Hey ya'll

I hope I am not intruding. But you guys seem like a great group of people. May I join in on the fun??? Love ya'll, Linda PS--I am going to have an ultrasound done on my gall bladder on Monday. Wish me luck. I hope they do find out what is wrong with me. If my gall bladder is good then I have to get a scope done. That does not sound to fun. My doctor is doing all kinds of blood work. My stomach has been hurting for about 2 months now and has gotten worse in last 3 weeks. Doesn't matter what I eat it hurts and I feel very nauseated (sp??). I have also been getting dizzy and getting the shakes. So she is having me tested for everything, it seems like anyway. She even said I may be mal-nourished. She said something like I may be anorexic??? I mean give me a break. I eat all the time. I have lost 115 pounds I weigh 131 pounds. I am currently in a size 6, but could wear a size 4 since my 6 pants I have to wear a belt with. I am 5 foot 4 inches. Does sound anorexic? I just kinda laughed when she said that. A year ago I was 250 pounds. How can she be saying I am anorexic? Linda

Intruding??? How could you be intruding???? We WANTED you here! I was hoping you would come join us. Good luck with your ultrasound. Hopefully they will find out what it is and hopefully it will be something simple. I know people used to call me anorexic when I weighed 130 lbs., but I was 5'11"! You are a tiny little thing! If I ever lose all my weight and someone calls me anorexic, I will be I remember when Dolly Parton lost all her weight, people were saying she was anorexic and she said, "Honey, hogs don't get anorexia!" She's so funny. So that's what I will have to say. (Not calling you a hog, sweet Linda, just passing along what Dolly said.) Anyway, I am so glad you are here! I had asked Renee to invite you and when you didn't show up immediately, I was gonna send out a posse myself! Love you, Joni

Hey Joni! How are ya? I don't get on the boards very often. You are such a sweet lady. I am so glad I got to meet you. Those of you that haven't meet Joni yet are really missing out. Well I am going to rest now. I have a big day tomorrow. I am trying to get my old job back at Mcdonald's. So I have to work at Movie Gallery tomorrow at 8am and when I get there I have to call the director of operations at Mcdonalds to talk to him about me coming back to work. We will see what happens. Please pray that I can get my old job back. I will make more money too. I also have to get the ultrasound done tomorrow at 2:30pm. I can not have anything to eat or drin****il after the procedure. That is going to be hard. I usually have coffee first thing in the mornings, but not tomorrow. I hope I don't forget. Take care, Linda

Get in here and give me a hug girl!... I am happy to see you again. It has been toooooooooooo long since we heard from you!!! I am sorry you are having a terrible time. It does sound like your gall bladder to me but I will feel better when you have had it checked out. Hope you feel better soon, and please dont be a stranger! You are a sight for sore eyes!!! Love & Light! Sandy

Hey Sandy. You are too sweet. How are you? I have been way for a long time. I don't hardly ever get a chance to get on here. I hope to be posting on here more often. Love, Linda

HEY!!!!!!!!!! Glad you are here with us!!! Love you girl, Lindy

Hey Lindy, how are you? I have been better. I hope they can find out what is wrong with me. I am pretty sure it is my gall bladder. It is good to see you. Love, Linda

Hey Linda, We are glad you are here. I hope they soon find out what's going on with you. Good luck with all those tests. Beth

Thanks Beth. How are you doing? It is good to hear from everyone. I will keep ya'll informed. I hope to find out something about my blood work tomorrow. Take Care!! Linda

Hi Linda! Glad to see you posting again and great to have you here with us! I sure do hope you get these health issues worked out. I know how scary it is not to know what is going on. Especially when it has gone on as long as it has. Keep us posted! Gail
