So since finding out I was pregnant, I have had to go off Motrin, and switch to tylenol. Which is like taking tic tacs for a headache. These past few days i've been so sick, and doing nothing but basically laying and crying on the couch. Finally yesterday, I went to the urgent care to see what the heck was going on. They basically said that I was pregnant and couldnt give me anything or even run tests. So i asked them to check my blood level while I was there. Wow low and behold a normal persons is 13, mine usually is 9's, it was 6.3. All of a sudden my room is filled with the nurses and Dr's and I get taken by ambulance to the hospital.
Im all alone and luckly the nurse called my hubby, and he showed up about 30 min later. I was there for about 7hrs and got two units of blood, and got an e.k.g, apparently you can go into heart failure or have a heart attack. even when i left my nurse taught me to check my own pulse. My heart was still fast.
I was in so much pain there.....they didnt give me tylenol until 9pm...and it only helped for 1hr. i was just laying there and crying, i wanted to seriously claw my own brain out. Id rather go through birth, then have a headache like that...it was hell.
so now i still take 2 tylenols every 4 hrs, even at night, otherwise the horrible pain comes back. But on the bright side, I am finally off the couch and can do normal stuff again. Like we went to lunch today, i and I felt fine...super tired, but fine:)
