17 hrs in the hospital - the short version

Got sick on Thursday evening, couldn't get warm, digestive issues, fever of 100.5 which is the point at which someone getting chemo has to call the doctor and I was told to go to the ER. 12 hours there, morphine for the unrelenting joint pain, lots of tests. ER doc overreacted to one test result, I was admitted and then discharged 5.5 hrs. later when someone decided to consult an oncologist.

I promise to write the interesting parts soon. I slept 15 hours Friday night straight through almost, because I was wide awake for the full 17 hours at Kaiser.

Good to be home, plus I got a MUCH stronger pain pill for the joint pain which actually, seriously, takes it away. Thank goodness. I feel fine now.
