Pain Management

Pain Management

Another trip to hospital for us last night.  Mum had some more abdominal pain which started Thursday accompanied with a slight bit of spotting, but not as much as there was the episode we had 2 week earlier.  The spotting stopped on Thursday but the pain continued through Friday progressively getting worse.  The closest Mum can explain the pain is similar to severe cramping which fluctuates in intensity.

Mum went to see the GP to get them to check her out.  The GP was not overly concerned, however, she did send us to the hospital for them to do a thorough check to ensure that there was nothing nasty happening.

The staff at Logan Hospital were once again awesome.  They did all the same test as they did with our previous visit.  Everything looked ok from their perspective, and it was decided that it would be a matter of Pain Management for Mum until our scan at The Mater on Wednesday, at which time they will do a more thorough examination to see if they can pinpoint the cause of the pain.

This morning Mum is still hurting but the pain does seem to have settled and Mum is a lot more comfortable.  Hopefully on Wednesday they can identify why Mum has the pain and what can be done to relieve this pain.
