ER trip


Yesterday I woke up with pain in my frontal upper abdominal area. It usually starts on my right side and spreads across to the left side. I went in to the ER. They did bloodwork, x-rays, and an ultrasound and couldn't find anything wrong. I was there for 8 hours. They sent me home and said to take some motrin. *sigh*

On the way home from the hospital, Tyler bought me a sandwich from Firehouse Subs. Oh. My. Goodness. It was incredible. I don't like sandwiches, generally. My kids don't even get sandwiches in their lunches for school - I just don't care for them. I eat at Subway about once a year. But after eating this sub from Firehouse Subs? You better believe that I'll be going back. Their ham & turkey was so savory and delicious. Yum.

Last night I was super tired and fell asleep quickly - after my long day at the hospital - but I tossed and turned all night long. I didn't feel very rested this morning, even though I'd been in bed for 13 hours. (I KNOW!) I still have pain, but it's not as sharp as it was yesterday, & I can tell when my motrin wears off...I hope it will go away with time.

I hope they figure out what was wrong! I'm glad that you have motrin to help, at least.

Now I want to try Firehouse Subs, do you think they have one in Provo? Haha.

Oh no! Hope the pain goes away completely soon! What a scary thing that must have been - I'm glad you're on the road to recovery now. Sounds like Tyler has some excellent ideas about how to speed the healing process :-D Mmm...yummy food is always good, but it's especially good when you're feeling under the weather!
