I had another bowel obstruction and had to spend the night in the hospital last night. Luckily they released me this afternoon as I am beginning to HATE the smells and sounds of hospitals. The doctor on call for my surgeon was a crazy lady that made me so nervous. She seemed to have no idea what she was doing. She refused to give me any pain meds until I told her in a very sharp voice that she was being in-humane. Then she begrudgingly gave me some pain meds in my IV. That was after suffering for 6 hours with intense pain. They had to repeat the CT scan two times. Then after the second time she said I have no idea how to interpret the scan. She kept saying "I don't know what to do.... I am a surgeon and I am used to fixing things." She kept alluding to the fact that she needed to "open" me up to see what is going on. If that happened, I was going to have to run out of the hospital. There is no way that lady was going to come close to me with a scalpel.
Thank God I am back home but in a very crabby feeling sorry for myself mood. I feel like I can't take any more of this. I am going to try and get some sleep and perhaps I feel better with some rest.
