I know a few of you were wondering, so just wanted to share an update. I was discharged from hospital on Wednesday after 4 days there. Still no real answers, just tons of tests. On the bright side, the tests did rule out most major things i.e. cancer, etc. Now following up next week with more outpatient tests. No new bleeding which is a very good thing.
I did keep pumping and even though my supply is way down, I am able to do about 30-40% breastmilk. I am glad I didn't stop, and although I'll probably still stop very soon since my supply is lagging so badly and I have more fasting next week, I'm glad I didn't make the decision while in the hospital.
On the positive side, getting sick and having to fast is a VERY good way to lose baby weight :-)!
Thank you guys for all of your support!
Re: Update
So glad to hear that the big things have been ruled out. T&Ps for you and your doctors that they can at least give you a diagnosis, and that whatever it might be, is easily treated. Hugs!
I'm sure all of your boys are happy to have you home.

Oh I am SOOO happy that you are going better and that you are home with your family again. I am also glad to hear that it is not anything 'major'.
I am glad that you are happy with your decision to keep pumping while in the hospital. In the event you wanted to try relactating/upping your supply to continue, there are options, but no pressure... just message me if you want more information.
I am praying that the worse is behind you now and that you are on your way to mend/full recovery!
