an update on me
i went to the er yesterday afternoon at about 3pm because the pain i was experiencing was so intense and wasn't getting better (in fact, it was getting worse!) so, after being there for 9 hours (yes, NINE HOURS!!!) and having a ct scan with contrast dye it was determined that i have an obstruction and as a result of that, i have a LARGE amount of feces in my colon. so, magnesium citrate here i come!

oh and then i woke up this morning with increased chest and sinus congestion and coughing coupled with sensitive skin and way more dry heaving. looks like i've got the flu as well my mom and my brother are both having the same symptoms. hopefully i'll start to feel better in a few days...
i go see my surgeon tuesday morning and i'm making sure that he gets the er reports to go over before i get there. the er doc didn't have any explanation as to what caused this to happen so you'd better believe i'm going to be asking dr. facundus that very question! because, i consume lots of fiber and fluids AND i "go" every single day, at least ONCE every day. i haven't noticed any slow-down or other changes in my bowel habits so i really don't even understand how this happened in the first place, kwim? any ideas out there?
