ER

Yesterday I went to the emergency room. I called my surgeon and told him about my extended nausea. Because it had been so long since I had been able to keep anything down, he told me to go to the ER and get fluids, and an upper GI to make sure there wasn't a leak.

Looooong story short, there was no leak, and I was discharged 8 hours later after receiving two liters of IV fluids and nausea medications - one of which I had an allergic reaction to. I now have anti-nausea medication to take if the nausea reoccurs. I am taking today off of work because the doc told me to, but I am trying to get some schoolwork done in the meantime to prevent me from falling even further behind.

I feel much better today, but I haven't tried to eat anything yet. I've been drinking fluids.

Hopefully my boss doesn't get fed up with me about all of this.
