Well it started out early morning around 1:30 - 2 am I am not sure of the exact time. My dh woke me up because he was in intense pain. I got up to get something for him and he told me that there was blood in his urine. So off to the hospital we go. I called my friend to see if the girls could stay there while I took my dh to the hospital. I took them there and got them settled in.
Off to the hospital. We get there at 4:00 am Filled out all the paperwork and within 15 minutes he was in a room. It took 2 hrs just for them to get and Iv into him and draw some blood. Meanwhile I am in the waiting room because I wasn't allowed back to see my husband. That was after about 45 adfter he went in. My nerves were so frayed at this point because I was tired and worried sick. I was in tears for the next hour.
I will explain my worry. 1 - they are telling me nothing, 2 - My DH has Vonwillowbrands disease which is like Hemophelia. So anytime he bleeds I worry and 3 - He and the girls are all I have so If I loose him I have no idea what to do. We have been together for the last 17 years so we have made our life together and I know no other way.
So after waiting there for 2 hours a nurse finally came to get me. The same person who said I couldn't see him the first time tried to stop me again. I wish I wasn't so distraut at the time. I would have loved to tell him what a jerk he was. I was so happy to see my dh. He tells me that they think it might be a kidney stone or possible appendicitis. The first one while bad is not as serious as the second. He cant have surgery unless it life or death because of his bleeding disorder so it not something I really wanted to hear. Well I waited at the hospital for 4 1/2 hours with him and the only thing the had done wag give him iv fluid and pain killers. He told me it was still another hour after I left to get the girls before they took him for an ultra sound and xray.
So after that long wait and all the testing abull it took them 20 minutes after we left to get money for his doctors note for them to tell him that it was a Kidney Stone and that he had probably already passed it before we came to the hospital. He spent 8 hours at the hopital just for that. We are both in need of sleep but cannot. So we will have to wait a bit more.
I also wanted to ask the doctor a question but couldn't. When I had my sugery I only got tylenol 3's for the pain. He gets a kidney stone and he gets demmoral (sp?) Not fair!
Anyway we are home and he is on the mend. Sompe well wishes would be very appreciated. He is still in a lot of pain..
Thanks for letting me share.
