Betsy goes to ER in pain

So it was a normal night where Mark and I were doing our typical activities… Ate dinner together, Marc had a church meeting so I did some sewing and yard work. Around 1030 we did come follow me together and then Marc went to bed. I still had some sewing to do so I stayed up until midnight. When I went to bed I had a small uncomfortable feeling on my right side just under my rib cage.  I had a difficult time sleeping all night because of the pain or discomfort. The next day I went around the day running errands, shopping,  sewing and doing yard work.  The uncomfortable feeling stayed with me throughout the day and into the evening but as each hour went by it got a little worse. At bedtime I was concerned about the pain but thought I could sleep it off. I knew Marc would not want me to go to the doctor at this time of night because of the extra cost. I was not able to sleep at all, not one minute!  The discomfort became pain and the pain became constant. It also moved to the back of my lungs and to my abdomen. Around 5 o’clock in the morning I just couldn’t take it anymore. I wasn’t comfortable sitting or standing or walking or moving. It was just uncomfortable and painful no matter what I did. Marc drove me to the emergency room where I was admitted and given pain medicine. The pain medicine worked within 10 minutes and I was relieved.  They also did a series of test on my liver gallbladder and pancreas.  They all came back normal. They did an ultrasound on my gallbladder and found a tiny stone inside but said that the stone could not because in this much pain. It’s a mystery. After three hours at the ER I was discharged. I slept or rested most of the day because of the pain medicine. After the pain medicine wore off I did not have any more pain. The doctor thinks it was a gallbladder spasm or attack. I’m just glad I’m not in any more pain!!!
