Quick Update & Thank You for the Prayers
I spent most of the afternoon at my Momma's bedside. She was weak, but the only pain she seemed to be experiencing was from the wounds on her legs and not the internal bleeding. A test of her upper GI, showed 8 ulcers in her stomach and duodenum. The doctor sounded very optimistic as he explained the ulcers were not actively bleeding, so surgery would not be necessary. The cause of the ulcers appears to be the NSAID she was taking (in addition to her prescription pain killer) for the pain caused by her wounds. It's still unclear at this point how long she will remain in the hospital.

May they find some meds she can take for her wounds that don't cause other things like ulcers. Hope she soon gets to come home feeling much better.
ReplyDeleteSo glad an explanation was found for the bleeding! Now the doctors can help her.
