more pain
May 20, 2011
well, i had to go to the ER yesterday, my surgeon was not in and the other doctor that is usually there was not in either. After spending about 3 hours there, 2 tubes of blood and a urine sample, i finally got tylenol 3 big deal! they did give me vicodin while i was waiting. Anyway, tylenol 3 didn't touch this pain. So in the ER the PA i saw told me to follow up today at general surgery, i called them this morning, my doctor is still out but they had a doctor on call. The man at the front desk told me to be in by 11am, so i rushed and got in there by 930. I saw the doctor on call, he said it is quite red at my incision site, i didn't notice. I also told him tylenol 3 is CRAP, he gave me oxycodone/apap which is what i had after RNY and my TT. He also gave me antibiotics 4 a day. I just hope this pain and swelling go AWAY. Its been 5 weeks now! Today i looked more at my belly and it is swollen and warm feeling mmmm??? i don't know. The doctor i saw today told me to come back in Monday at 9am to see my doctor. My labs last night came back normal, so who knows! not me, that's for sure!!
