I was admitted to the hospital!
As most of you know, I have been SO sick throughout my entire pregnancy and I'm 23 weeks. For 23 weeks, I have vomited non-stop and felt like complete cr@p- passing out, low blood pressure etc...
Well, Monday night (halloween) I was throwing up so much and was noticing that it looked funny (sorry TMI). It was that way for the past few days. My DH and I thought it could be blood, so we called my Dr's and they all said to get to the hospital right away.
Well, what I thought would be just a few hours there turned into overnight, possibly more. I had so many tests and they hooked me up to an IV and pumped tons of fluids into me. I felt better by the end of the night. The next day I was even better and I convinced them to realease me! I could relax at home!
They had me see a gastro internist while I was there since they concluded that I was throwing up my stomach and esophogus lining (yuck) b/c I had been throwing up non stop for the past 23 weeks. My stomach was shot. They prescribed heavy duty antacids, digestive aides and so many other pills  I have to take 5 pills a day! It has made me feel better than new now! 
I was at Stony Brook U. Hospital and even though I was beeing poked and prodded tons of times, EVERYONE was so nice and I had a great expierence with them! Even the food was great- I know, hopsital food isn't supposed to be! I'm so glad I'm delivering there. They had admitted me into labor and delivery and then I stayed in the antipardon floor (without birth?) which was all women like me having problems before labor.
I'm so glad to be back home!

Re: I was admitted to the hospital!
Hope the pills work for you. I delivered a Stony Brook too and thought the food was pretty good for hospital food.

Re: I was admitted to the hospital!
Hi Lora -- glad you're feeling better. I had the same symptoms as you and ended up on a Zofran IV a coule of times. DH called our L&D stays our "trial runs". It was really nice at delivery time to be familiar w/ the hospital and staff. A couple of nurses remembered us and were extra nice.
Good Luck!

Re: I was admitted to the hospital!
Lora, I'm so sorry to hear that you've been so sick for so long - that's horrible! But I'm glad that what ever they gave you is helping and you feel better! I can't imagine going through 23 weeks of that - you poor thing!!
PS Thank you for the package in the mail...but do you need them back? I have some left and I'm not sick anymore.

I"m so happy you're feeling better! Did they help? I don't need them. I'm feeling great myself now and they really didn't help me too much. Thanks!

SB does have great food now b/c they recently went through a multi-million renovation that ended up as the cover of some food magazine. Not something you'd think would matter, but it does if you're stuck in there for a long time...a gal's gotta eat!
