I had uncontrolled bleeding Saturday night from my nose surgery stitches (come ON it has been a freakin' MONTH already!) after a half hour of being unable to stop the bleeding my wife takes me to the E.R. where I promptly faint and vomit a pint of blood that collected in my belly, then they had to infuse me to raise my blood pressure and hemoglobin.
I dropped to 72/56 and a hemoglobin of 10.3.

What a miserable way to spend the weekend.

Now I am cauterized and tomorrow I am going to give the surgeon that started the whole thing almighty HELL for not answering his phone or his answering service when I went into this sad condition.

Auto-exsanguination couldn't work. What a bunch of crap. Sucks being me sometimes.
Aw Humane, I am so sorry.

*Hugs*

I hope you feel better.
