do you think that's enough?! cheese and rice. i tried to ignore them but ive been worse since frieday and i cant deal with this shit anymore.
so im going to stop taking them and see what happens. oh the joys of being me...

other than that, i guess things are ok. i was supposed to see the new neurologist and i met with him for all of maybe 15 minutes. the entire time i was at the office i was running to the bathroom constantly... 2 1/2 freaking hours. omg. the pain... the... ugh. just terrible. i doubled my nausea meds and took immodium. 2 hours after i was ok. but cheese and rice. friday was just as bad... my sister and i went to the movies, then i ran to the bathroom. then she took me to jcp to use the bathroom. then she had to drop me off at target to use the bathroom. then my dad had to pick me up there, and then we stopped at a gas station and by the time we got home i was back in the bathroom and then right to bed. this erosive gastritis mixed with cushings and whatever else i have blows... literally.

but things are ok. ive got a song in my heart and a smile on my face. and everythings gonna be alright
