Turns out I’ve been having a crohns flare which I knew but tried to just put up with. But tonight though it’s gotten the better of me so I called my GI doctor who told me to come to the Emergency Room.
Luckily for me the hospital ER which is usually packed wasn’t too busy so as soon as they triaged me I was sent to a room in the back and saw a doc. I got an IV steroids and boood drawn, since I’ve had so many CT scans they didn’t want to give me one so I got X-rays instead. But it turns out those results were not clear plus my lactic acid levels were and continued to be too high. I had to drink two huge cups of barium mixed with water and now waiting another forty minutes before I go for the scan.
needless to say I’m in pain and not happy as crohns sucks. If you’re around please post jokes or videos or whatever to help me take my mind off everything?
