(no subject)
So..... I've been sick for a while. I haven't known what was wrong.... just that something was.
I've talked to my mom about it a few times (I figured she would know because she has a million and one stomach problems). Well.... she gave me some tips and some advice and I took most of it. I didn't eat dairy for a little while.... still pain.... I stopped eating red meat for a little while.... still pain....
I had no idea what was wrong with me....
So I talked to her last night..... and she JUST NOW decides to mention that she has the Chron's gene and she's borderline herself.
So I then looked on-line about the disease and EVERY SINGLE THING THEY SAID, makes the perfect amout of sense.
all of the symptoms..... it's genetic..... more prominent in smokers.....
now there's another problem.... not only do I have this disease that could KILL ME if I don't get help..... I don't have a doctor around here and I don't have money to get help.
and since diet doesn't really change a thing when you have chron's... there's nothing I can do aside from going to the doctor's.
which I clearly cannot do.
I'm stressed.....
My sister's wedding is in two days.... I have to work wih this horrendous pain in my abdomin.... and nothing is going well at all.... everything is falling apart.... especially my body.....
I do find it ironic that I often tell Heidi that I've never had anything seriously, medically wrong with me....
I guess I took it for granted.
