Tired & Frustrated!!!

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Looks like I'm in for another long night. I went to the emergency room last night for vomiting and diarrhea and of course the gall bladder pain. It was all in my back and front and hurt like hell! I could barely drive myself to the hospital. So I get there and they do bloodwork and then set me up with a mild pain killer,nausea medicine and some fluids through an I.V. I'm back to normal within the hour but still dead tired. I get home around midnight. I was very careful today about what I ate and stayed away from greasy foods thinking that would keep my gall bladder happy. Nope! Here I am after feeling dead tired at 9 pm and falling asleep for 45 minutes only to wake up with the starting of gall bladder pain with the same nausea and eventual vomiting. I'm miserable and in about 30 minutes or so I'm going to be in too much pain. I just want to cry! I'm so frustrated because I don't want to go to the emergency room again. I'm too exhausted to drive so this means I'll be up all night!! The doctor told me they only take out gall bladders if they absolutely have to in pregnancy. What does that mean? That I'm going to have to have no sleep because the pain won't go away? I just want sleep! I can't lay down because that's when the pain gets worse so I just have to sit up and be tired.

I'm so sorry you are going thru this gall bladder pain is so horrible and to have that on top of being pregnant is just way to much.

I hope you can find a way to get some rest

Brittney, do you have a recliner? You might try that for sleep... Since you won't be laying down.

That is the worst pain, especially while pregnant. I had it in the end of my pregnancy with Nick, and had surgery when he was a few months old. I stayed pain free if I ate foods that had very low fat(almost none). Also when the pain was to much I laid in the bath with warm water and that helped a lot.

I hope you feel better.
