ER and Ames

September 13th 2001 / 3 minutes to read

Well, i went to the ER yesterday, around 9am I had some pink on the toliet paper, 11am bright red blood, NO clue where it was coming from, I thought it could be a UTI but I didn’t really have any symptoms, so matt took me to the ER, I get hooked up to the fetal monitor and have my temp and blood pressure taken, I then am given a catheter, the nurse was REALLY good at it, didn’t tear me and make me bleed all over the bed like the guy in July from the other hospital did, so then she needs to get blood from me,she tries my right inner elbow NO vein to be found same with my left inner elbow, so she says I will wait until after your pelvic exam and try to get blood then, so I get the pelvic which HURT! *she didn’t do it* and then the guy felt me and my cervix was hard and closed and NO trace of blood so we at least know I was not bleeding from my vagina at all, thankfully! so then she tries for my blood again, NOTHING in my inner elbows, then she finally resorts to the newborn pediatrics needles, trys my right wrist, got a vein and literally NO blood came out, so she finally goes to the top of my left hand and right in the middle was a vein, got SOME blood just enough for the tests,she said I have the veins of a 90 yr old!and that for some odd reason my blood is not circulating,sooo lala my tests all come back and literally NOTHING was wrong with me, they THINK I was bleeding because my urethra was probably tramatized back in july at the other hospital and that since I urinate so much it was probably irritated beyond belief!! nd then today matt got paid woohooo! so we got a joint checking account FANTASTIC free checking and just for getting it the bank puts $5 in it! a really good deal, so we got me subway heh and a nice ice filled coke at mcd’s then we went to Ames *this store which is going out of buisness in PA* and got this silverware set,utensil and knife set *40 pieces* nd there was SOOOO MUCH MORE I wanted!!! But we are waiting to get a place first and next week things will be more cheaper, they even had like onesies n stuff!!!
