So here we are in quarantine. All of a sudden I start feeling some pain on my right side. I am talking sharp stabbing pain. I make a appointment with my family doctor and of course he asks me to take some Pepcid and take Ibuprofen. He sends me to get an ultrasound and I have a fatty liver.
Story not over…I start having this pain even sharper. There has to be something else, right? A fatty liver cannot be causing this much pain. So yes, people, this chicken right here decides to go to the emergency room. That just shows you how strong this pain is because I need to go to by myself. My husband did drive me but I had to put on my mask and walk in thinking I was going to be surrounded by Corona infected people coughing and sneezing on me but no, it was a very pleasant experience. No patients in the waiting room. Just me. They took me right in and connected me to an IV. They also gave me Pepcid, like what the hell! They also gave me a nice cocktail of pain medicine. After a pricey CT scan, fatty liver. This is all they found. So now I need to see a specialist via telemedicine so they can tell be how obese I am and have me lose weight. The struggle really is real and will power is going to play such an important part. Before I wanted to lose weight for looks and to fit into those nice cute clothes. Now, I need to lose weight for my life. My appointment with a specialist is in a couple of weeks. I will keep you posted.
