So I might need another sugery... I don't know how many of you remember that I had an emergency abdominal surgery last november and ended up in the hospital for about 10 days.
Well, about a month ago I started having symptoms again. I schedule a doc's appt for this coming wednesday and went in to get xrays on friday. It turned out that they had me go directly to my doctor who had me go get a cat scan that same night. He showed up at my cat scan and told me that he needs to do an endoscopy this friday. So I will be celebrating the end of finals by being on a clear liquid diet and drinking fleet all night. if you don't know what fleet is, pray that you'll never have to.
He said that the part of my colon that he sewed together last time looks narrow and he doesn't know if its scar tissue that grew in the last few months or spasms. The upper part of my colon is so filled with air that it is pressing into my chest, which explains how quickly I've been running out of breath lately and the extremem lack of breath support I had during band this season.
I am not looking forward to going through this again. At all. But I thought you guys deserved an update. If I have to have surgery I think I'm going to end up with a specialist so it'll be in Cincinnati, and I would love visitors!
Ok, time to go study, and figure out what postmodernism possibly has to do with sociology.
kisses.
