Medical stuff

I really hate medical stuff. As if I haven't had enough trouble with my neck and elbows. I have had some pain on my right side since I had my tubes tied about 8 months ago. It has steadily gotten worse so I went to the Dr. on Friday. They did some tests and my liver, kidneys, and pancreas are fine so I need to go tomorrow and have a CT scan. Unfortunately I have to drink this white chalky junk before I go. :( I know it's not my GI system, probably an ovary or something, but I guess it's standard protocol. And of course I have to miss a class which just irritates me to no end. But they don't do CT's of the stomach area after 11:00 because you can't eat or drink prior and I guess they don't want you to starve to death. Like that will happen with my excess poundage! And of course the only follow up I can get is on Thursday morning, so I'll have to miss another class. Either that or wait until next week. AARRGGHH! And of course the pain is getting worse by the day, so I don't want to have to wait. So if you see me and I'm irritable just ignore me. This is why. Mike was sweet and offered to come with me for the CT scan, but really there is nothing he can do and they won't give me the results right then. Plus I plan on jetting to campus right afterwards so I don't have to miss more school! Okay, I'm taking a nap now because I was up most of the night and I have a Financial Peace University class I need to facilitate tonight. No rest for the weary!
