Allie & The Slippage

My lapband doctor has an Upper GI scheduled for me to check and see if anything is stuck or if the band has slipped again. 

Great.

That's all I need.  Surgery.  I'm praying that it hasn't slipped.  Please pray too :(

Allie & The Residual Anger

Where I wasn't feeling well yesterday (I'm still not 100% better), I was in a really pissy mood.  Well....much to the dismay of my coworkers, some of that pissiness carried over into today. I drank a big glass of milk last night before bed, which usually is fine, but it didn't set well with my tummy, so at 2am it made its way back up.  Since I was up so late, I didn't go to the doctor this morning.  BUT, I did call my Primary Care's office today and will be going to see her soon about all this mess.  I was just there last Thursday getting some lab work done.  Ug. 

I've been straight up mean today.  I've bitched and moaned about almost everything and just generally didn't put up with any shit (whereas on a normal day, I do). 

My side isn't hurting as bad today, but the pain is back in my shoulders again.  :(

Allie & The Painful Gallstone

Ok, quick update.  I'm currently having an awful pain in the mid-right side of my abdomen.  This weekend I had really sharp pains between my shoulder blades.  On top of the nausea and dizziness, WebMD tells me it is more thank likely gallstones.  yay.

I have way to much to do tonight than sit at the local Urgent Care.  I work til 8, I have a meeting at 8:30 with my Appalachian Studies Conference group, and then I have two chapters to read for my Education class and an online quiz to take in conjunction with those chapters. 

If it IS gallstones...they'll still be there in the morning...right?

:-\

Pray for me y'all!

Allie & The Game of Catch Up

Wow...I haven't posted in a while.  I got overwhelmed with school and work, and lots of other things.  I made straight A's last semester, so I guess that 3 month sense of drowning paid off. 

I have lost about 10 pounds since I last posted, which I know isn't a lot, but hey, it's still 10 pounds off.

The sausage toe is all healed up, I've been jogging a couple times, but still haven't gotten into the swing of things.  TH and I joined the YMCA in January, but then he got sick, I got sick, then I got sick again.  I'm still trying to figure out what's going on.  I stay light headed, and it's hard for me to keep food down.  Certain days I can eat a cow and be fine, but others, I take a bite at lunch and I feel sick all day long.  I have a sneaky feeling that my band is too tight. 

TH and I are still together :) I'm happy, head over heels, and wish I had more time in the day to see him.  Our 6 month anniversary was last week, and of course, WV had a snow storm, which put a damper on plans.  We ended up going to see Movie 43 (don't waste your time, lol, it was awful), had a quick dinner out, and then made a b-line straight to my place before the roads got too bad.  He gave me a key to his apartment.  :) Big step, I know.  But (excuse me for being cheesy), with that key, I melted into one big Allie puddle on the floor of TGIFridays.  My New Year's Resolution was to be more organized, but I'm thinking I should add a late amendment to it.  I need to learn to express my emotions better.  I'm so reserved when it comes to showing someone how I feel about them, and I know he has a hard time reading me sometimes.  So, since I'm doing well with my organization, I'll start on that.  :)
