I need to vent, I guess. I've had serious diarrhea for six weeks and went to my primary doctor twice in the past two weeks. Labs came out normal. I have been severely dehydrated and lost 9 lbs last week.
So tomorrow I'm scheduled to see a GI doctor. But last night I passed out and my boyfriend found me face down and bloody .... and apparently I was completely out of it. I have next to know memory of this but he decided to call 911 for an ambulance because I didn't recognize him, didn't know what year it was. Oh and apparently the paramedics asked me who was President and I said John Travota ?! lol, I guess. The nurse told my boyfriend I was "whacked ." CAT scan back normal so I could go home and I'm lucid now. But man, I'm feeling not well. From the concussion. My face is scraped raw and is scanning over. But it will be weeks before I can remotely look normal. I can barely eat because my mouth hurts and the skin on my face and inside from passing out. I'm lucky I didn't break my nose or shatter my teeth. My boyfriend is rescheduling my GI doc and therapy appt this week. I need to recuperate from this concussion. Not to mention I look like a battered spouse. I'm in such a fog. Thanks for listening. I feel a bit depressed but maybe it's the concussion. It could be worse as I passed out earlier this year and had to get staples in my head. I hate having so many health problems. |

Did they hydrate you? Shouldn't you see gi Dr anyway? I'm glad you're okay but they really need to find out what's wrong. Hugs

Why on Earth are you passing out like this? Is it seizures? And are they looking into this?
I'm very sorry to hear that you are going through this... I hope they get to the bottom of it soon :-/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. I hope they can get the gi issues, at least, straightened out for you soon.

Thanks. Yes I got rehydrated and there was no stroke or seizure. But it's the second fall this year. Low blood pressure and meds and diet/GI problems are the culprit. I'll definitely get to the GI as soon as I can. Thanks everyone xo

I'm ashamed to go out looking like this, too. And I'm not coherent yet. But I'll get to the GI soon. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1441054727.540228.jpg
