At 10:00am I finally received word that my LP was scheduled for 11:30am.\u00a0 <\/span>At 10:30am I had another episode. The Porter came to get me at 11:15 and I was transported downstairs.\u00a0 <\/span>There was a bit of a wait but I was brought in at 11:55.\u00a0 <\/span>The “5 minute procedure” ended up taking almost an hour. Even under the imagery it took 2 tries.\u00a0 <\/span>I had an episode during the procedure.\u00a0 <\/span>The first try they hit a nerve which shot my left leg out and was quite painful.\u00a0 <\/span>The second attempt was a success and it took less than 10 minutes to extract the fluid. I was back up in my bed by 1:00pm with instructions to stay laying down for 1 hour.<\/span><\/p>\n

At 2:00pm I got the OK to leave the hospital on a day pass and attend the kids’ student led conferences.\u00a0 <\/span>My husband came to pick me up at 3:00 and we surprised the kids \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 <\/span>I had 3 episodes during the 2 hours I was at the school. One time I went down in the middle of the hallway on our way to the computer lab.\u00a0 <\/span>I think I pushed myself too hard but it was great to see the kids and all the work they have done this year. Then we went home for a quick dinner.<\/span><\/p>\n

At 6:00pm we went back to the hospital.\u00a0 <\/span>My bed had been moved out into the hall.\u00a0 <\/span>I was now placed directly across from the nurse’s station. <\/span><\/p>\n

That night I played Candy Crush while laying on my stomach in my bed. Then I moved to my back to sleep. I must have pinched something because I immediately got a sharp pain in my chest.\u00a0 <\/span>It felt as though someone was squeezing my lungs and would not let go.\u00a0 <\/span>It hurt as bad as a contraction that would not end.\u00a0 <\/span>I was able to get my nurse’s attention and she took my vitals.\u00a0 <\/span>Everything appeared alright so she held my hand until the pain started to go away. It lasted about 5 minutes. After that I went into another episode of paralysis before finally getting some rest.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
