Fun day with the Doc

So I thought my gallbladder was acting up...why, you may ask? Sharp shooting pains on my right side, intermittent, but tolerable most of the time. None of my female blood relatives have their gallbladders anymore. And, I've dropped 82lbs in 5 months. All signs point to gallbladder.

Went to the dr. today. I was the only one there, and it was awesome. Got bloodwork, urine sample, and x-rays done in less than an hour. Had some fun. Fun Friday banter with the staff.

Turns out, the gallbladder is okay, but the big YAY was the result of my blood tests. Apparently, everything looks great. No anemia, no deficiencies, and everything is perfect. I'm so proud.

On the bad side, I have a UTI. Looks like antibiotics and diet cranberry juice for me for the next week or so. But still, I'm healthy, so hell, that can't even ruin my day.

I'm just so grateful to be healthy. Life's been going to **** recently, but at least I've got my health.

UTI's are easy! congrats on the good bloodwork!!!

Keep thinking positive and the rest of your issues will resolve themselves.

Best of luck!
