Poll of the Day > today is my birthday and I'm spending it in the hospital

(+) Yeah! (+)

Have they tried jiggling the handle
---

Can't they cut your balls open and suck the sepsis out like cowboys do for rattlesnake bites?
---

apparently not because it'll just refill back up.

i asked why not just a drainage tube then and I forget the response but I remember thinking it was ridiculous
---

They gotta do something they cant just let you stay in a hospital bed with an infection

A wound vac maybe?
---

their method just seems to be throw antibiotics at it and see what happens
---

this is depressing. it's supposed to get better
can't have any fun around with this :(.

i was in the hospital last month for maybe a few hours because i had a once in a lifetime seizure. possibly caused by overheating ended up with lower back pain as a result.
---

they just tried giving me a central iv line and failed

my veins are fun
---

I need all the helly accounts to give father helly their strength

Eek, must be a pretty bad doctor. Certain it is a central and not a peripheral?

Sorry that you apparently have some serious business medical stuff going on. Bed baths are definitely still a thing, you should ask for one.
---

Can you ask to go to a different hospital
---

I've thought about it.

recent development: I'm fucking itchy.
---

Itching is good it means your body is fighting it
---

I'm itching everywhere but where the issues are
---

I just read the thread.

Are you immunocompromised in some way? This isn't normal, I usually hear about this type of stuff happening to very old people, or cancer and HIV patients.
---

i think it's very obvious that this isn't normal

---

---

going to guess where it itches.... the scrotum.

but you can't scratch it because it's swollen up :(.

obviously those quacks aren't doing anything right.

totally

how dare them not know what I'm allergic to even though they only know what I've told them, which is, "nothing that I know of"
---

Sorry to hear about that. I hope you feel better.

Happy Belated Birthday!
---

Glad your pain level us down, if only marginally. Keep us updated.

But your balls, helly. We're all very concerned with your balls. How are those?
---

today is my birthday and I'm spending it in the hospital

Is it because you are a newborn baby?

still the same

was told that even if the infection goes away, the swelling probably will take several weeks.

they don't use sponges, they use these warm baby wipe things

and they call in a specialty team to do it that can only be referred to as "the burly girls"

so

Helly, tell your body to stop being wrong and get better!

I'm female and this is making me flinch.
At least you're not septic anymore, that shit can kill you if it gets outta hand.
