To get you all up to date...
A little over a month ago I went to Urgent Care (next step down from the E.R.) due to horrible abodminal pains. I had blood tests done that came back to tell me I had a high enzyme indicating gall bladder problems. What I wasn't told was I had a high enzyme level in my liver as well. Found that out last week.
So I've had x-rays done, with nothing to show, an ultra sound to say that I have no gall stones so surgery isn't a must at the moment and that my liver is denser than a normal liver.
Found out today what that could mean. Yes yes, I know I'm overweight and the density of my liver could be accompanied with excess fat. So yeah, I know, I need to exercise more and go on a diet.
Also, the pain I've been having (which I knew wasn't located around my gall bladder but lower) is around my appendix area. SO with that in mind, I am going in for a lower abdomen and pelvic CT scan tomorrow afternoon. I had to drink this nasty shit to illuminate my insides and get to drink more tomorrow. So that's what's going on.
