LISTEN TO ME - Sharon

[Guest guest]

Hi Sharon

I know your freaking out - BUT - I want you to listen to me.

Please.

Your nausea is from stress and worry. That is all.

Your thinking yourself into a state of panic.

There is nothing to be afraid of, my friend, I promise.

I have never lied to you....so please believe me now.

Tomarrow will be nothing more than some consultation, and maybe some simple labs.

The doctor will just tell you good things - things you need to know - so that you can heal.

It will be no big deal.

You can do this as easy as pie.

Now, I want you to eat some food, and sit back and try to relax.

Maybe take a long bubble bath.

Think about something nice - like maybe something your kid did that was funny.

Kids are great - they make us laugh.

Ok?

love

Don,

I have been sick for the last two days with nausea. I don't know if it's my gallbladder or my liver or my tooth. But something is terribly wrong. I don't think stress makes u nauseas. My husband said he would go with me.

I will ask the doc if i still have the hep c to find out the viral load and the other liver levels. I know I will be going to see a liver specialist, I know there is something wrong. Well, nothing I can do but get the results. I probably won't have them tomorrow, and I don't want him to call me on the phone so I figure maybe next week he will see me, not sure how they do this. He is a good doc but not a liver specialist. I do like him but I am not sure what he's gonna do when I tell him. Not looking forward to it.

I look at it this way, my husband, who did more drugs than a pharmacy could stack, and drank but not a lot and he has nothing wrong with him, well I am feeling pretty good next to him, lol. He also had his gallbladder removed and almost died. He bled internally after the removal for some reason, no idea why. But this nausea has to stop it's making me ill. I am making an appt with a dentist too. I am so sick it's not funny. I don't know what the hell is wrong, I'm burping a little but the nausea i can't even do anything today.

I will keep everyone informed. My apt. is 12:20 ugh. Wait til the doc hears what i have to say, lol Well my husband will be there so I won't be able to get a word in edgewise, maybe that's a good thing. I took Maalox i think it is. It's for indigestion. That's what it feels like.

ttyl and fill you in.

thanks

sharon

Hi Sharon

I just want to encourage you to remain calm.

Your going to do just fine at your doc appmt tomarrow.

Your going to learn some very helpful things, and get some answers.

You may even be pleasently surprised.

Ask your doctor to give you these 2 blood tests:

- Viral Load - [to show if you are actually chronic or not, and what VL you have]

- Liver Function - [to see where your liver stats stand - ALT, AST, etc]

A tiny prick, and you do need to know these things, so you can make plans for YOUR future.

We can help you understand the results when you get them.

I know it will be a big relief to put this step behind you.

I was freaking before my first doc visit too.

REMEMBER - your not going to die.

Most all HCV complications are treatable, and life does go on.

AND

By you going through this step first, you will be able to help others in your family too.

I am blasting you with love, calm, good results, and lotsa good energy.

You can do this.

love
