So on Friday I felt a little better waking up... less bloated, so less pain and less nausea. Matt & I went to the store in the AM. After a couple aisles I go wait for him in the car. Then at home I do some laundry to get caught up.
But it all catches up with ME. I should have just rested! I start to feel sick over lunch time... and by mid afternoon am ill again. Worse, a lot of fluid is gathering in my back so it's not even comfortable to lay down or sit. I have to be in the recliner with a pillow behind me...
Friday night is awful. I sleep in the recliner but am restless; then I wake up in so much pain that I'm throwing up for hours... :( :(
Early this morning we head to Rockville again. We are in no major rush b/c we know we'll have to wait 'til others are finished. I take a pillow with me for the chair & bed. First we go to the 2nd floor to get bloodwork (they check CBC to make sure my organs are okay) and an ultrasound to check fluid levels. This time the fluid has gathered on my sides. They send us to the 4th floor. When I get there they immediately come back and give me my IV & Zofran for my nausea... just walking to the bathroom makes me seasick.
Luckily we only have to wait until 2:00 for my surgery. They take me back and drain 3.1 liters. Luckily, it's less! Our beta today was 333! It more than doubled!!!
