Re: Hi Everyone!!!!

Cassy,

Nice to hear from you. I haven't been on much either. My youngest son graduated yesterday. I cried. I told myself I wouldn't but I was so proud. He was 13th in his class of approx. 600. We counted the chairs in the stadium bcs my son didn't know how many was in his class. He doesn't pay attention. He had one teacher that gave him a B+ and that brought his GPA to 3.937 I think. He was upset that he wasn't in the top 10. He was always on the honor roll from kindergarten. All A's, every year. He is a very smart young man. I lost it when he came out and showed me his diploma. Am I nuts or just a proud mother?

Anyhoo. So glad to hear from you but so sad that you werer treated that way in the hospital. I relate to your story. Did you end up getting some pain medication even though you didn't want it in the beginning? I hope so. My twin sister has gall stones. It sucks and she has many problems. I know how bad it is. It's best to take care of it early. I am sure you know that. I am just glad someone was nice to you and sorry you had to go through the pain of the IV. Sometimes they suck, period.

Today is Monday.,.... .everyone gone and I need some really good time for me.....relaxation day although it probabaly won't happen, have too much to do. The graduation party is going well. My son feels guilty about me spending too much money. I ordered supplies (not food) 100% more than my twin sister ordered bcs we have 200 people invited so I need at least 150 plates, etc. She ordered 75. It cost me $425 for plates, decorations, keepsakes, etc. That's not even with food. My ex said yesterday that he would help more with the food and I just need to ask so he is getting chicken catered so I don't have to make so much food for 150 people. I have several things I am making.

Next thing....... ......... Let's Go Red Wings!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! Need one more game to win to get the Stanley cup and we may get tickets tonight from my husband's work. We'll see. He landed a big buisiness with the military so he deserves it. What a game that will be bcs we are at home for the next 2 games I think. I am so pumped up about this. I want thim to win soooooooooooooooooo oo bad. We watch all the games and yelll at the t.v. We really get into it. It's the only sport we watch and we us it for family time.

So, there is my life right now. I hope you get better soon. Take care of yourself please and again nice to get an update. I am totally not ignoring you. I am just extremely busy.

Hugs and Love,

Hey guys!!! I just wanted to check-in ,and say HI!!! I have really missed you guys!!!!!. I have been really sick . Thursday I ended up going to the ER.I couldnt stop vomiting and the pain was un-real.It is in my upper stomach almost in the middle and a little to the right.I had alot of green bile and couldnt stop puking and heaving.My mom was going to call 911 so I gave in and went on my own.:)Anyways,I had a jerk of a doctor and nurse(will tell you in just a minute)They put me in priority and wile I was waiting the nurse gave me an anti-neas med that disolved onmy tongue.It was so bad I had to be pushed in and out in a weelchair.So, the idiot doc thought I might have gallstones and ordered an ultrasound.Thannk god the u/s ladywas nice. Took awile for that and she asked if I had heart problems and I told her about my nerves and all that,asked if

she could even see the heart area and she said nothat she was looking at my internal organs and she was just asking out of curiosity.?end of that part.So,finally after a few hrs the doc came in and said they seen something and he thinks it may be Gallstones.I was suppose to see my pcp the next day(fri)but she isnt there on friday so I will be calling tomorow for an appt.He says I need a HIDA scan to completly rule outthe Gallbladder, so for now it is that stupid word "of unknown etiology". He says they dont have access to the HIDA machine in the middle of the night,but I think hejust had it in for me.haha.he was a true jerk!!!! So,I am on a low fat,no fried food,meat,etc. .. but that is ok since anything I eat upsets my stomach anyway.So,for now I ameating very light and ridiculously healthy. Maybe I will lose some pounds.hehe. ...Hello to all the new members!!!! I am so so behind but will try to say hello to each of you

as soon as I can.I have been in bed or on the couch all day,to sick to evencheck my email on my phone.I know I have missed alot but I will eventually catch up.Just gimme a month or two! hehe..Ok,well back to my jerk doc story.....So,we get to the ER and I finally get to see a doc but he was a rude rude jerk!!! Sorry guys,I have never been talked to this bad. He started to ask me the regular older questions and we get to the part of diseases,etc. . and I start to tell him my dx's and he dosnt have a clue what im saying..This I could tell and tried tooffer as simple but detailed of an explanation inhe middle of crying and screaming in pain,oh and vomiting,and he says ok,ok,and gestures his hand(like you would gesture to say "Cmon,move it along" or Hurry it up,all moving his eyes and stuff)let it go then he says what do you do for a living and my mom says that imdisabled and the doctor looks at me

and I say im disabled and really sick and he goes off saying,"You people that say your disabled its ridiculous,and you use itas much as you can,just let everything go and blame it on disabilty,blah blah,and how these days we will find any little thing and say Diability!!! Yes.this is real!!! Canyou believe this? I was beyond mad and he knew I was having a hard time talking to.So,I yelled at him and told him that he couldnt label m,e and that he dosnt knowme and that I was there for help and not to be treated like crap!!!! So,after this he says fine,and says he would get me some pain medicine and I told hime I didnt want painmedicine,and he says Oh,Really?Like hes in shock,and I said No I dont,and he says what do I want then?And I say I want to stop puking and I want my stomach to stop hurting.Well. I ended up getting some cuz my mom but the minute he walked away I was telling my mom and rene that I wanted to leave and I really was.I

have neverbeen treated this poorly.I felt so bad that this jerk of a doctor could even be a doc,I swear it felt like I was in an Outer Limits epesode.So,then after the nurse takes overto do an I.V. He was already rude,I think he was mad that I spoke back to the doc,but he said nothing to help or even a smile.And he starts trying to find a vein.I told himwere to go but he didnt listen and he was rough and I kept telling him how bad it hurt and my mom finally said something cuz he just kept poking and jabbing it in,and he says,look,I got the needle in,it is fine,there is no reason why it would hurt and im like well it does,and he says well you have 2 options,I can take it out and re-do itor leave it,and I said if he took it out I would leave so just leave it.Arghhhh.. ..So when I get back from the u/s my mom tells me the jerk doc came to visitand appologized and wanted to tell me.He told us that he was sorry for speaking to me that

way and he didnt mean to label me but it was just that what he described wasrreally all he sees all day.WTH!!!!? ??He says he sees so many young people that become disabled or even slightly and they give up on life and throw everything away and he shouldnt have assumed that was my case.So,I told him that I say I am disabled cuz I am and because ,like with him,most the time nobody knows what my illness is,and he says he understands. and hes very sorry,there is more but this is too long.Sorry guys....I just had to share with you guys.It was/is such a nightmare!!! ! I will write more soon.... luv ya guys!!!!hugz,cassy
