Listening to: “Pushit (Live)” by Tool
I have an appointment tomorrow with a gastroenterologist and I’m kind of nervous. For the past few months, I’ve been having really bad stomach problems. It started out once every other week or so, moved to once a week, then every other day, and now it’s all day, every day. When I’m eating or when I’m not eating, my stomach is killing me. It’s like a dull pain, with little shocks of sharp pain thrown in. It gets worse after I eat. I feel a stabbing pain that lasts for hours. I was taking Aleve for it, but figured that probably wasn’t the best thing for my stomach, so now I’m just suffering through it until I can get some Tylenol or Tums or Maalox. I have no idea what the problem could be. I originally thought it was my PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) because I would start spotting afterwards, but I went to the gynecologist and she said everything was fine. So the blood is coming from somewhere, right? After the second job tonight, I need to write down all of my symptoms and bring the list with me, so I don’t forget anything. Right now, I just want to know what’s wrong, so that I can fix it. I was talking to a friend of mine and she said she had similar problems and they thought she might have developed a gluten allergy. I was thinking that too until my stomach started hurting constantly, whether I was eating or not.
In other news…well, there is no other news. I’m working all the time and it’s starting to take it’s toll. I’m tired all the time and I feel like I can never get enough sleep, but when I lay down at night, there’s too much going on in my head and I feel like I can’t relax. I started re-reading the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyers since the fourth book is coming out soon and the movie will be out in December. I just finished Eclipse the night before, so now I’m back to book one, Twilight. I’m kind of hesitant to read New Moon again because I connected so much emotionally to that book that I would sit and cry while I was reading it. It evoked so much inside of my head and my heart. I don’t know if I have the energy to go through that again. But anyway…I’m reading them at night before I go to bed, so I an at least relax a little.
Besides working and working, nothing new is going on. Trying to keep up with the 365 for Flickr and continuing to think about what I’m doing with my life. But I guess that’s an every day thing anyway.
