another quick update . . .
just got back from the doctor's re the tests that were done after the er visit 3 weeks ago . . .
well, what she thinks happened 3 weeks ago was - i may have had mono - which of course they didn't check for in the tests done at the er - even tho i had pain in an associated area, raised white count, fever, & a number of other symptoms . . . would also account for my being so slow to gt back on my feet. no idea how i'd'a gotten it . . .
but we'll never know now.
the bad thing is, they found several cysts on my liver - one of which is 13cm big! they found them in the abdominal ultrasound they did - and now she wants me to go for a cat scan (it's on friday) - she says they look like benign cysts, but given the size of the one, and the fact that my liver is lower than it should be by several inches, she wants to be sure.
i am really depressed. came home crying. the boys were great abt it, and i'll be calm enough by the time i see m this eve not to upset him too much.
but geesh! more crap from my body! why can't i just be normal?!
sorry this is so depressing . . . can't even think of a pic that'd cheer me up - oh wait a minute! yes i can - gakked from a stephen fry site:
