Pain be gone! (ie Oxycodone)
Mar 30th
Well, this Wednesday, I went back to the Kaiser ER again for horrendous pain in my side. They admitted me to the ER and gave me my first ever IV. It was an interesting feeling of the saline solutions coursing through my veins. It was like there was ice water flowing up my arm from my wrist, where the IV was put in. They gave me 2 liters of saline and some Morphine. The Morphine had NO effect on my pain (just to give you an idea of how bad it was). They ended up giving me Oxycodone, which DID take away the pain after 2 injections of it.
They did confirm kidney stones after a CT scan. I just have to wait for them to pass. I have been drinking a LOT of Cran-Grape juice and water to help them pass. Apparently, it is going to feel like I am giving birth when I do pass them! I am not looking forward to it. I have a prescription for Percocet, which will help with the pain if I need it. Lets hope that they pass with no pain, and I won’t need it.
Nightmares
Mar 28th
So, I woke up this morning after having a horrible nightmare. I haven’t had one of these for a long time. In my nightmare, Jess Camacho (one of my ex’s) died. His sister, Maya, also died. It was like everyone was dying. I went to their parents house and was looking at all the pictures on the wall and thinking back to how much he taught me and how well we got along. The random trip to Disneyland with both of them. The breakup that neither of us really wanted at the time, but ended up having to do. I am in a strange place emotionally today, I really want to cry, even while writing this. I had a bad feeling that Jess may have died, so I sent a message from MySpace to him to see if he would reply. I do miss him.
Now on to something fun, which I stole from Laura who stole it form Beth:

PAIN
Mar 23rd
All I can tell you is that I was in the worst horrible PAIN ever this morning for about 3 hours as well as some of yesterday afternoon. Apparently it may be a kidney stone. I need to go to work for the money and can’t afford to be out of work anymore. I need to get better.
