Happy Birthday to Me!

So this is actually a bit late. My birthday was actually Tuesday the 12th but things have been a bit crazy. I took Tuesday off but had appointments surrounding them. One get rained out and then last night, after I had taken Kay in for surgery to get ear tubes that morning, I had to cancel because I was at the ER. Yep.. that's right! I went to the doctor because I had horrible abdominal pain and pain in my right side. I thought I was getting another kidney infection. But, my primary care doctor thought I had appendicitis and sent me to the ER (it was 5 before I saw him). He wanted me to have a CT Scan. Well, that came back that I had ovarian cysts on my right ovary. He gave me some pain meds and sent me home with direct instructions to make on appointment first thing this morning with my OB for TODAY. So that freaked me out a bit.. for good reason. I have a ruptured cyst that is bleeding and causing much pain. I am supposed to stay in the bed for a week and if the pain is not gone I got back in to determine if its still bleeding (typically these thing heal themselves). If so.. I have to have surgery to stop the bleeding. So right now it's pooling around some of my organs. It will eventually be absorbed but the more I move around the worse the pain is. Yuck.. so my birthday plans of bowling tomorrow night are over. I have to stay in bed. I promise I will return emails and phone calls as soon as I'm feeling up to it. Thanks for understanding!
