Small update on my problem. I went back into the doctor. The drink stuff they gave me worked, but only for a couple of hours. So not only did they prescribe that....they doubled my dose of acid reflux meds, and then prescribed this crazy stuff called Ultracet. A side effect is seizures...I took one last night...and it took an hour to kick in. But when it did, it made me feel a lot better. I actually slept most of the night. I really don't like sleeping sitting up. Both of the medications I am on make me extremely fatigued. I waited until I got back from my plant tour today in order to take them, because I didn't want to fall asleep while I was driving.

And, I got zilch done in regards to packing. I can't even do something for more than 30 minutes without wanting to nap. I did eat my first meal today, I ate half a chicken wrap with nothing on it except lettuce and a small amount of cheese.

This bland diet totally sucks. I hope they get my bloodwork back quickly, so I know whats going on. I am already tired of eating cheerios.

Geez, I sound like an 80 year old lady. I am just frustrated. I can't eat much, and I am really hungry at the same time. Everytime I eat it makes my stomach sort of upset.

I hope I am better by tomorrow, I am supposed to go out for my birthday, but if I still feel this way I won't be doing anything. I obviously won't be having any alcohol. Heck I can't remember the last time I drank more than 2-3 drinks in a night out.

In happier news, I found an independent record shop the other day. Its right by here. I think I might go check it out this weekend. I hope they have some good vinyl to buy. Not many places sell newer albums that way anymore. Tower did in Michigan, but they aren't there anymore. I miss FBC.

The worst thing about this illness is that they aren't helping me to prevent these episodes, they are just giving me stuff to make the pain go away, and nothing to fix it. Blah.
