Well today was eventful. In the midst of my other post I was in the ER because I thought i had an appendicitis. I mean, I was in tears because I was in so much pain...

I got my 1st CT scan and boy did that spark my anxiety! I wanted to crawl out of that thing. Anyways. Test all came back normal (which is great when ya have health anxiety!)

But I do have a 4mm kidney stone! OUCH. I refuse to take my pain meds bc they're narcotics. Such a vicious cycle. Anyways.

Now off to school work. Online classes are eating me up with stress. Trying to keep up. Hopefully I make it out alive.

I am so glad all tests came back normal !

I also don’t like pain medication so I understand. Sometimes medication is needed so I have had to make exceptions.

Talking to my doctor about medication choices always make me feel better even if it is just Tylenol or Advil .

Hope you feel better soon !
