Raptorpat Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Be careful! I was on dilaudid when I had e. coli in college. The morphine wouldn't touch the pain so they jumped me to the heavy stuff and it hit real hard... at first. Within the span of four days, I went from completely glassing over when they shot it into the IV to being able to immediately get up and jump on the IV bag stand after giving it a good push and riding it to the other end of the room. The nurses were so concerned that they immediately tried to downgrade me to hydro pills and after I said the pills weren't enough, they gave me one last shot of dilaudid that night and said I can't leave the hospital until I affirmatively told them I don't need it anymore. In hindsight, their concern was probably the difference between me and the opioid epidemic. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vela Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 I've decided dilaudid is what I want kn hand during a zombocalypse...cause I can't feel shit but I still feel like I can get shit done. Also I think I mentioned this elsewhere but I'm not fixing typos tonight because it's awkward holding my phone w/the IV in my arm making the typos many. Imma embrace my typos...aw they didn't ask to be put there, come here guys, I luffs you now ^____^ little typo babies. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Vela, it's understandable. All we want is for you to get better as soon as you possibly can. (Well, that and to start drinking more water after this. That will definitely help you, even if you hate water because water really is your friend, so to speak.)

Nobody knows what causes them, all speculation. But they say it's hereditary and my mom has gotten them before. Mt guess would be it's related to my poor intake of water in general...I find the whole process of forcing myself to constantly drink water all day menacing. I just don't enjoy it.

Vela Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 Okay, so I'm out of the OR now. Procedure went well 👍 Not sure when I'll be released though. Im only just fully awake now so I'm with the nurses upstairs who haven't gotten an update yet. Lol, I do remember though that the first person I saw when I came-to was stunningly beautiful, like naturally beautiful and she was like, "You're awake, how you feeling?" To which of course I responded with, "You're so pretty 😍," then she patted the mound of blankets that were on top of me and said, "Oh thank you...you're still waking up." But no...that was a confident 'thank you' so she knows it but does modest really well! Also these people keep calling me young. I'm trying to figure out what their gage is. Lol, I keep telling them I'm not young I'm just short 😄 Like, do they mean too young to have a heart attack or something? Idk. But the nurse on duty for this shift introduced herself last night and then started treating me sort of like a little kid (which I mean I didn't hate) but she was like, "you haven't called me in once, you can press the call button anytime, anything you need let us know," I said I don't like to bother the nurses unless I need to and she goes, "You're young, you're not here because you want to be so I wanted to make sure you know that it's okay." Lmao...pretty sure I'm around the same age as this nurse. 😆 And then the anesthesiologist was going through the risks of the procedure and says, "but for someone who's young and fit..." which I just couldn't, I had to laugh and I literally put out my hand and said..."young. And fit? Pull your mask down and let me see you say that with a straight face." 😆 Atleast he knew he could joke around with me at that point. And who doesn't love a good fart joke, he had a few. It made the rest of the experience much less scarier than I had anticipated. But if these people keep treating me like this I might stay for a while 😄 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
