Well I woke up at 4 am completely miserable. Running a fever aching severely and every step I took my knee would give out. I said I couldn't take it and drove myself to the ER. Once in triage the nurse called another nurse in to recheck my vitals. I knew I was running a fever but had no clue it was 103.9 after a third BiPolar (BP) check it was 178/98 and my pulse was 131. They took me straight back and started me on uv fluids and did a flu swab. My BiPolar (BP) was up so high bc i was in agony thanks to my RA. Dr came in quick and started treatment. Gave me a pain shot and fluids and swabbed me for the flu.Also gave me a rocephen shot and decadeon shot. Before leaving I got two ultram pills and a script for lortab tamiflu and pack. I tested positive for type2 flu. I came home feeling horrible and took a shower so I wouldn't give anyone else anything from the ER trip. boyfriend came out making snide remarks saying "did u have to use all the hot water" and "your obsessed with the ER" I got mad and showed him my Difficult Child results he just walked off making snide remarks. I swear I wished for once he could walk a mile in my shoes! Not only does it hurt my feelings but it leaves me feeling abandoned when I need him the most.
Sorry to rant on here again but I'm just so sad right now and feel horrible.
