Layla's Journal

Total time in hospital: 9 days Surgery: went smoothly ICU: I was over medicated and they did not listen to my requests about narcotics Stepup: I had a bad reaction to metropolol in which I developed delirium/hallucinations. It definitely did not help That I developed anemia, I was dehydrated, did not eat much, and had lack of sleep... What was really bad was that none of the doctors thought that this was an issue. It took me coming home and taking myself off the 150mg of metropolol (crazy!) for things to begin to normalize. I am now on day 18. Every day I get a little bit closer to feeling myself. I take tylonol for pain, a baby aspirin, and try to take small walks and get fresh air.
