hi ladies, so I need some advice/comforting words. I went to the urgent care Sunday afternoon and I tested positive for the flu. so I went home Sunday evening I got so much worse, I started vomiting. I went to bed woke up Monday still vomiting. so my husband left work at 12 and made me go to ER. They gave me an IV of fluids and said my potassium is extremely low and gave me 4 potassium pills and a bag of potassium through IV. doctor comes in listens to my belly asks me if I've ever had a miscarriage, I told him no. he freaked me out. so they sent me home with an antibiotic told me to continue tamiflu. I've had a sore throat and awful cough and stuffy nose. I go to my OB tomorrow. should I be worried about a miscarriage? I'm not feeling any better but I'm not worse it's hitting me very hard
is it possible I would still be aching all over my body with the flu after I tested positive on Sunday for it? my body is still aching. @gypsy.soul2 @jlspoores @miasmommy165
thank you! I sure hope he will be okay. I'm trying so hard to make sure I do what's best for him so far it's back fired on me. @miasmommy165
don't stress about it girl I went to the hospital for a gallbladder attack and they asked me if I ever miss carried and scared me too when I asked him why he would ask me that he said because they need to knkw that information because if you have they try to refrain from any medicines needed to be given so he was probably checking before he gave you potassium and as long as ur staying hydrated your baby will be ok
my OB won't give me zofran because of the side effects it can cause baby. the phenegran is only 12.5 milligrams and it helps tremendously but it just wasn't doing it Sunday and Monday I was too sick. @jlspoores
@jlspoores, thank you so much! we need all the prayers we can get. I'm taking phenegran but this wasn't pregnancy vomiting. they say it was either flu vomiting or I had a virus. I've never gotten sick like that in my life. bless my husbands heart I threw up all over the bed. poor guy. :(
I'll be praying for you two I know I was very scared when I got that sick my son is my world and I would be a mess if I lost him and so would his daddy so I am prying and wishing you get better if you keep throwing up I would talk to the Dr about medicine for nausea my Dr put me on some and it works wonders for me @mrshayslip14
@gypsy.soul2, thank you, I will. I'm so nervous to go to the doctor tomorrow.
I sure hope everything is okay and my little jelly bean is okay and healthy. I know I've lost so much weight I've been so sick and unable to eat I've been pushing fluids though @gypsy.soul2
@gypsy.soul2, I don't trust the medical doctors around here they don't care about their patients. I'm going 45 mins away to an OB. I just don't trust them. they are quacks. I didn't want to go to ER and had I not been pregnant I wouldn't have.
I'm farther along than u but I had the same thing happen to me and my baby is as healthy as can be
I figured. my stupid family keeps arguing I wouldn't still be aching. I already knew I was just getting others opinions. thank you! @jlspoores
