Feeling Frustrated

This last week has been one with an extremely irritable tummy. I am fairly certain that I am having gallbladder attacks. Actually, studies show that my gallbladder is enlarged, tender and contains sludge. I am supposed to now make an appointment with my gastroenterologist for further testing. This happened the first week in September as well. I fought it out and suddenly, it all cleared up. This one doesn't seem to want to clear up suddenly. Twice this past week I had to have IV fluids for dehydration. At least the fluids help you feel better, as getting an IV started especially the first trip, was tedious and very painful. Then the medications react faster to make you feel less nauseous and quickly helps relieve the pain. However having to go to such measures is definitely a drag and not at all convenient. So I wait and stay awake listening to thunder roll through my digestive system. It feels even worse than it sounds and I seem now to be completely off balance and I can't get it to calm despite modified, bland diet and over the counter medications. I would much rather be feeling creative with words instead of waiting yet on another diagnostic test to relocate the normal, bouncy Annette who for now seems to be a fictitious character. Feeling frustrated is no fun when it returns with little warning and seems extended in duration and lacks of immediate resolution........................
