[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 187098, member: 1157"] They admitted Oldest to the hospital last night. I'm going to see her at lunchtime. Spoke to her boyfriend this morning, he said they were waiting for the doctor to come by to talk about test results etc. I have such mixed emotions here. I am worried about her, as always, but know she did this to herself.. so it's an odd mix of frustration and anxiety. And lots of deja' vu. I am trying hard NOT to panic about her future. One day at a time here. Re the IV pain medications and controlling them in-hospital: her tolerance is so high that when in the hospital (as she has been, often, for her Crohn's), you wouldn't believe how much demarol or whatever they pump into her and STILL she feels the pain. After a certain point, it makes her irrational and nasty. She wants more more more and even when she can hardly keep her eyes open from the drugs, she is telling them she is still in pain. When it gets to that point I stop visiting her, because I can't take it. Not going to think about that now. To top it off, Youngest is having health difficulties as well, she still has pretty severe pain from her laproscopy. She's having trouble breathing because of the pain/ressure radiating to her chest, they did chest xrays yesterday. The doctor is going to call her today (I'm guessing the fact they didn't call her after the chest xray means it's not TOO serious). I'm just numb. And worn out from keeping my grandson 3 nights in a row. I love that kid. but man, I'm too old to chase a 17 month old around for long lol. I have plans tonight with friends, another concert ... so Youngest's neighbor is going to keep my grandson. The distraction will be good for me after this rollercoaster week. [/QUOTE]
