Another Health Update

Sep 09, 2008 20:28



So the deal thus far is this:

I went to the G.I. doctor. We found out that I lost more weight. Not good.

After discussing my symptoms the doctor scheduled me to have an upper endoscopy next Wednesday. For those of you who don’t know and are curious, I will copy an excerpt from a pamphlet I received on Upper Endoscopies:

Why is Upper Endoscopy Done?

Alright. Well, as trite as it is to say so, I want you to know you're in my thoughts and prayers. I hope the doctors find out what's wrong so you can start getting better.

Don't forget, too, that we're here for you. Call, e-mail, whatever. Again, the time of day or night is irrelevant. If you need to talk about what's going on, or as I suspect is sometimes the case, you need to talk not about what's going on, just give me or anyof the other chuckleheads that've attached themselves to you in the past year or so a call.

Coolness is severely lack without you around. Get better soon!

Nah, it's not trite. It's very sweet and it means a lot. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. ^^

It's also great to have a support system and know that you guys are there for me. I would've taken you up on your offer to call several times by now if it weren't for the fact that I've just been feeling so yucky that even talking to people on the phone is tiring. I sleep most of the day too because this certain medicine I have to take for pain makes me really drowsy. I'm not complaining though. Before that, I couldn't sleep at all. lol. So it's a much appreciated change. But I will definitely keep in touch with everyone. That's a promise. I also hope to be seeing you guys sometime in October if all goes well.

Awww. Coolness is severly lack without me? I think that's one of the nicest compliments I've ever recieved. lol. Well, thanks and I hope to bring back more "coolness" as soon as possible. Thanks for the well-wishes! =D

Oh, well, again I hope they find SOMETHING. I don't want you to have to go through too many stressful doctors appointments. Call me if you need to!!

Milk of Magnesia... I think that was it, yeah. XD But mine might have been like... bubble gum flavored or something else more mild than cherry.

Yeah, you and me both. I'd rather not go through too many "in-depth" surgeries just to find out what's wrong. Lord knows that once they do find out what's wrong, I may have to get surgery anyway. So the sooner and easier they're able to find out what's wrong, the better. But I'm working hard at trying to get better. I even have an appointment with a psychiatrist to help get my emotional health back up to speed. That in itself should have a positive effect on my physical health. And as always, I'll keep you updated ( ... )

Oh man, that sounds rough. I really hope that this will shed some light on what's been going on. (At least you get to be asleep for the procedure!)

Dan's not the only one who's been praying for you. Hang in there, and know that we're all here for you.

Yeah. Me too. So keep your fingers crossed for me. We really need to find out what's going on.

And of course, I know I have your support as well, which also means a lot. You've been an amazing friend as well and I thank god that I had the opportunity to get to know you over the past few months. Thanks for your prayers and support, as always! =D
