View Blog    I'M NOT SICK...I'M PREGNANT....     As I promised I went to see the doctor today. I had promised half the thoughts population and the entire staff at my work (and when there are medical staff involved, you don't mess around). So I left work at lunch to go to 'Urgent Care' (not my favorite place). I went there rather than my own physician bc they had all the equipment to do almost any type of test on the premises. And they poked, prodded, stuck, pinched and jabbed for a LONGGGGGGGGGGGG time. I peed, bled, coughed, looked up, looked down, said 'AHHHH', choked, and stripped for them. And.....drum roll please.............IT SEEMS I AM PREGNANT....Yes, I am pregnant with little bitty gallstones. I am due to give birth whenever these little critters deem fit to disolve or whatever. I am now on yet another medicne  to try and disolve them and if they don't cooperate then its a thing called laparoscopy surgery which doesn't sound too bad. I'd be in for a day and out and about shortly thereafter. Modern medicine....who knew?? They  told me I could have gottent them bc I'm a female.....wtf? Who told? and the fact that I've recently lost a LOT of weight (like I want my fat ass back again) and the fact that I have diabetes (another recent discovery....god, the things I could share with you all). They did a thing on me called a CT scan and that, along with the gallon of blood I gave them (with only 5 sticks this time...HURRAY!!) told them the story of my woes. They also gave me some kickass painkillers.... better than anything I've had for a while for sure.  So, I'm not dying.... YEEEEE HAWWWW!!!! On a serious note.....I was scared. I avoided the dr bc I was scared. This has turned out to be not so good, but not as bad as I thought either. I am very fortunate to have some ppl that believed and loved me enough to push me to go have myself checked out. I have yet to tell my kids though. I don't see the reason to worry them if there is really nothing to worry them over. Its not really a great time to get everyone all upset anyway. So I want to thank my family here for the support. You never let me down....NEVER! I love you....*she finally lets out that deep breath and relaxes* :)   P.S sorry for scaring you all with the 'pregnant' thing...hope no one took offense...   SK     Posted by lastblastkl on 2008-07-24 19:04:59 | Rating: | Views: 275     Email This to a Friend Friend's Email *    Friend's Name*    Your Name*    Security code*    Refresh Image                 Print This Blog Post     Bookmark: Delicious  Digg  Reddit  Facebook  StumbleUpon    Permalink:      Blog Comments    Im glad you went to the doctor =) And I wish you the best of luck! **Please Check Out My Blog** Posted by  Deep93  on 2008-07-24 19:23:43     I'm thankful you found out what the problem is.

OK..I'm sitting here having a friggin heart attack! No not because you said you were pregnant, but because I read your earlier post about your attacks. I couldn't even comment to it, I had to hurry and find out what happened to you. My heart was racing. Now that I am a little more relieved, I can tell you, my sister had her gull bladder removed the same way, it is very simple. So did my dad. It was a very simply surgery, very non invasive. So please don't worry!! I will pray healing prayers for you. OK? You had me very scared it was something worse. Boy...my computer crashes, and I'm away for a few days and all hell breaks loose. Sheeesh! God Bless you honey! Posted by  keepdreaming  on 2008-07-24 23:38:17     you have some gall gal we were all scared to death and then thought you were preggers Im so glad you are ok but I heard those pesky things are really painful yikes! take care Posted by  roe  on 2008-07-25 02:21:19     Okay K, but now since you've announced it, I think we need to think about names ... how about Pebbles, and Lil'rock, Stoney ummm... lol you get the picture :) Oh now when would you like the (baby) shower?? lol Posted by  EasyToSay  on 2008-07-25 03:07:40     So glad it was gall stones after all. Sorry to scare you about the ectopic but I believe all women should be aware of it. It was the nearest I'll ever get to death so it is worth making sure people are aware. The laperoscopy is very simple and you should be fine in no time. How wonderful that you can now feel relieved and ready to get on with your life. Posted by  overthehillandfar...  on 2008-07-25 03:46:48     Good to hear its not serious, hope your lil stones decide they are ready for the big world soon. lol I loved your description of the urgent care visit,it gives me flash backs. Posted by  shuttermom  on 2008-07-25 08:55:19     I'm glad you are okay!!!! Posted by  KarKar  on 2008-07-25 11:34:23     I'm so glad you found out the cause of your painful attacks. Gallbladder problems seem to be making the rounds here on thoughts. Anotherdaze just had hers removed. You had me going, girl ... on the pregnant thing. I was feeling a bit sleepy this morning, but I'm wide awake now. Take care of you. Peace. Posted by  ColoradoDreamin  on 2008-07-25 11:45:51     Holy Cow you had me going!!! Seriously though, that's painful from what I hear, so I'm really sorry to hear that but at least you know what is wrong! ....and painkillers are always good :) Posted by  TheAlreadyJaded  on 2008-07-25 11:57:37     I was praying for you last night. Thank God it's nothing too horrid! Yes, I just had mine removed on the 16th. I feel worlds better and loved all the great pain killer that I was shot up with in the hospital. Oh it was a needed break from the crippling pain! I wrote a blog before the surgery that was about those wonderful drugs! I'm glad they fixed my problem or I would most likely become hooked! There is also a pic of my belly after I came home from the surgery. Well wishes and speedy recovery! Posted by  anotherdaze  on 2008-07-25 12:51:36     I'm so happy it is nothing too bad! You must be relieved as well!! Hope they get out soon! Posted by  country_girl  on 2008-07-25 13:09:00     Dr. Circe thought that might be the problem. Dam I'm good! Get well soon. Posted by  circe  on 2008-07-25 13:26:43     so that was the "stone in your shoe" all this time that had you irritated(exhausted, sick, agonizing pain)! You're tougher than me...i'm sure i woulda been in the E.R. at the first twinge of pain. Guard those little pills, and get better soon!! So, will u get a break from work? hopefully PTO! Posted by  paperlily  on 2008-07-25 14:49:03     stick..these little 'critters' are a pain in my ass...or stomach..LOL Either way they're a pain. Don't know who the father is yet...and he told me he used precautions....DAMN!!!!!!! Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:29:22     kd...you didn't just call me a 'little shit' did you??? LOL I'm sorry i scared you so bad. i was pretty scared too..believe me. sent you an email...:) Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:31:57     roe I'm starting to feel worse now than i did before...YIKE! these 'stones' are nasty and hurt like hell. i hope the meds work but am prepared if they don't. today wasn't too bad...:) thanks Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:37:36     kellie...you're pretty funny there girl...nice names too...LOL from the way the dr talked though i'll need a few more names....When could we do this shower?? Who can we invite? What kinds of presents do you give to gall stones? This could get pretty interesting! Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:40:42     overthehill...no you didnt' scare me at all...I knew it couldn't be that bc I think (if memory serves) that you sort of have to have a sexual encounter first...didn't happen. i would have really been shocked to hear those words. :) Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:45:39     shuttermom....i hope the 'rolling stones' (as i affectionately call them now) just disappear into gall bladder land. karkar...thanks for being so sweet. cd...how can an organ that basically doesn't do much give me such a pain??? LOL aj...it hurts like hell, and when if finally disappears...its heaven. i have joined the 'i hate gall bladders' club...i'm president! AD....i'm glad ur ok...i'm taking ur word that its not too bad. And the pain killers are a 'plus'. I'mmmmmm....sooooo....haaaaaappppppy....*as she dances around the room* la di da di da....:) CG...thanks sweetie...i'm really fine. Posted by  lastblastkl  on 2008-07-25 16:53:24
