Sooo Sick and Miserable

I still haven't gotten better in weeks. I've been super nauseous, throwing up bad and switching between constipation and watery diarrhea. I have had a couple "ok" days in between but not much.

I went to see my doctor  (my actual dr and not a work in) yesterday. He put me on antibiotics even though my labs came back fine (always baffles me how they can when i feel like THIS). Hopefully it'll rid my body of some of the bacteria and I'll start feeling better.

He also finally got me scheduled for the camera endoscopy. So today is prep (yay....) and tomorrow at 7:15am I am going in to swallow the camera. I will wear a device for 8 hours and then return it. It will take a couple weeks for them to read the images but hopefully they'll be able to find out what is going on!

I think it's funny because people keep saying things about feeling bad because I am so sick. I just keep telling them, it's life for me! I can't let it get me down or I would always be down! I have learned to get used to it and I am just thankful that i don't have to worry about losing my job or trting to make it through this. It also makes me a lot more thankful for the good days or even the ok days! I feel like i have a lot more appreciation for life than most and I'm good with that. Of course, i get frustrated with all the tests and when I'm laying in bed in agony, i cry and want it to end, but at the end of the day i know I'll be ok! :)
