SO HERE IS AN UPDATE ON MY LIFE…
I had been having pains in my right side for about two weeks and had been REALLY tired so I decided to go to the doctor to get everything check out. After 7 tubes of blood they said that the reason I was so tired was because of my hectic schedule, my poor eating habits (I don’t eat a lot), and I am depressed. They wanted to put me on an anti depressant but my asthma and allergist didn’t want me on it because of the amount of medicine I take for my asthma and allergies. And my family doctor wanted to give me another pill. So I researched depression and I found out that you can help your depression symptoms buy taking Fish Oil supplements and B12 supplements and by taking a daily multi-vitamin. So I have been doing that for about a week now and I think it is helping a little bit. Now as far as the stomach pains go…my family doctor first ordered me a hedia scan….they inject dye into you so that they can see your liver, gall balder and bile ducts….IT TOOK 2 HOURS! Blah!.....so I go back the next Monday to get my results from them….they didn’t find anything…my doctor said* are you still having pains?* I wanted to say *oh no! they just disappeared!* But I didn’t! (I mean what was she thinking!!??!) so she felt and listened to my stomach and said she felt and heard something. So she ordered a ultra sound of my gall balder, a cat scan of my gall balder and a chest x-ray. I went to get all those done yesterday…or so I thought.
I had to drink 900mL of *gunk* to *clean out my system* on Thursday morning…or so I thought….my doctor told me WRONG she said to drink them BOTH Thursday morning so I did. I got to the testing site and I couldn’t get the second bottle of the *gunk* down and they asked how many I had and they told her…the lady at the front desk told me she said they told me WRONG (I was supposed to drink one the night before and one that morning) so she said we will try the test anyways…I had the chest xray and I was fine and all….then I went to get the cat scan and they asked me what I was allergic to and I told them and they could not give me the dye because I am a high risk person ….the dye would have helped them see *everything* better. Then I get up and they said they couldn’t do the ultra sound so I would have to come back in the morning….
So I come back this morning to just get the ultra sound done…so I thought….the ultra sound hurt L but it was fine….she then made me go sit in a room….another lady came in and told me they didn’t get a clear enough picture of my stomach yesterday and that I would have to drink 900mL of the *gunk* AGAIN! I was mad and of course started crying! So I go to Little Creek Park to be alone and drink all my gunk that I didn’t think I could get down…but I did….It was early in the morning and I was by myself in the car praying, crying, screaming, yelling, drinking, and listening to KLove….I got through it all and went back to the testing site…I got the entire stomach scanned this time….Yesterday they saw inflammation in the appendix and thats why I had to do the second cat scan today…So it is more than likely my appendix AND my gall bladder. I will get the results back Monday and they will no 100% of what is wrong with me. Yeeeeeeek!
I was training to run in the race for the cure…I cant run now….I have to walk….all because of my STUPID appendix and gall bladder!
There is the update….sorry it is so long…..
Peace love prayers and happiness
