OT: Had an Emergency D&C

Feb 18, 2009 9 Replies

I cannot believe with all that has been happening that last night I went to my Gyno and told me I needed an emergency D&C!! " Like right now"!! So I came home (luckily my DMIL and DFIL were here already and could watch my kids); I picked up my DH and off we went. I was in the ER for 2 hrs. when my cell phone rang. It was my GYNO looking for me! She said" Where are U?" I told her I had been at the ER for just over 2 hrs and she told me that herself and the OR have been waiting for me. BOY oh BOY did they rush me through. On top of that they tried 3 times to start an IV. Nurse couldn't find a vein!!! BS!!! Well I have been home since 11:45 last night. I am tired and crampy but otherwise good. Just wanted to let you all know! Blessings, Dorothy in NY

O my gosh! wow what a shock that must have been for you! Its a good thing your family was there to help. I hope things get better and you recover well. Been there done that with IV's and my own non existent tiny little veins...I feel for ya! Linda

What a day!! Glad it all went well in the end. Those kinds of things are never pleasant to deal with. Best of luck, Sandy

Dorothy, I am sorry to hear you had to go through all that. Such a hectic day! I have problems getting in IV all the time. Where I take certain medications, my veins are non-existant. Hope the recovery goes fast and well!
