So, Last Friday I had an abscess drained from my tailbone. It hurt a lot, I was given drugs and spent most of Friday night in a medicated stupor. I walked funny on Saturday and on Sunday I had it unpacked...which caused more funny walking but eliminated a lot of the pain. Sunday afternoon I'm eating snacks with my family enjoying being home for a few hours before I have to start studying again. All of the sudden Blinding Pain in stomach. Vomit in Toilet. More blinding pain. Rush to the emergency room. More wonderful drugs that push me into stupor. battery of tests. not my appendix. not my liver. could be my gall bladder but not gallstones. eventually the pain recedes and I get sent home with the instructions that under no circumstances am i to eat...anything for the next twentyfour hours but clear liquids. I am to stay away from fatty foods indefinetly. and i am to sleep a lot. Mind you, I still have two more exams and my thesis to hand in. I don't understand why they didn't just kill me when I told them too, lying on the bathroom floor writhing in pain.
