Journal FortKnox's Journal: Doctor results are in.... 10

Journal by FortKnox on Wednesday July 07, 2004 @02:08PM

What do I have? A glitch is the current answer. Since it went away and I got IBS, its being called an "IBS Thing" unless it happens again. Possibility its gall stones, but an ultrasound is unnecessary atm. He was surprised (and freaked me out a bit) that they didn't do any tests to determine if it was my heart, cause even though it was 'low' for the heart, it still could have been that.

He did notice my thyroid is sticking out a bit, so I got some bloodwork for that (hypothyroidism... dad and wife both have it). And that was that. Oh well... here's hoping it doesn't happen again.

    Dad, you can't get hypothyroidism from Mom.
    No! No, no, when I married your mother I took everything that came with her -- including thryoid conditions!

Puppies?

Oh.

Sorry, wrong journal.

IBS sounds a whole lot like the IBC root beer I drank growing up. Which means everytime you write about IBS, I think root beer...ya bastard.

And I'm thirsty now. ;)

  $70 for one month? Sweet hell, I can't afford that kinda thing. How about I just eat a buncha laxatives... isn't that kinda the same?
  
  In all seriousness... doing you really good? Was it worth the $70?
