Plaidophile: Yet another boring post about my stomach

Yet another boring post about my stomach (health)

by fluffy at 11:29 PM

So, the endoscopy didn't find anything (those of you who follow me on Facebook got to see the inside of my stomach, even!), so last week I had an ultrasound because my gastroenterologist is pretty convinced it might be gallstones. I'll get the results of the ultrasound soon enough, I guess. The tech of course wouldn't let me see the screen while it was happening or tell me anything about what she saw, so I guess I can just fret about it for a while.

I still have the pain that I thought was ulcer pain, and I guess it does happen more after eating fat-containing foods than at other times, so that fits a gallstone diagnosis I guess. Hopefully this ultrasound was enough to figure out what it was, and if i need my gallbladder removed it can wait until after Song Fight, because no way do I want to miss that.

I wish you well. You know what? This has also relevance on the teeth. Some people says that based on their experiences, once you left your stomach empty, you'll also get a bad odor within your mouth because what you've got in your stomach is plenty of various acids that could accumulate by your mouth. Just sharing.
