Emergency Room
10 years ago
I got my Master to post about this on Facebook, but he didn't post on here.
We rushed to the ER last night. I have no clue, I have had increasingly painful abdominal pain and headaches so bad I see stars. These have been alleviated by heavy ibuprofen, how I made FangCon happen for a single day. It's reached a 9 on the pain scale today, and my 10 is a two-man lead pipe beating. It's excruciating. I'm on 1800 ibuprofen and it has brought it to a 7.
Oh! While at the ER I had a respiratory reaction to latex.
Anyway, all three CT scans were perfect, blood perfect, urine fine. Good and awful news, because I still have no explanation for the excruciating pain.
At the general practitioner I've been having a shitload of testing done, to figure out why my body has been acting bizarrely for a year and a half, recent pain not included:
• Hormonal testing came back fine
• Blood pressure is literally perfect
• Common blood screening came back normal
• My pee is perfect
• My ongoing weight loss isn't a factor and my current weight isn't an issue whatsoever
• All three pelvic ultrasounds (abdominal side, abdominal side, and internal) came back showing a "uncommonly healthy uterus"
• Biopsy of the tiny internal nodule came back normal
I don't have PCOS, a thyroid issue, ectopic pregnancy, or any of the other initial assumptions. This is great news, and awful news. What is wrong with me??? We are on to parasite and neurological testing, and I get the exciting task of "shopping" the appropriate practitioners for such.
Fact of the day: People with anemia should avoid Ibuprofen, because it has the chance of making you bleed out. (Not what happened, but something I NEVER knew and learned tonight.)

You're so amazingly healthy that your body is pitching a fit because, y'know, a monthly cycle ain't hardcore enough to trouble you with.
During tonight's prayers, you'll be in them.
Please have your Master keep us in the loop. I've been worrying as I hadn't heard from you for awhile.
