When you're just feeling off...

    Today I feel off, I woke up feeling off! For starters, I woke up and immediately had a headache, which usually never happens. Generally a sign that I either didn't sleep long enough or I slept really hard and my body feels dehydrated because of it. So I drank some water and took some Tylenol and laid back down.

    Because on top of that, I had a stomach ache. Just a slight, dull nausea that made me feel totally and completely off. Which feeling nauseated is NOT something abnormal for me, unfortunately. I go and see a Gastroenterologist Sept. 8th which is the soonest I could get in for an Endoscopy. 

They'll be looking for:

• gastroesophageal reflux disease.
• ulcers.
• cancer link.
• inflammation, or swelling.
• precancerous abnormalities such as Barrett's esophagus.
• celiac disease.
• strictures or narrowing of the esophagus.
• blockages.

    And anything else that they might think could be linked to my recent tummy issues and gallbladder removal from a year and a half ago (which is when the issues started occurring!) 

    While I pray there is nothing major wrong with me, I am almost hoping there IS something wrong with me because if not, I'll feel even crazier than I already do! It's hard as hell to explain to people that your labs came back almost perfect but you still feel like shit all the time! Even when you are doing EVERYTHING in your power to make yourself a healthier person! 

    So that's what's going on today! I am hoping for answers sooner rather than later and hopefully I get them with his specialist!
