I had yet another test today to see what is causing my recurring stomach issues. Today was a funny Gastric Emptying Test, where you fast and they feed you scrambled eggs with a little bit of radioactive elements and then they take pictures of your stomach every hour for 4 hours. My doctor is trying to see if the food I'm eating is hanging around in my stomach longer than it should which may be the cause of my pain. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this is the issue because it's treatable with dietary restrictions and medicine. And quite honestly, I'm tired of being poked and prodded and still feeling like crap.
My hubby wants to take me out to dinner to celebrate some good news at my work, but honestly, I'm really tired of eating because I feel gross and bloated immediately after eating. It's totally not worth it. And I've got to be honest, you'd think I would be loosing weight, nope, not happening! I actually think I've gained two pounds from all the rice and bread I'm eating to absorb the acids in my stomach! So boo-hoo for me.
Ok, I'm done ranting. Please keep your fingers crossed that the test shows something!
