Last week was pretty traumatic... well Tuesday was traumatic. I thought my number was called and Jesus himself was coming to take me away. I can not describe the pain I felt except to say that if I were to have a child, I'm thinking this is how much pain I would be in without any drugs.
We thought it was my gallbladder acting up, but the doctors said it wasn't. They have NO IDEA what it is/was. It's possible I had a pancreas spasm? Donno. All I did was eat my normal breakfast - 1 piece of peanut-butter toast with a cup of skim milk. Normal food yes? Nothing crazy or out of the norm. Not even 2 minutes after I finished my meal the pain hit my stomach (right about my rib cage area) like a ton of bricks and spread to my entire back. No dull pain warning at all... just full on buckled over, cold sweat, nauseous, wanting to cry feeling that lasted from 6:45am until 9:30. HOLY CRAP!!!!
No pain since thankfully, but it really bothers me that no one can tell me what happened unless I can have an ultrasound while I'm in the pain. I can't go through that again!! I'm too afraid to have peanut butter toast for breakfast, so I've been eating Life cereal ever since. Not too fun I tell ya. I was doing so good too... I have never called in sick at my job... 2 years and 4 months and not once have I missed a day that wasn't a scheduled vacation day. Damn. Can't wear the perfect employee ribbon anymore :(
The new account is going FABULOUS!!!!!!!! I am kicking so serious butt and it feels so good. My numbers haven't been this good since before Christmas. Bring it on!!!!
Not much change in the weight situation.. a pound here... a pound there. Overall I've lost about 6 pounds in 3 weeks. UGH. I can tell in my clothes though so that's helping my motivation.
Punky and I did yard work this past weekend and got some cool edging for around the bushes. We'll put that up this weekend and I'll take some pictures. I hope it looks as good as we think it will. The ideas floating around in my head for our landscaping are running-a-muck. Can't wait to get it all set in motion.
:) Have I ever mentioned that I HATE THE IRS??? Yep... it's official. They are the devil. They want to crush me like a little bug and take away my favorite purse. Bitches.

Bitches. HA! I love that! I'm so glad you are not having any more pain, but it bothers me too that they don't know why. How annoying. bitches. All of 'em.
Where all of your lab values normal?
Actually, they never told me the results of my blood work. I did have a UTI surprisingly. That's all I know. :(
I recommend patients get a copy of their labs & ask questions when something doesn't look right. Have your physician or PA educate you on what those labs say.
It is possible that the UTI could have caused your symptoms, although sounds like your pain was higher.

evil devil bitches!! all of them..ha
I agree w/ Alli...get a copy of your labs...if not nothing else you'll have it if it happens again. K?
You're doing soooo good w/ the eating plan babe. Go ahead and try the pb and milk again. :)
