Why no immediate Ativan for the seizures?
No that came later. An hour before discharge. I don't know what the anti seizure medication was except it was an injection in my left shoulder, after I'd had seizures for three and a half hours. My urologist says that the damage they did will have trouble healing unless I stop taking Warfarin. I'm off this until at least Friday. This of course increases the risk of stroke or heart failure due to atrial fibrillation. I'm frightened now to go to the ER on anything but a stroke or heart attack.
