What a week!

It started off on new years eve. I felt a sharp pain and then severe burning in my stomach. something was wrong. i was in sever pain and i screamed at my husband to call 911. i lay in emergency all night being fed pain killers until the ultra sound tech guys showed up in the AM. the following morning i got ultrasounded and scanned and it showed that i had an ulcer that ruptured. my surgeon tells me "either i operate or you die" yes she actually said that. anyway my surgery lasted 1.5 hours and i came out with a nasal-gastric tube, meaning the stuff getting pumped out of tummy was coming out of nose, IV drip and catheter. a great way to start 2007 no? i was on meds for most of the week which made me crazy and cry uncontrollable, (not fun). and finally i am back home with hubby. i had my staples removed today, but my abs are well, not exactly functioning. so that means NO TRAINING for 2 months! i am so bummed. i know things could be terribly terrible worse (like i could be dead!) so i am trying to keep perspective.

The reason i got it? well i use ibuprofen for my aches and pains, and even my limited amout many the tummy unhappy. never take things for granted...

thought i would rant and share...
