I had a rough night last Tuesday night. I had a sore throat all day it kept getting worse. I went to bed around 11 and kept waking up about every half hour. 2am came around and I woke up again and realized I couldn't swallow, or breathe. I ran to my grandma and started hitting her (Lightly of course) to wake her up. She took me to the hospital right away just to make sure I was going to be ok! (Obviously I am ok!)
We got there around 3am. The doctor when I got there was concerned because I couldn't breathe, there is a type of sore throat babies get that kills them because something blocks the air way and they can't get enough air. I had that and a normal just sore throat. It was my whole throat that was infected. I told the doctors and nurses about what was going on. At first they took my blood and then they put that thing on your finger to test the oxygen in your blood, mine was still good. They tested my blood it came back that I had a lot of white blood cells in my system which wasn't good. They took a strep test and it came back negative. After all the needle poking and blood taking. They gave me a shot for pain and that made me super drowsy and tired.
After 35-45 mins passed the doctor came in and asked me how I was feeling, I asked him if dead counted. I felt like a total Zombie from that shot making me so tired but my pain went from a 8-9 to a 2! It was amazing. I was feelings great then besides tired and wanting to go to sleep. My doctor said that he was going to send me home with a few meds. Especially Vicodin for pain.
We left around 6am and got home around 7. Spending the night in the hospital for 3 hours is never fun! Trust me! I can't complain about bad service though! It was a very long night!!!
