Good morning, lovies! I'm sorry I have not posted in awhile. Unfortunately the old saying "no news is good news" doesn't apply here today :(
This week has been a toughie for me, and I've been trying to overcome the obstacles put in front of me. Namely, this naughtyfever that started Thursday night!
It all started with a typical cold. Stuffy nose, sore throat, and maybe a little cough. That was Wednesday. On Thursday it became accompanied by fever and chills, but with my stubbornness, optimism, and some Advil, I managed to subdue the symptoms long enough to return to work on Friday.
I swear, I was fine on Friday! I was very energetic at work and except for a little tightness in the throat, I was ok. I CONVINCED myself I was ok.. Again, with some stubbornness, optimism, and Advil.
This morning however..
The fever is back with an even more sore throat (infection perhaps??) Bodyaches and something else I dread. Abdominal pain.
Abdominal pain + fever means doctor's visit. When doctor's find out you have a fever AND abdominal pain, it usually means hospital. Last July I had this issue and had to undergo numerous tests to rule out infections/appendicitis/gallbladder issues/cancer/you name it.
I'm hoping that if this is a repeat from July that they won't have to do all that. Just skip it because my tests were all negative! They just found a suspicious mass on my ovary, and I'm pretty sure I had the flu or something.
My motto has always been "go big or go home" (bodybuilding term hehehe) and unfortunately the same motto goes for viruses/bacteria that enter my body!!
I'm very upset that I have to miss more work to see a doctor because I have a stupid fever and stupid abdominal pain (which can best be described as a sharp, sudden pain that shoots laterally across my navel). I do not know what that means.. I'm sad because the last place I want to be when I'm sick is a doctor's office or an emergency room!!
It's probably nothing serious like last time.
I'll keep you guys posted!!
Peace out! Ciao! Au revoir!
