Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 I just called to speak with Brigitte and she is have a very rough time. Her IV infiltrated sometime during the night so she was not able to get the pain meds from the PCA pump. She suffered all night and at 10 this morning they put in another IV, finally even tho her arm was very swollen from the infiltrated IV site. She is having a great deal of pain and it will take some time for the meds to catch up. We all know how that feels. The surgeon ended up doing a lot more then they had anticipated but she was crying and in so much pain it was difficult for her to talk. The nurse came in while we were speaking to ask if her pain was getting any better. The poor dear is all alone and in so much pain it really broke my heart to speak with her. I told her I would call back tomorrow and hopefully she will have her pain under better control. Please keep her in your prayers she is having a really difficult time.
