Recovery

I had my gall bladder out almost a week ago. Its been harder on my body than I though. Im finally going back to work tomorrow and have mixed emotions. Im bored outta my mind at home, but I dont really have full range of motion in my torso. It will be good for me to get outta the house for a while, im going stir crazy! I just have 4 little incision in my tummy. the one on the belly button definitely hurts the worst! I cant sit up in the mornings without a HORRIBLE pain. But once thats over with I feel better with just ibuprofen. I've been taking a pain pill just at night mostly to help me sleep. They seem to just make me sleep through the pain which is good. I have had such a great support system. Nick and my parents have been here all day almost everyday as well as Rachy! And people in my ward have called and visited almost everyday. It made me realize how many people really care about me :) I love my life. And I love my family and my future in laws. They are definitely some of my best friends. I cant wait to marry Nick. I got my temple recommend tonight. Its all falling into place. I also got my bridals done :) SO CUTE!!!

Results!

So in just the past month I have had the following tests done...
*Colonoscopy
*Pancreas/stomach blood tests
*Ultra Sound
*Upper Scope
*Biopsys
*Hida Scan
And I am SOO happy to say we FINALLY got some results. The purpose of the hida scan was to test my gall bladder, which is what we have been suspecting for the past 3 years or so, but couldnt get any doctor to listen long enough. So they injected me with a chemical that is supposed to cause a gall bladder attack if thats what it is. I got a little bit nauseous but it wasnt anything horrible, so I figured dang it, its not that either. That night I got REALLY sick. Then on monday I called to get my results all the nurse would say was "he'll tell you at your follow up on wednesday." So i get there Wednesday morning and he says a normal gall bladder functions at 35 percent and mine is at 1.5 percent, which means its barely releasing anything at all. So he referred me to a surgeon. We met with him yesterday and as he was reading my results he says wait, wait, wait. Your gall bladder is NOT at 1.5 percent its at NEGATIVE 1.5 percent. Which means its not releasing ANY bile at all. It just keeps getting bigger as bile produces in it. So during the test, rather than releasing the chemical, it just held it in there and got larger. So next Thursday, March 11th I am getting my gall bladder out. Im so scared, but so relieved at the same time. I wont have to live with pain EVERYDAY. I told my surgeon, "I dont know what I'd do if I woke up one morning and wasn't in pain! I think I'd freak out!"

ALSO...
Happy 8 months to my smokin hot fiance. I can't wait to start forever. We get sealed in 1 month and 5 days. And its dragging! I LOVE YOU BABE!

Sick of being sick

So as most of you probably know, I've had stomach problems for SEVERAL years. This past year they have become MUCH more intense. To the point that I can't stand it without pain medication. Saturday morning at 6 I ended up in the ER on morphine. They gave me anti-nausea medication and I had an allergic reaction which caused my heart rate to go SO high it set the alarms off, and it made me freak out and yell at everybody to take me home. It was TERRIFYING! After a few hours at the hospital, they took blood and urine and tested my pancreas. Everything looked normal. I am SO sick of hearing that! Last week I had a colonoscopy "Looks good" a few years ago an upper endoscopy "looks normal" Monday night I had an ultra sound. I call today to get those results. Obviously not everything can be that good if I am in this much pain! I wish they could figure it out so I can be healthy and happy again!!

Sometimes, you just need to hear this song...

Right now I have a prayer deep within my heart.
A prayer for each of you there is a special part
That you remember who you are and Him who lives above
Please seek for Him and live His way;
You'll feel His love.
(Chorus)
Walk tall you're a daughter, a child of God.
Be strong, please remember who you are.
Try to understand, you're part of His great plan.
He's closer than you know, reach up,He'll take your hand.
Long before the time you can remember,
Our father held you in His arms so tender.
Those loving arms released you as He sent you down to earth.
He said, "My child, I love you,don't forget your great worth."
(chorus)
This life on earth we knew would not be easy.
At times we lose our way, His path we may not see.
But please remember, always, please, that you are not alone.
He'll take your hand, He loves you.
He will guide you home.

Walk tall you're a daughter, a child of God.
Be strong, please remember who you are.
Try to understand, you're part of His great plan.
He's closer than you know, reach up, He'll take your hand.
