ER in Barrie the wait and the result....

Ok so you know why I went to the ER I had Kidney stones and nope not gonna enlighten you on that pain in the well... I just wont tell ya.
I will however blog about what I did in the time I was in the ER
and yep there is Demerol... mmmmm

1030 am:
I arrived at the ER
In Barrie you sit in Pink Chairs and they Triage you then they decide how urgent you are.
I sat down a few people in Ambulances came.. ( They kinda go first)
then finally the Pink chairs were approached beside me there was a woman with a bad back, a Guy with a Dizzy spell and then a young woman came in splurting blood from a obviously broken nose and a few cracked teeth.. I let her go ahead of me. She was sitting next to me sobbing and in obvious pain.. Yeah I was in pain too.. but dude she just lost her front tooth I cant even imagine that pain :(
around 1145 OK I get Triaged at ( Yep over an hour after I arrived)
they take my Vitals all is OK except I had a spasm durning the BP cuff so that raised it a bit.
( But it is a good thing because it showed how much pain I was in) she tells me to sit close to her and orders my blood and urine.
1215 PM I get my blood and urine done... then I get to sit and wait, I got to watch the wether network, eaveesdrop on a few conversations. A few people were upset about the wait, others were having idle chatter about crap like the Leafs ( Not my favorite subject) and of course I am so bored I grabbed the old Hello Canada Magaizine from July where they are mourning the passing of david Carridine and discussing the royals at a Polo match.. this is what happens when a Brit mag takes over the Canadian magazine world? really?? Dull!!!! But I did find out Shania is inspired by eating cans of beans and living poor as a child.. well OK Glad that was good for her....
130 PM I finally have to go pee.. ( OK I know I wasnt gonna say it.. ) well it HURT a LOT I told the nurse abpout that and that I seen REAL Blood and I felt faint and I threw up ...
Oddly she thought this confirmed something.. she tried to make a joke I would have lunged but I wasnt in the mood so I grimiced at her hoping the venom filled darts in my eyes shot her, but she wore two crucifix's I think she may have ben proteceted. she re-did my stats and found out that my BP was higher and I did have a increased temp by a whole 2 degree's.. I go back to my chair ad I watch as the ugly woman tells us about the cold snap and how some place in the ukraine has 50 cm of snow.. YES I did watch it! I also paced a little threw up once more. called Gordie to see how he was.
330 PM I was called in to the Isolation ward, and I thought.. why Iso? I wasnt contagious.. I was baffled... the Nurse came in did my vitals asked about a million questions, are you sexually active? how much do I weigh? and other rather personal and none of her business questions... then she got tpo the good stuiff, where is the pain, how long have you been ill? blah blah blah....
she does my vitals and just as she is done the doctor comes in...
400 pm he does the overview asks me questions and pushes down on my belly and I almost kicked his face in when he did that one..
" well I think you have kidney stones" I tell him about my pee eariler and that it hurt a lot I compared that pain to two other incidences but they were curte and I named them and brought them home, not this time...
he orders a CT scan.
he leaves.
530 PM I am taked to CT ( Pull up the wires on your bra, lay still, don t breathe, close your eyes... ) No this isnt a over demanding date its what the woman said to me... I get back to my room, and I have to pee.. I have to ask a nurse where the washroom is, I go to the washroom. this time it was not even half as horrible... but it didnt feel very pleasant just the same.
I still leave with tears in my eyes.. the nurse follows me and she came with needles.. Needles are nice when they have Demoral and some other muscle relaxer...
6 pm I call Jen I think I talk to Mike, he asks about the demerol. I got confused a little, I tell him I have to sleep so I roll over and I sleep.. I actually slept for the first tim,e in 5 days but for 2 hours doesnt really count
745 pm Doctor returns this time this guy was way young perhaps 30. he explains I already passed the stones teh CT scan shows sweeling but no remaining stones. he then tells me I have a LOT Of blood and White cells in my urine still as well as a strange Billirubin count he wants me to see my Family doc next week. and of course the traditional " If you get worse come back"
line.. he left I grabbed my clothes and I left quickly because I am not 100% sure they wont yell to get me to stay. that they didnt feel they did enough seeing as no one offered to cut me open.. no they wanted to leave me be??
OH Hell yeah I ran!
( As fast as I could hobble)

and in case you havent guessed I hate hospitals
