You guys are gonna love this....

So I do at least call my mom to wish her a happy MD....but later that night I had severe abdominal pains and was rushed to the ER monday morning...in and out of conciousness from the pain...

They did pre-prep for possible surgery as my BP was 88/43 ....Cat scan revealed 2 cysts (larger than golf balls) had burst and were hemmorhaging (sp?) ....DH and I had been ummm ...."intimate" Sunday night, so I teased him that he'd given me one "explosive evening" for MD! :O

I'm home now, nearl;y bed ridden...on Morphine, Glucophage, and Valium. But I likely won't be online for a few days as I recouperate ......Thay'd given me a size 18 needle, which I overheard the nurse explain to the Phlebotomist (as I was in and out of conciousness) that it was in case a blood trasnfusion was needed.

I've never passed out before from pain, but In that moment I seriously felt my body separate from my mind (which was alert) and become unresponsive to my thoughts....I really truly thought "so, this is what it feels like to die"....My brain was so much more alert than I could have imagined, but I was totally disconnected from my body (not out of body, just trapped inside)

There was no warning signs....except I had been thinking with my growing tummy and weight gain and no monthly visits that I was probably pregnant......um....NOPE not pg...
