You should definitely get your antidepressant changed, Prin. That's one group of pills that effects everyone VERY differently. If anyone else in your family has ever taken anything, ask what they had - if they had good effects, you might as well. The first one I tried was a nightmare that gave me insomnia, but then I mentioned that my sister was on Lexapro, and that's worked well for me since.

Yeah, but it's not so much a fetish, as I just find them cute. Perhaps it is considered a fetish by some people, lol

Oh, I'm already on ativan too. I got put on that after I had a panic attack that sent me to the Er because I felt like there was a weight on my chest and I couldn't breathe.

no. because every time i have pain, my normal kidney doctor has me do tests. even if i have a sterile sample with blood, mayo refuses to see me because "there is nothing they can do." which is why my doctor sends me to mayo because "there is nothing he can do." i've been having the pain on and off since last december when i had my last lithotripsy. :(

and what sort of reasons can you think of for someone going in for a post op check up (for ovarian cysts) to need to have a hysteroscopy?

Hi, all,

I'm posting from here in a hospital bed. Around 5 pm last evening I felt some abdominal discomfort. Around 10:30 it exploded into severe, severe pain in lower abdomen feeling like gas pains on both sides of my stoach and lower back traveling down to my scrotum. I was screaming for hours and I vomited about 9 or so times in three sessions in front of my toilet. I woke up Caity's gastrologist around 3:30 am and he told me to get to the emergency room immediately. Around 4:20 I arrived in the hospital and was seen right away. Everyone at first thought it was kidney stones; however C/T scan, bloodwork, urine sample said it was appendix! I was operated on about 7 am. I am recovering well and just had to take some pain meds just now b/c I was ambulatory. I should be dismissed tomorrow.

Thank you! So far all is looking well. :)

Dilaudinum(?) feels like a buzz when I get it, lol. It's only my third dose since the surgery. I is proud of myself :)
