Sigh. Nothing is wrong. NOTHING.
I had the endoscopic ultrasound yesterday, and the doctor said, everything looked great. The 2 cysts they saw on the MRCP were benign, and he recommended I get them checked out yearly, to make sure they do not grow.
This sucks.
I mean, its fantastic that nothing major is wrong. No surgeries, no hospital visits, or prolonged treatments. The bad news is, I still have pain. Not hideous pain - maybe a 3 on the pain scale, but its consistent. It makes me miserable.
So, with nothing wrong, I have to change my mindset. I have to live with this, so I have to change my frame of mind.
So, the next step is to start tracking everything I eat. Everything. Sigh. Everything I eat, and note how my side feels - pain, fullness or overall aching, and the pain scale. Perhaps I have a sensitivity to food? People can have 'food intolerances', causing pain and gas. Biggest one I have read about so far is gluten or wheat. Crap.
First this week, I will eat as normal and track. Maybe I will track for 2 weeks. I'll look at patterns, and start eliminating food from there.
This SUCKS. But at least I am ok.
I'm gonna wallow in self pity for a little while today, feel sorry for myself, and then get it together, for tomorrow.
