My Pity Party Failure

For the past few days I have had unrelenting pain. Basically I have put myself back on liquids and am wondering why I had the resection because its the same pain I have been having since February that the resection was suppose to fix, only worse. I did see my surgeon on Friday. He didn't find anything that was too concerning to him, but the pain didn't really get all that bad until Saturday morning. Not sure if I just went too far in my food choices (I had chicken for dinner on Friday, what was I thinking?), or what. All day yesterday and today I have been thinking, if it gets any worse I will take myself to the ER. I am waiting for a call from my GI and I am hoping he will give me something stronger for pain to keep me out of the hospital, but we all know how they are.

So anyway, I had a moment of weakness this morning and started to cry, sob actually. This NEVER happens to me. Maybe 5 times in the 23 years I have had CD have I done the woe is me thing, but I am just DONE!!!!! I was just really starting to cry, when I realized I really had to pull it together because the stomach contractions that go along with crying were killing my belly. And I was scaring my new kittens, they had no idea what was going on and were freaking out. So my whole pity party lasted about two minutes. Over and done. Next one will probably be in about 4 years if anyone wants to come.

I hope you felt better after your cry and it didn't hurt your stomach muscles too much. You must have needed it.
I think crying is very cathartic and I actually wish I could do it more. The last time I had a good cry, unfortunately, it was in my GI's office. LOL....Someone from work had called and been absolutely horrible to me when I was feeling so sick. It was right before I saw my doctor. I was so embrassed at crying like that, especially in front of a virtual stranger!! Feel better and I hope you don't have to go to the ER...

OK, feeling pitiful is one thing but scaring kittens is way over the edge. Nothing wrong with a good sob though , as it cleans out the dirt build up in the old peepers and drains the snoz . Now that all that pent up emotion is out you can work on that silly doc and get some pain med that works plus an explanation of why you are still in pain. If doc does not come up with the proper answer I can tell you where to kick him to make him cry . Hope you feel better soon ...

I was right there crying with you my friend. Not for the same reasons, but just sick and tired of being sick and tired. It does get to you after awhile. Sending healing hugs your way!
