Melissa and I went back to the E.R. (at Tripler) the other night because I was in horrible pain. It was to the point where I couldn't sit, stand, lay down or anything without feeling as if something were going to rupture in my side. So, we go, wait 5 hours to be called back, and then the doctors run some exams and tell me they think that I have a bleeding stomach ulcer.
I'm still waiting for the GI Dr to call so I can make an appointment to make sure that is what's wrong but it's nice to have an option to think about. The Dr. at the E.R. did prescribe me Prilosec to reduce the stomach acid and it's been helping with the pain. The nausea is still excruciating but the pain has been reduced, a LOT!! :) Thank God! Again, thanks for all of the prayers because I really believe in the power of prayer!
