Hurts like a bitch

Jul 05, 2007 08:46

My 4th of July was filled with pain, really severe pain. Tuesday night I started having, what I thought, was stomach cramps in my upper abdomen. They got worse as the night went on and I got little sleep. Finally after trying a couple of stomach over-the-counter meds, my mom and I went to Texas Med Clinic. She started poking me and found the source of my pain was from my gallbladder. So then they sent us somewhere else for an ultrasound which found nothing, but they also did the ultrasound too close to when I had eaten. Apparently there's supposed to be a 6-8 hour gap between when you've eaten and you get the ultrasound. My time gap was 4 hours. I got some painkillers and I'm no longer having the severe pain but my whole abdomen is aching. It feels like I'm sore and I can't walk or pretty much move without feeling this aching pain. Basically if I don't feel better today or tomorrow I need to go see my actual physician. I wish they would just take out my gallbladder and my appendix because all they do is cause me trouble. I'm missing work today because of all this.
