Rest. *hugs* I don't like going to the doctors or anything. Reminds me of how my parents are hypocrites. I made a pun about it once. Hippocratic oath? More like Hypocritic oath. I have drunk a grand total of 3 glasses of water today, more than enough. As for rest, there is no sleep for the wicked. And as for feeling better, I feel a bit better now, been listening to Hamilton as I was working through my crap, head's alot better. I know for a fact that my pain comes in waves and always blows over in the end. *hugs back I'm sorry for causing you all unnecessary worry heh, Love you all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaymyth she/her Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Spent yesterday evening in the ER because I'm a storming idiot and was trying to cut acorn squash all fancy with a too-dull kitchen knife. The flesh of my left index finder is much, much softer than acorn squash. After about an hour and a half of pressure, the bleeding had finally (mostly) stopped. I managed to just barely avoid stitches; they glued me back together, added a pressure bandage, slapped a band-aid over the whole thing to catch any leaks, and sent me on my way. It's sort. Ow. I'm a moron. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorta stabbed that same finger, though the wound wasn't bad. But still.

What's the point of a good object lesson if you don't ignore it? seriously though, ow. Tbh I accidentally hurt myself more often with sharp knives. A couple weeks ago in a rush I slipped while using a peeler and lost some nail. That was.....fun....

Mestiv he/him Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 That's why I like super sharp knives. They a) cut what you want, no questions asked make you more careful around them and I didn't cut myself even once 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tristan Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 I'm getting an EEG done tomorrow and I'm quite nervous. Neurologist thinks I'm having multiple seizures a day. I went through a period where they told me I didn't have it anymore, and now it's back and a bit worse than before. That part isn't bad, it's just getting my hopes up that it was gone for good that's kinda bumming me out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrikerEZ he/him Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 So...I'm in the ER for my little brother. He's been throwing up all day and hasn't been able to keep any fluids in his body. After he throws up, he kinda turns white. I was at school when this happened, but my mom said that he had thrown up so badly that his lips had turned white and blue. They IV'd him up, and he eventually went back home, but we're back again because it's been almost 12 hours and like I said, he hasn't been able to drink anything without throwing it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a bacteria that's causing this, but I don't have a PhD or anything, so don't count my word for anything. What might be even more concerning if it is a bacteria is if it is antibiotic resistant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbird she/her Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 @Kaymyth If you're a moron, then so am I, because I did the exact same thing in art class with an X-acto knife once. Was cutting toward my hand, slipped, stabbed myself, and after bandaging my finger resumed cutting toward myself again. XD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain types of pneumonia can make you vomit, and if his oxygen is low his lips will turn blue. If they've given him medicine he could also be having a reaction to it. Is his mucus thick and white or rust/brown? (Going into nurse Tristan mode) MOVE ASIDE, PEOPLE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't know what color his mucus is, because nothing hardly ever comes up, but the cough sounds so painful. They gave him an antibiotic and sent him home finally, but there really doesn't seem to be anything wrong with him that they could find. Also, no, I don't know what antibiotic they gave him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mestiv he/him Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 @StrikerEZthat sounds horrible the cough sounds scarier than the vomiting IMO, but both are serious. Did the IVs made him feel better? I hope he manages to get some sleep and rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
