Oh no

My wife woke me up a 2:00 a.m. Tuesday morning telling me she has been experiencing a gall stone attack since 10:00 p.m. Monday night.

Her doctors told us to rush to the Labor and Delivery Room at our hospital for montioring and treatment. We got there by 4:00 a.m. and they went through the same battery of tests we've had before, the biggest difference this time was the pain did not subside after 3 hours or so. As of 7:00 a.m. when we got her into a hospital bed and she received medication she had been in pain for 9 hours.

She received Demerol for the pain, which helped with deadening the pain but not resolving the problem.

We are waiting to see what will happen since the doctors are reluctant to perform surgery. She's 31 weeks into the pregnancy. Surgery in the third trimester may trigger premature labor.

We are now in a wait and see mode.
