Smile Icu

Well guys, interestingly enough, I'm in my local hospital ICU with bilateral blood clots in both lungs. Crazy. Now they are thinking the pneumonia may be pleural effusion due to the clots. I have been these horrible shots in my stomach every 12 hours. I don't know how long it will take for the clots to disappear, but I hope it's soon, but then I will be on a drug called Coumadin for 6-9 months. We don't have a definitive answer why it happened, but consensus say feeling like poo lying in bed apparently caused a few DVTs thar broke and landed in my lungs. I believe divine intervention was at work because we were not planning to go to th hospital. Well, my husband felt something was wrong, and we went. If we waited a week or two, it might have been no more TK. Wow!! Crazy how things work out sometimes. Anyway, I should be out of icu today or tomorrow, and out of hospital, well hopefully Friday. At least no rsd pain the DVTs ultrasound was quite painful, but I made it. Oh, and due to mixed company, I dare not tell y'all my catheter story but it is a doozy.wow!!! Wow ridiculousness. But I'm here by the grace of god.
