Quoting Elizabeth Musselman:" I was miserable! I had a migraine that they tried to give me meds for but they didn't work, I kept throwing ... [snip!] ... or see straight. I ended up sleeping most of the time, just to get away from feeling as bad as I did. Mag is a terrible drug :/"

i had it 24 hours afterwards and before the surgery and it made me feel like i had a fever but i never did they always said oh its normal so of course i believed it

I was on it for four days! My mom told my doctor they were torturing me! I actually begged them to take me off of it, but they wouldn't, even though as a patient you have a right to refuse any treatments. I had hot flashes so bad that my poor fiance was freezing, i had the heat turned all the way down to 60, and a box fan blowing on me, I was still sweating like crazy! The doctors told me that loss of reflexes is the first sign of mag poisoning, so I had to get them checked every two hours, they couldn't find my reflexes for almost 6 hours...and still wouldn't take me off it!

wow that must have been super scary why did they have you on it for so long

they tried to induce me for three days and it didn't work, my 24 hour urine test had over 3 thousand grams of protein ihn it, and my blood pressure was in the danger zone. for me, giving birth was a special kind of hell.

wow 3000 Im surprised you didnt end up with failing organs an they didnt go for a c-section at that rate

My kidneys were being damaged, but not enough to make them go for a section then. If my mom hadn't flipped out on the doctors I probably would still be there with them trying to induce hahaha
