Hospital Stay

By Shannon | June 17, 2003

So .. my trip to the emergency room did not fix the blockage!!! Argh!!!

We went back to the hospital to see my Oncologist in the treatment center.
They hooked me back up to the IV and started pumpin’ me full of fluids again. I also had to drink this 10 oz. bottle of Magnesium Citrate (aka The Green Bomb). This was suppose to bust that blockage for sure. Well I managed to get 2/3 of the bottle down in about 3 hours and then started puking all over the place. :(

So they decided that they needed to admit me and keep an eye on me over night. It also turned out that my White Blood Cell count was low (0.7) which meant I was Neutropenic (sp?). This means I needed a private room and had to where a mask throughout the hospital.
(Na Na Na Na Na Na Stickboy .. Stickboy .. Stickboy .. nevermind .. )

So at 6pm there were no Private Rooms available so I had to wait in the Emergency Department. While in the Emergency Department I got to do lovely shots of something called Lactolose (sp?). I actually liked this stuff. :)

So at 2am I was finally shown to my private room .. and by 3am the Lactolose had done it’s job and I had EXORCISED the FECES .. :)

Needless to say I am home now and finally 100% better.
