Well, I have spent a significant portion of the past 24 hours at the hospital.  Hubby felt so very bad, and after trying to get this taken care of through a doctor within our insurance plan and failing, we ended up going to the emergency room.  Hubby was really hurting, and was nauseous, light sensitive, having chills, the whole bit.  It was all related to spinal fluid leaking from his procedure/test on Monday (CT Milogram).

After tests to confirm that it was, indeed, related to spinal fluid leaking, he was admitted to the hospital (5:30 a.m., when we had arrived at the ER at about 9:30 p.m.).  I went home for a bit to rest, then went back.  The doctor would have to fit this into his pre-existing schedule.  We finally saw the doctor at about 1:30 p.m., and he was going to do the procedure in DHs room, but after giving it further thought decided to do it in the operating room, where the correct tools and equipment were all available.  So, at about 5:15 P.M. hubby was taken to the OR to have the procedure done (it was called a "blood patch", where blood is taken from his arm and injected into his spinal column to coagulate in the hole that is leaking).  All told, it didn't take very long, and hubby was back in his room by about 6:10, feeling better.

After he was feeling better I went home again for a bit, thinking he'd come home tonight, but he still had a wee headache, and he and the doctor decided he'd stay at the hospital one more night. So now it is midnight, and I'm going to try to get a good night's sleep.

Blessings, y'all!
