Gall bladder? hmmm maybe? maybe something more omnious. I am a positive thinker--it's not the ominous stuff.
I had an ok day Monday, but yesterday was slightly similar to Sunday night. I was thinking a urinary tract infection, so caved and went to the doctor. I wasn't ready to stand on their scale...and........I've lost almost a 1/2 inch in height. Damn. I'll be a leprechaun soon. Bmi gets higher.
Anyway, the doc is thinking gallbladder but is concerned since I have a half sister who passed from Ovarian cancer. We agreed some of my weird symptoms are hormones / perimenopause. In talking with the doc I realized that of my mother and sisters and I , I am the only one going through the menopause process. I've never had children and they all had hysterectomies while in their 30's, so I'm' the odd girl out.
Uncharted territory . Going for full ultrasound this afternoon. I'm nothing by mouth after 7 am this morning. This girl had to have her brekkie and I don't think I could have made it that long.
I'm still
I hope you get an answer and find out it is nothing serious. My last pain turned out to be an umbilical hernia. I self-diagnosed using the internet:) And had a doctor confirm it, of course. But my first thought was appendix!
ReplyDeleteInteresting re your mother and sisters!! My mother had a hysterectomy in her early 30s and my half-sister (same mother, different father) had one last year (she just turned 40) and so I am like you...the only one going through it naturally (and I never had kids, either). Keep us posted!
ReplyDeletePositive thinking is always good, but having a doc check things out is even better.
