BACK to the ER...


Back to the ER... I woke up again around 3 am and was having pain... waited until 530 and woke up hubby to please take me to the ER. We went in and my blood test results showed slight elevation of numbers for my liver and they did a scan and ultrasound to find several stones in my gallbladder. According to the scan, it looked like a large pecan seed sized stone, but on the ultrasound, you could see several in there and the walls have thickened, which from what I have read on the Mayo Clinic site, sometimes comes from being infected. Wonderful. Next step? Calling the surgeon on Monday to schedule surgery. This can be done as outpatient surgery, however, due to the thickened walls, they may have to make an incision, which for me would mean a much longer recovery period. It was a rainy day here, which sure fit my mood... We needed the rain, as the garden was getting dry...
