Health update

For those who are keeping track, I'm doing better. My liver function is almost normal. I've had more scans, and more of me is confirmed as healthy. They did find gallstones, but the doctor says that my pain is too high to be caused by them. I think he might be full of poop, since from what I read I meet the symptoms pretty spot on. I am still to rest up, and I have another run of tests on Monday. Hopefully my liver will be all the way better. I am going to ask for a second opinion reg. my gallbladder since they have no earthly clue as to what else might be causing the pain. In the pain front, things are better. Maybe because my improved liver means that I can take something for it (preventative, twice a day), and maybe because I've been eating a gallbladder friendly diet (Fruit and veg mostly in raw form, apple and grape juice, and as much water as I can stand. Getting fats really only from salmon, avacado, and olive oil). I feel really woozy a lot, and out of it. I am not sure if its the liver meds, the pain meds, or another effect of what ever is going on (or if I am having meat/sugar/fat withdrawal). Anyhow, I appreciate the good vibes, and I ask that people continue to send them while we get this sorted out.
