I'm finally back at work as of yesterday, although my digestive system was hardly ready to come back. Every day I'm nauseous and am either *TMI ALERT* throwing up or having diarrea, and now yet another concern...my medication isn't digesting. I have my first appointment with someone other than an ER doctor today. I go to see my new family doctor at 3pm and *HOPEFULLY* he can get the ball rolling on what needs to be done, as I cannot get in to see the Gastro until 4/14.
Thanks SO much to all of you for your continued support! Although, my "strict" diet has come to a halt for the time being, I still feel like this is all part of my journey and God is putting me in this situation to teach me something in the long run.
Just to quickly touch on the "diet" thing. Lately, I've just been eating VERY little about 5-6 times a day. Such as: one whole wheat english muffin, 1 fruit, 1 sugar free jello, etc... and I try to drink as much as I can. Usually about 15 minutes after I eat my stomach starts rumbling and 30 minutes after I'm in the bathroom, sick and in pain. The reason for such a limited diet is as follows: no to Low sugar for my pre-diabetes, no to low fat and no greens for my gall bladder, no to low salt for previous personal and family history of high blood pressure, and low cholesterol for family history of high cholesterol.
So...I'll do some more checking in tomorrow and fill you all in on what the dr. has to say, if anything.

That's horrible! I hope you're feeling back to your old self soon.
That sounds rough :( I hope you are feeling better soon!
Aw, I'm sorry you're going through such a rough time! I hope the docs get you straightened out soon.
Cheer up Jess. They haven't said you couldn't eat dirt. As a Charleston baby you need to read the stories about women eating dirt. :)
