Adventures
So yesterday I ate breakfast then started vomiting and could not keep anything down, not even water. So this afternoon I decided I better go to the ER because I knew I was dehydrated! So they did all the tests and sent me for an ultrasound. Well at the ultrasound the sonographer asked what I was being seen for and I told her I can't stop throwing up. She said well I don't know why you are getting an ultrasound it won't make you feel better. Well when back in my room I told the nurse she wasn't very friendly and she asked what I meant so I told her. Apparently my nurse was very unhappy that I had been treated that way so she notified her boss and they come in to talk to me. I think I inadvertently got that lady in trouble but they said she didn't need to take it out on you. Anyways they diagnosed me with a UTI, Hyperemesis Graviarum (extreme pregnancy sickness), and a Subchorionic Bleed. Subchorionic bleed is a small clot located in the placenta and can cause miscarriage but likely will dissolve itself. The nurse at the clinic said this could have been the reasoning for my earlier spotting. I am on pelvic rest and need to follow up for it and I already have another ultrasound for next Tuesday. After getting sent home with antinausea medication and an anitbiotic I am feeling much better.
