One Week a go today I was in Asheville emergency room thinking I was going to be soon having surgery for a revision. It has been a long week that is why it has taken me so long to blog about what happened. Friday I though I had a headache from water in my ears which I have had before and I put some swimmers ear in my ear in to dry up the water. I have blogged on this before. It is a crazy headache. The headache did not got away so I put the treatment in again. Still thinking it was water. The headache was getting worse though. Every time I tried to move my head would pound. I was nauseated and dizzy. Saturday I could no longer lay down in my bed so I gave in and was rushed to Ashevilles emergency room. Their CT scan showed I had slit vents and they suggested I see my surgeon as soon as possible in Charlotte. So when I was discharged from Asheville ER we got on the road to Charlotte. As I write this it seems kinda simple now but I was screaming in misery in the fetal position for 36 hours during this time. I made a few texts to my niece and friends to keeps them from worrying but I was begging for surgery. I was begging to be knocked out. I have a high tolerance for pain but I could not take it. I had my Momma crying because I was hurting so bad. I was admitted to the hospital in Charlotte my surgeon was going to do a test because he did not totally agree with Asheville's CT he had me scheduled for ICP monitoring. Then for some reason I broke out in a sweat right before I was going to my room for the night. And I fell asleep. The first sleep I had in days. A week later I still have more than normal headaches and I have been really tired all week. I don't know if I had a virus or a blockage that past on its on. I'm just happy there was no surgery. My friends were asking for prayer request my niece was asking for prayer request, it really got me when she told me the Little girl she had not been getting alone with was praying for me.
