So, I haven’t been keeping up with posts and I feel bad about that. I wanted to write a post on things that have been happening for the past few weeks. A personal update of sorts.

A few weeks ago my stomach was starting to hurt worse than I’ve ever felt, so bad I asked Jason to take me to the emergency room. That was a huge feat for me since I hate doctors and usually just self medicate when I’m feeling bad. Something in me told me otherwise that this wasn’t normal and I need to see someone. I was diagnosed with gall stones. It doesn’t sound like a big deal, but it is. I was given some pain killers and sent home with advice to see a surgeon for advice on if I should have the gall bladder removed.

After the weekend, I had another instance of pain. A pain so bad it brought me to tears. After a second bout at the emergency room, I opted to remove the gall bladder and scheduled a surgery with a surgeon. A surgery I was supposed to have yesterday. It was rescheduled for August 11th.

Although I’ve been feeling a bit out of it due to the pain killers, I’ve decided to go back to work on Monday. I’ve missed about two weeks already and I’ve been feeling a bit useless. I know I’ll feel better when I get back to work. I haven’t needed as many pain medications as before so that’s good.

I guess I just wanted to get a post out here with a bit of an update. Just to let you all know I’m okay and I actually look forward to getting my gall bladder removed.

Another plus is I’ve discovered 2 (not-so-new) reality shows since I’ve been on a T.V. binge: L.A. Ink and Running in Heels
