Good news and a laugh

My mom is still doing well. She wound up being admitted last night because it was so late, they didn't have her bloodwork results, and she was on a lot of pain meds. She's kept down some juice, and she should be able to go home this afternoon and get her endoscopy done as an outpatient procedure.

So here's the laugh.

Last night she got in, they gave her the once-over, got her some drugs for the pain, and then had her give a urine sample so they could check for a first round of things that might be wrong.

The doctor comes back in after those tests were run and says "Mrs. Bugsmom, when was your last menstrual period?"

My mom replies "three years ago."

And the doctor says "Do you have any idea why your sample shows that you're pregnant?"

And my mom, in her drugged stupor, just laughs at him.

She's not pregnant. It was just a lucky false positive. No baby sibling for me.

That's funny!

I hope your Mom is starting to feel better and they figure out what's going on.

Really? How odd...

Glad to hear that she's going home and seems to be doing better!!! What a relief. Hope the endoscopy goes well!

They did a blood test to make sure her hormone levels weren't somehow related to the GI problems. Nothing was off at all, so it really was just a total fluke.
