My week-long hospital stay! =(
Well...I had an appt. at my OB/GYN's office on Monday 10-8. I had scheduled it because I thought I urinary tract had come back. Plus I was having some pretty interesting back pains. Fevers, chills, aches, & shakes, too. Well, I thought they'd hand me an RX for some antibiotics. Nope. What I got was an admission into the hospital. I had Pyelonephritis - a nasty kidney infection. Not good for mommies & unborn babies. One of the doctors that came to check on me during the course of my week-long stay told me that she had a patient lose a baby to my very same affliction. *sigh* It was awful, lots of crying, back pain, missing my boys, terrible hospital food, & recovery.
I got to come home today (10-13) at like 7:00 AM. Man, am I glad to be out! I feel like I was in jail, lol. I didn't think I'd have to stay so long. But the important thing is that I feel 100% better. I think in combo with all of the antibiotics that they shot me up with through my IV with plus the supply they prescribed me with...the infection won't have a chance to reappear. So, just in case anyone was wondering...that's where I was!
