Eventful Evening

Roger is finding an interesting way to start his retirement. The man never, ever, ever gets sick enough to throw up. Well, in the middle of the night he got very sick. His head was hurting so badly we both got worried. He called up the guys at the nearest station and asked them to come out and take his blood pressure because he worried with such a bad headache his blood pressure could be high. It was
(190/100) but still not sure whether it was high from being so sick or from something else.

Off we go to the emergency room which at least brought him some relief. They hooked him up to IV fluids with pain meds for the head and meds for the nausea. Did a CT scan of the head and no vessel trouble or anything SO that is good. EKG looked great which is also good.

We are still trying to figure out if it is indeed a stomach bug causing a severe headache or a severe headache causing nausea/vomiting and a rise in blood pressure. Poor baby. He is asleep now and has only had a few sips of water since last night which is another great indicator of how bad he must be feeling. He was eating a bologna sandwich (very carefully I might add) right after wisdom teeth were removed. He does not like missing too many meals.

I don't like seeing him so sick. It makes me feel so helpless to do anything for him. He is always such a great care taker of others.
