I've been struggling with a lot of things - like pain, nausea, fatigue, weight loss, dehydration...and diarrhea. The diarrhea you guys.
I could handle all of those other things if the stupid diarrhea would just stop already!
I blame it for the weight loss and dehydration. My appetite is actually pretty good (when I stay on top of the nausea), and I eat pretty much whatever the hell I want (calories shmalories at this point...i'm too thin and it grosses me out). The problem is all that seems to just go straight through me. I hope my body is clinging to at least some of it - any calories or nutrition it can hold onto would be great. So if you see me (well, first of all be shocked cause i stay home almost all the time cause you never know when my stomach might cramp up and I have to run to the bathroom)...but if you see me and think "wow, she needs to eat"...believe me..i'm trying. Instead you should think "wow...i hope she stops pooping soon". :)
I made a list of things to talk to the dr about on Monday. Diarrhea is one of them (again). Maybe this time I will be more insistent on figuring out WHY THE HELL?? I say that, but in reality when I get to the dr my mind goes blank and i just sit there and nod. Last time I went in on my own and afterwards my mom and Ben were asking all kinds of "did you ask him this?" questions and I was like...uh...no? I told Ben that I can't go in there alone anymore. I obviously can't be trusted on my own. He will be coming in with me from now on.
This weekend is supposed to be nice and there is a lot going on. AWARE run/walk on Saturday morning! I have a team of warriors doing this event - including Tyler and Sammy. After the event Charlie has football, and on Sunday the boys will be playing baseball. All of these things are happening in Storm Lake and I am planning to attend them all. HOPING I won't be sprinting towards a bathroom during any/all of them!!!
