Back at the hospital
Jun. 11th, 2013 01:19 pmAt 3-ish yesterday, Mom grew very faint and dizzy during her phys therapy.
She was coherent but she didn't want to talk or move, most likely because those motions made her dizziness worse. So the staff at the rehab center called 911 and had Mom taken back to the hospital ER.
After over four hours waiting, the hospital got Mom a bed in telemetry. No one's gotten word on the CAT-SCAN results. But the Dr.'s said that it was not another stroke or bloodclot.
Two theories:
1. Mom's nerves coupled with her meds might have triggered this. (Nerves)
2. She may have a UTI (the doctors kept the same catheter tube in her for 2 weeks before they removed it).
Just when she seemed to be improving, she just got worse. I even rescheduled a training since I was in the hospital with her till midnight. I didn't get out of bed till 9:45.
