Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
Let us know about what the doc says at follow-up!
PS My hospital go bag always has a water bottle, phone charger, snacks & a big shawl type scarf. I get super cold in waiting rooms, always have. Stress is probably a factor too.
FIngers crossed for you all is OK.

He says that the scan looks okay but there’s some thickening somewhere, I didn’t quite understand what he was referring to. DH has a follow up visit with his doctor.
He did release DH to go home but he has four prescriptions that I will get filled tomorrow, ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, Zofran and hydrocodone.
Thanks to everyone for talking with me. It really helped a lot.
I started thinking about all of the ER trips that I did with my mom to the same hospital as tonight. Bad memories for me.
I appreciate the advice from all of you to call the ER number on the discharge papers and to take him into the hospital.
Hugs to everyone! Many thanks for being there for me.
We just got home. I’m going to crash under a warm blanket! It was freezing in there! I’m so glad that my husband was able to come home with me.
My husband is ‘Mr. Chill.’ If he says that he doesn’t feel well, I know something is wrong. So, going to the hospital was the best thing to do.
You could go home and when the doctor comes DH can call you and use speaker on his phone so you can hear what the doctor says .
Whatever you decide take care. Get yourself a cup of tea or something soothing if you can. I doubt the hospital cafeteria is still open but they might be able to get you something.
Maybe I will ask for a blanket. My husband told me that also. I thought that I would get use to it but I am shivering.
Llama,
I don’t know what is going on. The nurse said that they want to watch him and they are probably going to admit him. Waiting on the doctor to see what is going on.
My husband told me if I wanted to go home that he will call me to tell me what the doctor said. I don’t know what I want to do. Part of me wants to go home and part of me wants to stay with my husband.
It IS cold in hospitals. One time with my mother at hospital I was very cold - took hours to warm up.
Still waiting to speak with the doctor. I was hoping that he would be coming home with me tonight. Wish the doctor would come in and talk to us.
My daughters want to know how he is but I haven’t spoken to the doctor to be able to let them know what is going on.
Need: Prayers for DH.
He is in good hands at the hospital.
He will be OK.
He will recover.
He will be fine.
He will go home soon.
Keep us posted .
He will be Ok.
Will y’all please say a prayer? Thanks.
I didn’t expect this. I guess I am more upset because he had a good check up recently. Wasn’t expecting anything else to be an issue.
His oncologist said his numbers were good and everything since his radiation treatments awhile back for his prostate cancer.
I was so concerned about that. I didn’t think much about this procedure because it is a minor thing.
Sorry, I started thinking back about when I was so afraid for him. He was fortunate enough to catch his cancer early.
I have to go. Will talk later.
Good the doctor is calling back . Make sure whatever doctor calls back knows that his surgery was nearly 10 days ago .He should be feeling better , not worse
He is on the phone with the nurse telling her that his wife told him to call. You know how men can be. They try to tough it out at times.
The nurse said that she is contacting his doctor. I guess they will call him back shortly.
Okay. Gee, I hope that doesn’t happen.
I said not to give him anymore to eat or drink just in case the surgeon decided
to open him up to “ take a look “ inside .
He’s been achy. Isn’t that normal though? He’s telling the doctor that he has had pain and feels weaker.
He rotated with Tylenol and ibuprofen like the doctor told him to do.
They just told him to take his blood pressure.
I hope that he is okay. Are infections common after surgery?
