On Nov. 11th I was admitted to the ER with the most excruciating pain of my life. After being given morphine and a very thorough ultrasound, I was told my gallbladder was inflamed and full of stones. I was given IV antibiotics and more painkillers, followed by a surgical consultation to remove the offending organ. Thankfully I was able to have the procedure done the same day and was discharged later that night, but I had to take two weeks off of work and the bills are starting to pile up.
