This isn't going to be long, because I have a lot of work to get done....
I had my endoscopy today and the doctor couldn't really find anything wrong. He mentioned IBS but didn't explain a lot about it. Of course I googled it when I got home and found out this....basically, it's what they diagnose when they can't find any other source of your discomfort. They even mentioned it being fairly common in those who suffer from depression. DING DING DING!
The bad thing is, I feel like the doctor (and maybe everyone else) still feels like it's all in my head. Like, since it's associated with depression, that I'm just feeling nervous or upset or whatever and have an upset tummy. THIS IS REAL PAIN!!! I have a couple of prescriptions to help manage it, so I hope that this is the end of all the doctor visits and I can just get on with my life.
On top of this, I was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure. Add to that the depression, occasional asthma problems, and all this weight I have to lose.....I feel like I've been living in doctors' offices for the last 2 months. I'm ready for a break. I need to have a healthier me!
