Embarassing...
Ok--so this is my night last night. We had an awesome time, went to Dave & Busters with some friends. Finally crawled into bed around 12:00, around 1:30 I am woke up with sharp, stabbing, shooting pain in my abdomen. It was terrible, I hobbled my way into the bathroom and thought maybe I had to go to the bathroom but couldn't. So I go back to bed, and the pain is just not subsiding. I woke up DH & he said I am taking you to the ER, I am not taking a chance, esp after ectopic surgery, or it could be your appendix, gall stones, or kidney stones ( DH is an RN).So we go to the ER, and they run a bunch of tests, everything came back normal & they think it was either really bad gas, I pulled something, or AF getting ready to rear her ugly head. Ugh! I went to the ER for gas! I was so embarrassed, they were glad I came in since I had the surgery, and it wasn't a chance anyone was willing to take. I didn't get home until 5:30 this morning & I am exhausted! I am so ready for 2009!!!!

Awww Les, I am so sorry. Are you ok? Let's leave this crappy year behind us!
Yeah, I'm fine. Totally happy that I didn't fix the damage my sister caused.
Sorry Melis & you know I love you but that just made me laugh my ass off! If it makes you feel any better and for fear of DH KILLING ME over telling this-he had kidney stones a while back twice-bad!
A few months back he was almost incapacitated by the pain of impending kidney stones again (or so he thougth). See he eats junk food and nothing healthy at all, no matter how hard I try. Damn him and his studly metabolism! So turns out that he was uhm....how should I put it...backed up! Too much junk and not enough fiber will apparently cause pain similar to kidney stones. So trust me, ER for gas, Doc for lack of bowl movements-it happens to the best!
It's better to be safe than sorry. And that's why we have insurance. I hope you are feeling better.
