Dead memory **** Krystal

I told Krystal I would update everyone for her today.  She is finally in Seattle getting checked out:) She has made it to the hospital and her iv is in and lads have been ran.  She is waiting to have another ct scan (this time with contrast).  The nurse said she has a big lump that was "weird" by her incision.  She will get to see her NS today:) Let's send lots of prayers her way for the medical team treating her and or Krystal:) I will update you as she tells me to.

She just got done with ct scan:) she said she will let me know as soon as she has results.  I am doing fabulous thank you for asking.  I am down to taking ibuprophin and a muscle relaxer at bed time and maybe once during the day if I feel really tight.  The biggest thing I have noticed is you get wiped out and need to sleep.  My husband usually sees it on my face and says you're done let's go:)

Hospital NS just came in to speak to Krystal and wants to review CT with her NS before discussing it with her.  She has an appt later with Dr E but may get to see him in ER since hospital is consulting him:)

Dr E is ordering a cine low study for Krystal to see if her surgery corrected her flow problem.

Krystal said that then Dr E would then know if it was necessary for another surgery.  Also said may be necessary for infection.

I'm doing great. I know that there were times before when I took it easy a few days in a row I felt better too so I am just hoping that when activity increases symptoms do not.

To poster: thanks for keeping us informed. I've been worried about her a lot. At least she is in the hospital where they can keep an eye on her. Sorry to hear your not well either but I know the feeling about being tired all the time. I come home more times than not wanting to go to sleep and that's just from school. My hand surgeon is tomorrow and he drains me more than any other doctor. Ironically his the easiest appointment. Xrays bilateral yep have the xrays and than he says nothings changed and see you in 3 months.
