View Full Version : I need to feel better. NOW.

I just want to cry.

I was sick last week (posted here about it, in fact) with a sore throat. Finally got over that Saturday, only to be hit HARD with what I thought was a stomach virus yesterday morning. But the vomiting turned into vomiting with radiating pain in my abdomen, along with some bleeding. So now I'm sitting in the ER being tested for an ulcer or gallbladder issues or God-only-knows what. I also have the worst headache of my life, probably because I'm dehydrated, but they can't run fluids until these tests are done.

I missed a parasitology test yesterday, a genetics test today, and I have an organic chem test at 9am tomorrow morning. I've been keeping my professors updated via email and I'm just crossing all my fingers and toes that they'll let me make this stuff up. My poor kids are probably forgetting who I am, and I'm gonna owe the nanny an extra week's salary in overtime.

I'm 26 freaking years old! I do not have time to fall apart. Get it together immune system. I need to be healthy like three days ago.

Oh No Stacy. I hope you get better soon, and it's nothing serious. Don't worry about school. Get a Dr's note to give the missed exams, and they'll let you make it up. Not much you can do when you're in the ER.

Sending Get Well vibes.

Yikes! Judging from your stress levels...an ulcer wouldn't be out of the question. I ended up in the ER during my Hawaiian vacation 2 weeks ago, only to find the debilitating pain in my stomach was indeed an ulcer. :( Yuk. But after a night in the hospital, they gave me some meds & sent me on my way to enjoy my vacation. Hopefully your end story is quick & easy too. Good luck!

Thanks ladies! I'm unfortunately not doing much better. They're thinking gallbladder? I'm going to see a family friend who is an internal medicine specialist tomorrow. Think happy thoughts!

(my professors are amazing and are letting me make up everything next week, thank God)
