Illness pt 1

Hello everyone! In order to get everyone apprised of what is going on with me, I thought I'd post it on my blog and let everyone read up on it if they so choose.

So! just to get everyone up to par, I thought I'd just summarize everything now and then just post updates as everything goes on. Test results, Dr appoints and such.

Week 1 Originally, I thought all of this was just an ovarian cyst so I put it off for awhile. Then it got to be too much and I had suffered though my tests so I went to an urgent care clinic Monday morning and got an appointment with an OB-GYN the next day. And some pain medications... Tuesday: I had an appointment with the OB-GYN and she set up an Ultrasound for the next day. Wednesday: Ultrasound, but the Tech wouldn't tell me anything. Then Friday: I missed an appointment with my Neurologist because they changed addresses across town and didn't let me know.

Week 2: Monday brought another OB-GYN appointment for me. With that brought the news that I did have a large hemorrhagic cyst on my right ovary but it had burst. Also, although this would cause me pain, it wouldn't cause the amount of pain that I was in. So I got set up with a GI specialist and a general surgeon.

Now I don't remember the dates and I'm too lazy to look them up so I'm just going to go with what I remember as the correct timeline

I went to the GI guy, and he said something about Crohns disease, which is where your immune system attacks your large intestine or something like that. So I have a colonoscopy scheduled

Then I had an appointment with general surgery and the nice Dr that told me there are only 3 things that could be wrong in that particular region. Ovaries, GI something that general surgery can deal with.

Oh, and on top of all of this, that blind spot the eye Dr saw this summer? Turned out to be a big thing. They just messed up all the migraine meds it took me years to figure out how to use to the best for me and stopped most of my migraines. Because my meds stopped, my headaches are back. So pain meds for that.

So, next on my list of appointments. This Thursday I have a CT. Next Wednesday I have the colonoscopy. and the MRI date is TBA unfortunately.
