Good Morning everyone. Well, I guess with her being so upset yesterday, she forgot to tall me she was going home! Yup, she was released at about 4:45 in the afternoon. Not a happy camper and feels like she was betrayed...

They cut her back to 1/2 of the meds she was being given, and the amount they sent her home with will last about 3 days, not the 2 weeks as they have them prescribed. The pain clinic docs have said they will keep her medicated so we shall see.

She's still very upset, but not crying, more angry now, but at least she did get some sleep last night at home. I'll keep posting for her as she wants to get caught up and a little less foggy and then I'm sure she'll be telling the rest of her tale of woe.

I've sent all the messages and she is very greatful for everyone's care and support. It will be hard, as she did have the rod removed as well, but she'll do it. She's a fighter. Thanks everyone.

Oh! I forgot to mention that she thinks she has the flu on top of everything else. I won't get into graphic details, but I guess her tummy is VERY sick, bad cramping and ALL the other lovely symptoms.

Just what she needs trying to run with a new hip :DOH:! More later...

Thanks for update Janet !!! I'm sure being sick on top of it surely is not helping with it. I had that on my 3rd day home and being sick from (both ends) does not help. I sure hope her pain clinic helps her through this. She is one tough cookie that is for sure.

 

[Jaycey]

Oh man - she must be spitting mad! :hissyfit: Maybe all the meds are causing the stomach issues?

Tell her to call her GP for more meds. Surely he knows her needs and should be able to get her something fairly quickly.

Please give her our love and tell her to hang in there! :console:

 

[Lindawalms]

xooox,
Linda

 

[Jaycey]

Aw Linda, hang in there! Right now it seems impossible I know. But things will get better and better.

In a week I'll bet you feel 100% better. The first days are always the hardest - you know that. Take care and rest, rest, rest!

 

[Jamie]

Sending you lots of ((((HUGS)))), Linda. Don't worry about being angry and all that has happened right now. Plenty of time for that later when you feel better. Just try to rest as much as you can.

 

[nanamac]

Yup, she's pretty much defeated right now. I haven't spoken with her since this morning. Don't want to wake her if she is ablt to sleep. She is definately heavily medicated, it's just not helping her pain any.

So frustrating...:arghh:, especially after they told her thy would give her a higher dose! Thank goodness it the last one!

 

[newnee]

Tell Linda I hope she gets feeling better soon. I am sending prayers and hugs her way

 

[Josephine]

I'm praying this will be sorted quickly, properly and adequately, Linda.

 

[Victoria-R]

LINDA!! YOU DID IT! I have been thinking of you SO much even though I kind of de-evolved the last week and just sort of hid under the covers for DAYS. Better now. Over the moon that you were able to have the THR. You are going to get stronger every single day and the pain will ease bit by bit. In the meantime you raise all the hell you need to in order to get as comfortable as possible. I'm going in this Tuesday - surgery was delayed a week - an insurance cluster *&^$! Thinking of you every single day! Love & xo's, Vicki

Hey Natalie,

I just saw that too when I looked. Wow it was at 2 in the morning so she must have been in a lot of pain. Hope to hear someting soon.

 

[Jaycey]

Very worried - this doesn't sound good! Janet if you hear anything can you please update?

 

[NatalieMeadows]

I wondered what time it was in the US as It was early morning here.
I've emailed but heard nothing back I'm praying everything is ok xx

 

[Juliep]

It was 2:18 a.m. when she posted so who knows what time she had gone it at? Hopefully the will get her taken care of. Hopefully she has been heavily medicated and maybe sleeping right now.

 

[Suzieslips]

Bumping for news.
And hoping that all is ok with Linda.

 

[nanamac]

This is the first I've heard! I did not hear back from her yesterday. I still haven't heard anything today. Gee, I hope she is ok...:prayer1:

As soon as I hear anything, I will post, promise...
