Birthday in the Emergency Room

What a week this has been.  We had reservations at an oceanfront hotel for my birthday.  But I'd been feeling ill for several days so finally we realized we'd have to cancel.  :-(  On Sunday we called the hospital nurse's help line and after describing everything he said we should really go to the Emergency Room.  Which is how I spent my birthday.  Checking in, being assessed, getting a CT scan, donning a lovely backless gown, getting an IV inserted, installed in a room, on and on.  The final result after being there from Sunday to Wednesday at noon is I have two ulcers in my stomach.  I had no idea they were such painful!  I've dealt with a lot of nausea and other things you don't want to know about.  But today Dayle brought me home and I hope to be on the mend.  Apparently my use of Nsaids such as Alleve is what did it.  So, be careful and try not to use them.  This was the view of Mt. Hood on our drive home.  I'm so happy to be in my own home!  One of the effects of all this is I've lost my appetite.   Dayle made me a grilled cheese sandwich and I could only eat 1/4 of it.  Now I have rumblings down there.  I will have to Google foods to eat if you have ulcers.  Thank you to those of you who have expressed concern to me for being missing.  ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
