Still Struggling With Mystery Stomach Pain
3 hours later I was back in my room with back pain, stomach pain and a huge amount of aggravation. The gall bladder tech said I would have to wait to do the test since I had the broth that am. It would have been nice if they told me that sooner, or checked to see if I had already eaten that day. We just spent a huge amount of unnecesary time waiting for transporters and me in pain. I completely broke down. I was so frustrated that I couldn’t eat and was so hungry, frustrated that the stupid gall test was going to be two hours and I would have to go for a total of 6 without pain meds, and frustrated that I couldn’t be outside enjoying the nice day. I have a very deadly cancer. I can handle that. I have a blood clot in my leg and lung…ok I can handle that too. But now I have this stupid stomach thing that nobody can figure out and I am literally wasting away while I should be hydrating and downing as much nutrition as possible after chemo!
Fast forward to a couple hours later. I was nauseated and threw up again! At this point I almost had to laugh. Not sure where it came from since I didn’t have a damn thing in my stomach. Then the docs gave me a nausea shot called redland to help.
