the mask on. After I managed to

kick myself back to reality I was stable enough they tried to get some

information from me. Finally I was told they wanted to transfer me to

the Hospital I always gone to, which was downtown so they were gonna

transfer me to downtown. They put me on the helicopter and flew me over

there, it was a very fun ride I was concious so I was able to see a very

pretty sunset. I was in ICU for 3 days and a regular room for 2 days.

Yesterday I was able to finally breathe on a cannula and stuff on my

usual 3 liters of O2. I got diagonsed with pnemounia, I still have

antibiotics left to take. Cause of my veins being so crummy they stuck a

artery line in my groin area. I watched them place it & thought it was

the coolest thing ever. Why I dunno, lol. They wanted to try and drain

some fluid that had started to build up but the radiologists disagreed

with the doctors saying it wasn't worth the risk to have my lungs

collapse. The fibrosis will always be around, but my right lung is

trying to rexpand so I've been having some extra pain with that. I'm

sure alot more happened but that is what I mainly remembered.
