Okay well it turns out to NOT be heartburn, it is, in fact, GALL BLADDER TROUBLES! Woohoo! So it feels good to know that I was right and the doctor was wrong… oh wait, no it doesn’t. So I had to do my own research and turn around and go into the E.R. and say my gall bladder hurts, it’s not heartburn and I’m not leaving until it’s fixed! So four days later I have a gall bladder removed and I’m recovering from surgery. Whoa. Do you know what is worse than bitchy day nurses and four wounds on your abdomen? Well I will tell you, it is to have a bitchy day nurse, four wounds on your abdomen, recovering from surgery AND hiccups. That’s right folks… I got the hiccups an hour and a half after surgery. That was unpleasant.So now I am home, the doctor has ordered me to be home for a week so I am going to learn how to quilt. That also means I will not be returning to Cape Cod Five ::secretly happy:: I think that’s all the news for now… I got really lucky in my surgery. Any later and they would have had to make one huge cut instead of four smaller ones… I’m sore and now I’m going to bed.There is no way in hell I’d put my pictures up on here, but just so you get an idea I’m putting somebody else’s pictures up. It’s their own damn fault for putting them up on the internet. For the record… NOT my belly.
Honestly who would put this up on the internet? Gross.
Fascinating stuff isn’t it?
And again for the record: not my granny panties & not my belly. Although, Tristan was a trooper who stuck by my side despite it being smurf blue from the antiseptic, swollen from the gases they use, black and blue from the surgery, my granny panties and my paper gown. Sexy right?
P.S. I tried changing the font to Georgia and it shrunk to teeny proportions that I do not yet know how to fix…so I hope you can see this.










I’m sorry you had to have this done … but this was LOL: “I’m putting somebody else’s pictures up. It’s their own damn fault for putting them up on the internet. For the record… NOT my belly.”
And wow, the doctor was wrong! It’s a good thing you’re on the ball, or you’d be in a lot of trouble. How awful that you had to do your own diagnosing. But it seems like is happening more and more, and too many people don’t speak up when they suspect the doctor isn’t right.
I hope you’re feeling better.
@ Wendy – Well I knew I’d have to figure it out when I went into the Urgent Care Center… they’re awful! Have you ever tried to go in there for anything? No matter what it is vicodin is the answer with some rest. Idiots really… When you go into the ER they have the same approach unless you have an idea. Lucky webmd helped me out and I pointed the doctors in the right direction! lol
