Whenever I'm feeling excited or stressed, I tend to react with my stomach. I've done that all my life and I don't even notice every time when my stomach starts to ache. I'm so used to it that I'm not even concerned. For me it is normal, that my stomach aches and swells whenever it wants to. Like it is living its own life.
But last week was different. I couldn't ignore my stomach any more. Every time when I ate something, it got so ill that I almost wanted to throw up to make it stop. [For the record, I hate throwing up. I don't do that unless I'm having a hangover from hell and that's the only thing that will help.] I don't think anything is wrong, I just had a stressing week and that's all. The stupid thing is, that the same thing continues this week and I'm afraid to eat, because every food seems to irritate my stomach and I get these stomach acids in my throat. Not very nice, I know.
I'm trying to calm myself and think good thoughts. Put things in perspective and then realize there is nothing to stress about. I'm leaving to Vienna on Friday and I want to be able to enjoy the trip. It won't be possible if my stomach isn't co-operating. Could I get a new stomach, please.
