Think of Niagra Falls, a fast moving river, a faucet running...

If you are not already aware, I ALWAYS end up saying too much, embarrassing myself (and sometimes you!) and talking about things that are normally NOT TALKED ABOUT.

so, consider yourself warned*************

Last night:

I was really really nauseous all day long, and finally had Adam give me an IV of phenegran and fluids. As soon as he got it all set up I started puking EVERYWHERE.

It was so weird! I was throwing up completely instinctual. There was no part of my mind that was controlling the movement of my body. (As far as I could tell.)

Suddenly, in what felt like about two hours of falling backwards through the kitchen floor while shaking violently, I looked up to see Adam and Tristan standing above me, but I could not figure out what had just happened, how I got to the floor.

I started crying, although nothing hurt, amazingly. It was just shocking. I caught my breath and asked Adam if I has just passed out. He said yes. I then started to grab the chair and pull myself up.

***warning... graphic content*** ;)

While trying to stand up I noticed the floor was all wet... same with my pants, my undies...

Oooooooooooooh crap!

I peed my pants?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

WTF
(by the way, that stands for What The Frodo... don't know what you were thinking ;)

As soon as Adam noticed the puddle, he got a scared look on his face. Now, when your firefighter/paramedic husband gets a worried look on his face in a situation like this YOU KNOW you should be worried.

Apparently, I had a small seizure. This is kinda like what happened a few weeks ago, but we thought it was the hormone pills. I have not been taking them at all. I barely even take an ibuprofen these days!

After the seizure I had a really hard time opening my left eye. There was no other movement impairment on the left side, and Adam checked my pupil and stuff to see if it was a stroke. We decided to drug me up and put me to bed.

I woke up this morning to the most EMPTY house! Adam was gone, just me and T. I think I have grown too attached to having Adam home everyday!!! I was a little nervous that I might seizure again, so i decided not to drive anywhere. By about 10:00 AM I was having a really hard time using my left eye again and then I puked and puked and fell on the floor in the bathroom downstairs. My phone was upstairs. i felt the shaking, the falling backwards sensation, the warmth of me peeing myself, then a few moments of nothing, then I saw the upside down view of Tristan screaming crying at the child gate at the bathroom door.

What in the world is going on? Have you ever heard of someone passing out when they vomit? I wonder if I just have so much anxiety about surgery and stuff and then I caught this little flu bug and now when I puke it just sets off a seizure type thing.

wow

I think i am gonna fake like i have tourrets now, just to seal the deal. ;)

Love,
Lynsie

p.s. please please tell me someone out there has peed themselves as an adult! That was some really embarassing honesty I just put out there!

p.p.s. my loving sister leslee is taking the entire day off work tommorow to be with me and drive me to crest and help me with tristan. I LOVE YOU MESSIE! xoxoxo

I have peed myself as an adult. And I wasn't even having a seizure. Although, my bladder was.

I hope you're OK!

I'm so sorry Lynsie, that is so scary! I really hope it is the anxiety and frustration of the surgery that is causing this. Good luck dear.

lynds, I'm a little worried about you girl! Are you OK? maybe you should go see a doctor if you are having seizures!! I'm sorry....wish I was there to help:( CALL ME!!!

Yeah that sounds pretty crazy. Have talked to your doc? I'm no expert or anything, but I don't think seizures are a common thing.
And now to make you feel better, Yes I have peed my pants as an adult. As a matter of fact, the other day I heard that jump roping is a good exercise for your legs. Long story short, I can't jump up and down like that since having a baby! Guess I better starting do kegels.
P.S. If you need some help call me. Seriously!
