Got out of the spa hospital after a lovely 6 day visit for abdominal pain and vomiting.  My blood was so thick was so thick when I saw the doc the previous day so he called me and told me if I was still feeling bad to go to the hospital.  When I go to the ER, they couldn't run any of the tests after two draws so they admitted me for hydration and ( Read more... )

I think I have pancreatitis again.  Same symptoms.  FML.  Going to the doc tomorrow, let's hope I don't get stuck in the goddamn hospital again.

Also still waiting on the results of the bloodwork and stuff for the pheochromocytoma.

GODDAMMIT.  I called my aunt because I'm scared and mad and upset about the pheo and she's instead going on about how she has this problem and that problem and "Well *I* have..."  I CALLED YOU FOR SUPPORT AND HELP AND YOU ARE JUST MAKING ME FEEL WORSE.  I know she has a ruptured Achilles tendon and that has to be terrible and the surgery for it is ( Read more... )

Ok, this crap with my health is really starting to get old.  And scary, honestly.  My endocrinologist thinks I may have a pheochromocytoma and my liver enzymes are elevated.  I need a bunch more tests and if I do have a pheo, more surgery.  WTF body?  I have the triad of symptoms that indicates a pheo though, I have headaches almost every day (plus ( Read more... )

Just got home from the hospital.  Went to the ER Tuesday night for a migraine, turns out my BP was 192/122.  Bad.  Also turns out I'm allergic to labetolol (a bp med).  Whoops.  I appear to be fine now.

See Rachel, it's not you.  I just happen to get sick in the winter XD

Life is kicking me in the metaphorical nuts.  When I saw the GYN for my follow-up after surgery, I found out he did NOT actually remove the ovary, just the 5 cm cyst, so I may get ANOTHER cyst on that ovary.  Or the left cause that one had a 2 cm cyst a month ago that resolved on its own.  So far I've had two cysts form on the right ovary, one 4 cm ( Read more... )

Surgery is next Thursday.  Goodbye, ovary, we've had a great run T_T  Going to do my HH mount runs and then lay on the couch and watch Repo! The Genetic Opera.

 FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.  I think our A/C is broken as it's about 10 degrees warmer in here than the A/C is set to, making it damn near as hot as outside.  The air doesn't feel cool from the vents, but it's running which is a good thing... maybe.  Best case scenario is an expensive freon refill, worst case is a super-expensive replacement of ( Read more... )

 Surgery was done this morning. In addition to other things, there was a HUAGMONGOUS cyst on my right ovary somewhere between the size of a golf ball and a lemon (we're not entirely sure from the doctor's ambiguous size indications). HOLY OMFG.  I knew I'd been having a lot of pain on my right side but I thought it was like my gallbladder or ( Read more... )

 AUGH Tornado Watch and winds of 65 mph :\  Powering down the compy for now.
