Boyfriend In Hospital

t's been a long week what can i say...so to get off the heroin like i mentioned before he was hospitalized for pancriutus....don't know how to spell it...but pretty much he drank way too much and now he pancreas is not working...so i spent all day in the hospital..i am so tired and so upset and so hurt right now..just dont know what to do anymore...i am going to bed at this early hour so i can get up tomorrow and put on my happy face...

has this happenned to anyone here? thanks
Becky I posted to you on Families/Partners.....what are they doing for him in there.....as far as the heroin use.....did he tell.....you have to tell.....because we have a tolerance.....so even with say Dilaudid or Demerol......you can hit us up with an elephant dose, and we're still having pain, and all.

Hope tomorrow goes better sweetie.....I have "heard" of this happening to people on the street, but not personally, and not from heroin.

Hang on there, Becky.
hey yep he didnt have to tell they could tell by looking at his veins...they gave him that drug i cant spell it that you mentioned and he was OUT i mean OUT like a dead horse for hours and hours.....really sucks considering all he had to do was make it thru the weekend to get the pellet...now that is all shot to hell...he is staying overnight..possibly 2 nights...he hasnt eaten in days from the heroin withdrawl or whatever...so they are pumping him with nutrients and vitamins plus the pain meds..pretty much said if he doesnt stop the drinking he is gonna become a diabetic and will have to use insulin since his pancreus will shut down...so it was just a hard day...

all the docs and nurses you could just see the judgement on their faces...then asking me if i was a drug addict...i literally ahd to pull my sleeves up because they did not believe me...it was awful...
Hi there, so sorry to hear that your boyfriend is sick. I t is so wrong how other people judge. I spent a lot of time in hospital last year, and had an operation in December (on my 27th b'day!). Some of the doctors made me feel like crap about myself, and had I not been so ill I probably would have gone. It was embarrassing, especially when I had to have a line in my neck because that was the only vein they could find, and with dificulty. As for pain relief they were pretty good, although at first I had to use in the hospital.
I don't know much about pancreatitus(?), but my dad had cirossis of the liver through drink, but sadly it was to late by the time he did anything about it.
I wish you and your partner all the luck in the world. Good luck and God bless.
Thankssssss....yea he is still there and in a lot of pain...but they won't up the meds so he is gonna suffer i suppose...they had a pretty hard time getting a vein as well with him but that nurse was nice about it atleast...i am going to see him then going to my moms for dinner then his moms for dinner...i'm going about my business..i feel abd for him but there really isnt anything i can do..
once when i was shooting way tooo much coke my pancreus shut down and was hospitalized but after 4 or 5 days i was ok it started working again.
yea they said he should be fine but if he keeps it up...not so fine...he is hurting pretty bad...no pain meds etc....so he never saw a doc all day so hes stuck tehre for now i guess...
Pancreatitis is from the drinking I kno, a relative of mine has it & all he does is drink-no dope. Very sad & indignant for you Becks, as far as the Docs attitude re;the IV drug use. Do you see now why I have such a deep mistrust/loathing of them? If u find one who can see beyond it, they are a rare cat indded & a doc to be cherished. Alcohol is a wicked drug;I think it killed my Dad, to be honest. Maybe this is what yr. guy needs-to hit the wall, maybe it will get him to seriously concider how he has been living & make the change. Good Luck kid-keep posting
Hey thanks...he's home...feeling crappy...gave him some pretty nice pain meds but not many thank goodness...percocets...had a friend od on them before so touchy subject for me...atleast one good thing came from the hospital visit...he is enrolled in an outpatient program...3 nights a week 3 hrs a night...so its a pain in the butt...but he needs it...thanks for all the good wishes!!
Hi Becky,
Out patient, a new start....
It is like this mystery with them, when the time will be that something clicks and they just get it. I hope he learned something.
You take care of you and try not to piss off them dealers to much. Usually I would freak out when someone does what you did, but I LMAO when I read you post the other night. Be careful ok......
Love,
Tina
haha yea it was pretty stupid of me huh...had to let someone have it tho i was so pissed watching him hurt like that...i knew it wasnt because of the heroin tho...i just get so sick of the phone ringing and i know who it is...i dont want to see that number anymore thats all...

hes doing well i guess keeping food down got up at the crack of dawn tog et some work done on the computer...he owns some internet business...so thats a good sign i guess...usually he would be boozing it up by now..
