Insides update

So as I am not a long story teller I am just going to give you the facts. Since about January the porcelain bowl has been my best friend. We meet with each other about every week or so. At first Jesse and I thought my sickness was due to some bad food at the school cafeteria but after 2 months we decided to go to the Doctor. Well at that Dr. visit in March I was told that I have PCOS and I needed to be put on birth control in order to have kids. That's odd, the pill to have kids? PCOS is where there a bunch of little cysts on your ovaries and there are other side effects (if you are truly interested you can look up.) SO back to the reason I went to the Doctor. He said that the reason I had been sick was probably because the cysts were bursting. So I say "ok" and go home. Well it's April now and my visits with Mr porcelain bowl increased. These visits are not very pleasant either. They are very painful and remind me of labor. So I went to the doctor again and said "look we need to get this under control" and he listened this time. So yesterday I went to get a Ct scan and the results are in. I am not dying of cancer like I thought I was (since my mom died from it) All my insides are normal (besides the non specific fluid in my pelvis) and he said I am fine. Hummmm how can I be fine if I keep pooping like crazy? And what is this non specific fluid in my pelvis? He THINKS that I am lactose intolerant and need to stay away from whole grains. So now No milk products for me and lots and lots of veggies. We shall see what happens now. I love cheese. Hopefully this is the cure and the non specific fluid in my pelvis will go away and I can be normal again having more babies...

Yuck...that doesn't sound fun at all. I'm sorry you're going through that! I've been friends with mr porcelain bowl for just a few days (some bug I caught), I can't imagine doing it for months. Hope you get things figured out!

Love you!

Glad you posted the update! doctors are so annoying sometimes--telling you your just fine when you're like THIS IS NOT NORMAL! Did you throw up when you would drink milk when you were pregnant? Am I making that up? Maybe you ARE lactose intolerant.

Hopefully this new info will prove useful...I hope it works!!!

You may have endometriosis. It's where your uterine lining is always really thick and it makes it extremely hard to keep any fertilized eggs in there. I know, TMI. There's a special diet to help with its symptoms, mush like the no grains/no dairy one you're doing right now. GOOD LUCK!!! I hope you feel better pronto.

You are right I did throw up for a month when having milk while pregnant. That's why I think the doc MAY be right on this one.

Well I hope it's as simple as a lactose intolerance! Hang in there!

I'm so sorry. That really makes life miserable...I totally have a pet peeve about dr's NOT knowing what is up. My sister has been to three different doctors and got three different diagnoses. What's up with that? I hope everything quickly is resolved! love ya!

Uh. . . you need a specialist. That's kinda creepy. Now I shouldn't say this because the show is WAY trashy, but I'm a little (a lot) obsessed with The Private Practice and I think you need to make a visit to Oceanside Wellness. They'd fix you up for sure!

Love you!
