  Speaker 1: real life experience of our very own Gina Barberry. We
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: just want to know you're like emergency situations that you've
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: been in. Gina was had to go to the hospital yesterday,

  Speaker 1: Your story? Gina, You thought maybe you were having a
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: heart attack, right.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: I really did. I was worried because they tell you
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: a heart attack is pain in the middle of your
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: chest and you know, difficult breathing. I thought for sure
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: I was having a heart attack.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Sure, is your voice all scratchy? Because did they have
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: to intubate you?
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: They did?
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Really, there you go, Yes, so it was it was
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: it was major surgery. Yeah, I have four holes in
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: me that but I was four that we're just added
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: yet four new holes. Yeah.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Because what they do is they to you that's how
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: many openings there are in the human body, by the way.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: They one of them is to blow your belly up
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: with air.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've had them.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: They can see what they're doing. One of them is
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: for a camera, hm, so they can see what they're doing.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: And then somehow with the other two. They remove the
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: gall bladder, and because the gall bladder is attached to
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: things like your file ducts and your stomach, they have
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: to put a clamp in that stays in there to
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: steel it off.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: They don't just use super glue or something.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: No, it's there's I have a metal clamp inside me.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: I have to have like a MRI or something.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: I mean, no them, I got metal in my body.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: That means your new nickname is no. It's no longer boots.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: Your new nickname is clamps.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: It's not as cute nickname.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: So, Gina, I've just looked at it. Looked at up
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: a long term diet for gallbladder removal surgery. Long term
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: diet avoid avoid fried foods, fat eat fatty meats, bacon, sausage,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: avoid butter cheese is no problem. Avoid sugary foods like
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: fast food and baked goods. Avoid sugary cereals. Caffeine and alcohol.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: You're probably okay there. And spicy foods. You're probably okay
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: there because you don't need spicy foods anyway. But so
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: no more so, how are you going to get through
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: half a cow? That's what I want to know.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Well, and I found out it's interesting that the gallbladder
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: is like is kind of like your appendix that you
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: can live without it. It's not really necessary, but it
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: gives you a little extra oomph of bile to deal
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: with those fatty foods. I no longer have the extra
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: oomph of but yeah, I really And so for I know,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: we have friends with the program listening probably who have
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: had at attack.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: We got somebody online one who's had a gallbladder removal.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: Oh okay, Amy, Hello Amy, Hi Amy, Hey guys.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Hi, So you also had your gallbladder removed.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: I did.
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: I had to have it removed in two thousand and three.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Uh huh.
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: And I had just had my baby, and that's a
• 3:22
  Speaker 7: lot of times for women.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: That's when it happened.
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: And so I had just recovered from a C section,
• 3:28
  Speaker 7: and I kept getting like at midnight on like every night,
• 3:32
  Speaker 7: I was getting this really bad pain and I thought
• 3:34
  Speaker 7: I was having like I was.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I felt like I was dying.
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: And so my my husband took me into the er.
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: And as I was being taken back to the R room,
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: I was not really censoring myself and I yelled.
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: I'm sing.
• 3:57
  Speaker 7: And so they were the piece that we're there, We're like, nah,
• 4:02
  Speaker 7: we'll get y'all picked up and you can go home.
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: And then as I was leaving, like three hours later,
• 4:08
  Speaker 7: they were like, you didn't die.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that nut?
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: And yeah? And then I had to have my gallbladder
• 4:16
  Speaker 7: removed like a week later.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Okay, now now wait now I want to ask you
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: when I ask you a question, because we need to
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: get on to other stuff. What has so it was
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: two thousand and three, have you altered your diet considerably
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: since that time?
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: I did it first because it was I mean it
• 4:34
  Speaker 7: basically it gives you the trots. If you're not.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Please don't call it. Don't call it the trots. Use
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the technical term, it's the hershey sports.
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: Uh, it'll give you the diarrheas.
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: And sometimes it just is not great. But I mean
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: I don't have any issues now.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Oh so we kind of get over it. Huh. All right,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: there's good luck here, Thank.
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: You.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Amy.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: So for a while you're gonna maybe maybe you can
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: get back to eating French fries.
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: Doctor Neil in the chat room says, Gina, be careful
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: with a fatty meal. I had Little Caesar's pizza about
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: a week after.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Mine got yanked out and it damn near killed me.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Well, I won't do that for sure, Gina.
• 5:19
  Speaker 9: There's there's perhaps an Italian conspiracy theory that I'm going
• 5:23
  Speaker 9: to float you ready for this?
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: So you've been in Italy? You were there like what
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: like a week ago or.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: So my cousin.
• 5:31
  Speaker 9: My cousin was on his mission in Italy and they
• 5:35
  Speaker 9: had to remove his gallbladder. Really, yes, maybe it's the
• 5:39
  Speaker 9: air in Italy that something is up.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, all right, all right, we're gonna go
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: listen to stories of people's emergency room visits. Now. It's
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: hard to do these things without you rambling on, so
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I may cut you off and make you get to
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the point occasionally.
• 5:54

• 7:36
  Speaker 1: WHOA, We'll be.

• 7:52
  Speaker 7: Hello, Sarah, Hey, Sarah alhead guys, Sarah, my story is.
• 8:00
  Speaker 12: My story is right. As COVID was hitting, my son
• 8:04
  Speaker 12: was having a hard time breeding, and so we rushed
• 8:07
  Speaker 12: them to Primary Children's Hospital. His oxygen level was really
• 8:10
  Speaker 12: really low, but they were also like really weird about
• 8:13
  Speaker 12: the mask and we didn't quite understand what was going
• 8:16
  Speaker 12: on with the whole COVID thing yet. At the point,
• 8:19
  Speaker 12: long story short, he had pneumonia. He had spend twenty
• 8:22
  Speaker 12: four hours in the hospital, so he's fine. But I
• 8:25
  Speaker 12: wanted to just shamelessly plug Primary Children's Hospital. They are
• 8:29
  Speaker 12: amazing and if you can and donate to them at
• 8:33
  Speaker 12: any I mean anything you can give to them.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're great. Thank you, Thanks you. Sarah. All right, Morgan,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I like this. Morgan has an unidentified rash.
• 8:43
  Speaker 13: Oh. Yes, it was twenty eighteen. I woke up in
• 8:48
  Speaker 13: the morning with blood blisters inside my mouth and thought
• 8:51
  Speaker 13: I had just been my cheeks in my sleep, no worries.
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: Went to work, and all.
• 8:56
  Speaker 13: Of a sudden I got a big rash on my hands.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Just it was your bubonic take.
• 9:01
  Speaker 13: Care, No, not quite, uh huh. Went to the urgent care.
• 9:06
  Speaker 13: They ran some tests and then said go to the
• 9:09
  Speaker 13: emergency room. Don't stop at Windy's, but don't run any
• 9:12
  Speaker 13: red lights. When I got to the emergency room, they
• 9:16
  Speaker 13: told me that I had one platelet left, I could
• 9:20
  Speaker 13: not clot any blood.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, huh. What do they do for that?
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Although it was a.
• 9:26
  Speaker 13: Little bit confusing because one plate lit in medical term,
• 9:29
  Speaker 13: is really one thousand. Oh your normal platelet count is
• 9:33
  Speaker 13: as eighteen I'm sorry, one hundred and eighty thousand.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: So what do they do for that? Give you transfusion?
• 9:40
